If Bianca Censori and Kanye West are truly headed for divorce, the lack of a prenuptial agreement could make things complicated—and extremely expensive.
According to multiple reports, the couple never signed a prenup when they married in December 2022. Under California law, that puts all earnings and assets acquired during the marriage on the table. Legal experts say Censori could be entitled to a substantial payout, potentially as much as half of West’s earnings during the marriage. With West’s net worth estimated around $400 million, that could mean a settlement far greater than the rumored $5 million figure circulating online.
One of the most talked-about assets is a $35 million Beverly Hills mansion Kanye reportedly purchased during their marriage. If confirmed, that property alone could become a major point of contention in any financial split. And while it’s easy to focus on luxury homes and headlines, California’s community property laws also factor in debt. If Kanye lost money during the relationship—which isn’t impossible given his turbulent financial headlines—Bianca could theoretically owe him money.
Despite tabloid speculation, there’s no confirmed filing or finalized settlement. Some outlets suggest the couple agreed to a verbal deal capping Bianca’s payout at $5 million, but without anything legally binding, experts say she could claim significantly more.
Whether or not the split becomes official, the situation underscores the high financial stakes that come with skipping a prenup—especially when one half of the couple is one of the most controversial and wealthy artists in modern music history.
For now, both camps have denied some of the more sensational claims. But if the rumors prove true, Bianca Censori may soon find herself at the center of one of hip-hop’s most expensive breakups.
