Kanye West and Bianca Censori’s rumored marital issues were reportedly a publicity stunt orchestrated by West to divert attention from a lawsuit filed by his former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta.

West, 47, who now goes by Ye, was rumored to be heading for divorce last week, less than two years after marrying Australian architect Censori, 29, following claims that they had ‘drifted apart.’

However, just hours later, the couple seemingly confirmed they were still together, engaging in PDA in Tokyo.

Now, insiders suggest the stunt was staged to distract from serious allegations that West drugged and raped Pisciotta at a party with Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who is currently awaiting trial on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and other offenses.

"Kanye is concerned that his new lawsuit will drag him down to Diddy’s level, and he has been speaking to his legal reps," the insider told DailyMail.com.

"He is paying attention to what is going on with Diddy, and some believe that the publicity stunt was a way of overshadowing the details of the harrowing lawsuit."

Influencer and former OnlyFans star Pisciotta initially sued West in June, accusing him of sexually harassing and stalking her while she worked for him from 2021 to 2022.

West denied the allegations, calling them "baseless" and accusing her of "blackmail and extortion."

However, on Friday night, Pisciotta submitted an updated 88-page lawsuit that further detailed West’s alleged sexual obsessions, including a fetish for wanting to sleep with the mothers of his sexual targets.

He allegedly sent Pisciotta a screenshot on September 28, 2022—two months before his secret marriage to Censori—of a text exchange between him and Censori, where he expressed a desire to have sex with her mother, Alexandra.

"I wanna f**k your mum," he allegedly wrote to Censori. "Before she leaves."

According to the lawsuit, he also asked Pisciotta, "Should I add I meant I want you to watch me f**k your mom?"

At the time, Censori was in the US on a work visa, and her mother was visiting Los Angeles from Australia.
