Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's marriage was hit by divorce rumours following the rapper's nervous breakdown and subsequent treatment at the UCLA Medical Centre. However, a new report in E! Online has claimed that they two stars are "very much together".

A source told the website, "They were very sweet together and were very much together. They are going through a lot but from what it seems like they are doing it together and getting through it. It's been a very rough year for her."

The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star has maintained a low profile after she was robbed at gunpoint in a Paris in October. Another source told E! News that Kim and Kanye were going "strong" and were doing "fine as a couple".

"Just because the paparazzi don't see him, they're like, 'Oh, Kanye's not with Kim anymore.' That's bulls**t," the source said.

The Pablo singer received outpatient care after undergoing psychiatric evaluation at the UCLA Medical Center and was released from hospital on 5 December. Kanye later met US President-elect Donald Trump on 13 December at Trump Towers, but Kim was not present during the meeting.

Earlier, singer John Legend spoke about Kanye on Watch What Happens Live and said: "We're just rooting for Kanye to feel better and get better. You know, we're all fans of him, and friends with him, and we want him to be well and be able to do what he loves to do."

When asked about how the couple were doing post the Paris robbery incident, the All Of Me singer revealed: "Yes, she's good. You know, it's tough. It's tough to deal with all of this."
