The Jesus Walks hitmaker was married to reality superstar Kim, 44, from 22014 until 2022 and they have North, 12, Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, as well as six-year-old Psalm together. In the opening moments of the trailer, Kanye declares: "I've been off my meds for five months now," but Kim can be heard saying through tears: "Your personality was not like this a few years ago," as he storms out of a dressing room with her name on it. As the trailer goes on, Kanye explains that he has a 'calling' in life, but when Kim pleads: "We could talk about that later, but..." he cuts her off and says: "It ain't no but!"

He can be heard saying: "Yeah, I was just being embarrassed or ashamed to cry, man." Further clips show the rapper spending time with his children, making music and working on his fashion designs. A church sermon can be heard over shots of prison inmates which says: "When we're at the prisons, professing how Jesus can set you free, it's true." "Thank you, Jesus. I decided to run," Kanye declares as a clip of himself holding up a sign that read YE4PRESIDENT popped up on the screen." But things took a dramatic turn when the star was seen travelling with his eldest daughter and he yells: "I almost killed my daughter." But in a worrying moment, he describes his dependency on his medication as he says: "I'd rather be dead than to be on medication. Either they destroy me or I destroy it." He adds: "It's a sad dream. They're killing our ability to think outside of the box. And I'm almost like a masochist. like whatever I want, when I want. It's worse." In the final shots of the teaser, he reflects on how his life intertwines with his art as he says: "You know the best thing about being an artist and bipolar? Anything you do and say is an art piece." Kim, 44, and Kanye, 47, called time on their 10-year romance in 2021 and their divorce was finalised in November 2022. Kanye, legally known as Ye, married Australian architect Bianca Censori the following month but it's reported the pair have split just days on from their naked dress stunt at the Grammy Awards and Kanye's anti-Semitic outbursts on social media. Kim opened up about the breakdown of her marriage to Kanye as her sister Khloe reunited with her ex-husband Lamar Odom after nine years. Khloe admitted to her older sibling that had it not been for Lamar's drug use, she and the basketball player "would still be married 'til today". Khloe's confession prompted Kim to look back on the end of her time with the father of her four children and admit that when a "person's personality" changes it can "force your marriage to end". She told Khloe: "That's the hardest part. I've been there." Kim continued: "When you don't foresee something happening that really changes a person's personality and then they're not the same person and you can't ever get that person back, but you can't live with the new person. I get it." The synopsis of the upcoming documentary, which is directed by filmmaker Nico Ballesteros, reads: "Then eighteen-year-old Nicolas Ballesteros is thrust into the eye of the storm that is Ye, a man building empires in music, fashion, and faith. Coming to terms with Bipolar, his collapsing marriage, vanishing sponsorships, and growing public backlash, Ye's life unfolds alongside a billion-dollar brand and a persona as polarizing as it is powerful." "For six transformative years of 15-hour shoot days, Ballesteros did more than document a cultural icon. What began as a silent observation evolved into a profound journey of artistic and personal growth. "Immersed in Ye's world of extremes, he bore witness to brilliance and breakdowns, triumphs and turmoil, but also observed the paranoia and intensity that increasingly shaped Ye's world. In the end, Ballesteros captured not just a portrait of Ye but a reflection of the human condition in all its contradictions." Nico previously directed Kanye's music videos for Come to Life, Playboi Carti Feat. Kid Cudi: M3tamorphosis, Gunna: Can't Relate, and the TV special Kanye West Presents Donda at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, but this documentary will mark his biggest release yet.

Pope Francis dies at 88
Vatican City: Pope Francis, the first Latin American pontiff, who charmed the world with his humble style and concern for the poor, has died, the Vatican announced on Monday. He was 88. The pope had suffered various ailments in his 12-year papacy and had survived a serious bout of double pneumonia recently. "Dear brothers and sisters, it is with profound sadness I must announce the death of our Holy Father Francis," Cardinal Kevin Farrell announced on the Vatican's TV channel. "At 7:35 (5:35 GMT) this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the house of the entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord and His church." He died on Easter Monday, just a day after he delighted the crowds of worshippers at the Vatican on Easter Sunday with an appearance on the balcony at Saint Peter's Basilica. The pontiff had become pope in 2013 after his predecessor, Benedict XVI, resigned. The Pope was admitted to the hospital for bronchitis treatment on February 14. In the days that followed, the Vatican said the Pope was diagnosed with bilateral pneumonia and was in a "critical condition" and was showing "initial, mild" signs of kidney failure. But his condition improved over the course of five weeks, and on March 23, he made his first public appearance in over a month on a balcony of the hospital and gave a thumbs-up to the crowds gathered outside. He returned to the Vatican later to begin two months of prescribed rest and recovery. On April 19, the Pope met US Vice President JD Vance. A day later, he greeted crowds at the Easter Sunday Service. Pope Francis will be the first pope in more than 100 years to be laid to rest outside the Vatican. He had wished to be buried not in St Peter's Basilica but in Rome's Santa Maria Maggiore Basilica. He also rejected the tradition of popes having three coffins, instead choosing to be buried in just one, made of wood and zinc, to reflect his role as a humble pastor. The Legacy Born Jorge Mario Bergoglio in Argentina, Francis was the first Jesuit to lead the world's almost 1.4 billion Catholics and the first from the Americas. He was elected on March 13, 2013, at age 76, surprising many Church watchers who had seen the Argentine cleric as an outsider. Francis inherited a Church that was under global scrutiny over a child sex abuse scandal and torn by infighting in the Vatican bureaucracy. Over the years, he sought to forge a more open and compassionate church. During his papacy, Francis faced criticism from conservatives and progressives alike. While conservatives accused him of trashing cherished traditions, progressives felt he should have done much more to reshape the 2,000-year-old Church. While he struggled with internal dissent, he strongly defended social justice, the rights of migrants and the environment and tackled the scourge of clerical sex abuse of children. Over 12 years, he had reorganised the Vatican's bureaucracy, written four major teaching documents, made 47 foreign trips to more than 65 countries, and created more than 900 saints. He had also held five major Vatican summits of the world's Catholic bishops to discuss contested issues such as women's ordination and changing the Church's sexual teachings.

On March 6, his voice was heard for the first time since being admitted to hospital in an audio message, in which he thanked well-wishers, before adding: "I am with you from here." On Sunday, he greeted crowds at the Easter Sunday Service, a day after meeting US vice president JD Vance. His 38-day hospital stay ended on March 23 when he made his first public appearance in five weeks on a balcony at Gemelli where he smiled and gave a thumbs up to the crowds gathered outside.

Doctors said Francis would have access to supplemental oxygen and 24-hour medical care as needed - adding that while the pneumonia infection had been successfully treated, the pontiff would continue to take oral medication for quite some time to treat the fungal infection in his lungs and continue his respiratory and physical physiotherapy.

As a child, he suffered from a severe case of pleurisy, which required part of one of his lungs to be removed.

In 1992, he was appointed the Auxiliary Bishop of Buenos Aires before later becoming the Archbishop of Buenos Aires in 1998. A few years later in 1991, Pope John Paul II elevated Pope Francis to a Cardinal. In 2013, he was elected the 266th Pope of the Catholic Church following the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI. Pope Francis took on the name Francis in honour of Saint Francis of Assisi and became the first Pope from Southern America.

Pope Francis has died, the Vatican says
Pope Francis has died at the age of 88, the Vatican has announced. The pontiff, who was Bishop of Rome and head of the Catholic Church, became pope in 2013 after his predecessor Benedict XVI resigned.

In the following days, thousands of faithful gathered in St Peter's Square to pray for his recovery, as others went to the Rome hospital where he was staying to leave flowers and cards. He remained in hospital for the rest of the month, with doctors saying that his condition remained "complex". On 6 March, his voice was heard for the first time since being admitted to hospital in an audio message, in which he thanked well-wishers, before adding: "I am with you from here." On Sunday, he greeted crowds at the Easter Sunday Service. His 38-day hospital stay ended on 23 March when he made his first public appearance in five weeks on a balcony at Gemelli where he smiled and gave a thumbs up to the crowds gathered outside.

'People's Pope' Born in 1936, Francis was the first pope from South America. His papacy was marked by his championing of those escaping war and hunger, as well as those in poverty, earning him the moniker the "People's Pope". In 2016, he washed the feet of refugees from different religions at an asylum centre outside Rome in a "gesture of humility and service". He also made his views known on a wide range of issues, from climate change to wealth inequality and the role of women in the Catholic Church. His acceptance of the LGBTQ community was unprecedented - beginning with an unexpected remark to reporters on a flight back from Brazil about gay clergy. He said: "If a person is gay and seeks God and has good will, who am I to judge them?" However, in April 2024 he appeared to reiterate the Vatican 's staunch opposition to gender reassignment, surrogacy, abortion and euthanasia, by signing the text "Dignitas Infinita" (Infinite Dignity). In the same year, his own liberal credentials were questioned after reports he used a homophobic slur behind closed doors. Pope's health in recent years As a young man in his native Argentina, Francis had part of one lung removed. In the last few years of his life, Francis needed a wheelchair or a cane to get around and limited his public speaking while struggling with bronchitis and flu. Francis first spent time in hospital as pope in 2021 for an operation to remove part of his colon. In June 2023 he was admitted to hospital for an operation on his intestine. At the time, the Vatican said he had been suffering "recurrent, painful and worsening" symptoms caused by an abdominal hernia. His recent health issues meant he was forced to miss significant events in the Roman Catholic calendar, including the traditional Good Friday procession at Rome's Colosseum last year. In 2022, he hinted he might step down if his health deteriorated after he was pictured using a wheelchair due to mobility issues caused by a flare-up of sciatica - a nerve condition that causes leg pain. His predecessor, the late Benedict XVI, became the first pope to resign in more than 600 years in 2013 instead of serving for life, and died in 2022. The Pope's original name was Jorge Mario Bergoglio and he previously served as a bishop in Buenos Aires. An estimated 1.4 billion Catholics across the world will mourn Francis' passing.
