There’s been a lot of fan-driven speculation about the Kardashian-West family’s relationship with Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s family, particularly when it comes to their kids, North West and Blue Ivy.

Some rumors allege that Kim Kardashian harbors an “obsession” with Beyoncé’s daughter, Blue Ivy, possibly hoping for the two families to be closer than they actually are.

However, there’s no real evidence to suggest that Kim has any kind of obsession with Blue Ivy, nor that North has ever publicly revealed such a thing.

The rumors likely stem from the long history of speculation about the dynamic between the Kardashian-West family and the Carter-Knowles family.

Given the longstanding friendship between Kanye West and Jay-Z, some fans imagined that their families would naturally be close, but public appearances together have been rare.

Despite some perceived distance, both families appear to respect each other’s space and have not publicly commented on any tension.

Ultimately, both Kim and Beyoncé seem focused on raising their kids with values that are important to their respective families.

North and Blue Ivy, as two young people growing up in the spotlight, each have their unique paths, personalities, and interests. It’s a great example of two powerful families choosing their own directions while maintaining a mutual respect from a distance.
