Bianca Censori is believed to have been banned from social media by her husband Kanye West, raising concerns among her friends.
The 29-year-old model has been told she has to "remain a mystery" by her husband and stay off platforms such as Instagram and X. Those close to Bianca are said to be terrified Kanye is "manipulating" his wife and one relationship expert believes those fears are justified.
Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, Louella Alderson said: "The reported ban on Bianca Censori's use of social media by her husband, Kanye West, would understandably raise concerns among her friends and family. Kanye's actions may be seen as isolating and controlling, leading to questions about his motives and the state of their relationship.

She explained how Kanye's behaviour can "stem from deep-rooted insecurities and a need for control". She also said the rapper is likely trying to control his own reputation by being seen to dominate his wife.

Louella added: "In this case, Kanye may view Bianca's use of social media as a potential threat to his carefully crafted brand. He may fear she will give too much of herself away and damage the image he has built for her and them as a couple. By isolating her, he may hope to maintain his position as the dominant figure in their relationship and maintain control over their public image."
Kanye and Bianca tied the knot in December 2022, just a month after he finalised his divorce with Kim Kardashian. Louella suggested Kanye might see Bianca's social media presence as a threat to their marriage.

Kanye's ex-wife, Kim, grew her personal brand significantly during their marriage. It appeared that Kim posted what she wanted on social media and wore what she wanted.
"It's possible that this made him feel insecure and that he doesn't want the same dynamic with Bianca. By limiting her social media presence, Kanye may be trying to ensure that Bianca doesn't gain enough confidence and independence to go against his wishes."
Louella continued: "Regardless of the reasons behind Kanye's actions, it’s clear that his behaviour could potentially be harmful to Bianca's mental and emotional well-being. Isolation can lead to feelings of loneliness and a loss of identity, which in turn can have a negative impact on relationships. If the reports are true and Kanye is trying to isolate Bianca, it’s important for Bianca's friends and loved ones to provide support and encourage her to maintain her autonomy in the face of Kanye's attempts at dominance.
"Ultimately, Bianca should have the freedom to use social media as she wishes without fear of being controlled or isolated by her husband." Louella also encouraged Bianca to seek help if she needs it by reaching out to her family, friends, or a therapist.

People are worried for BiancaShe added: "It's important for her to have a strong support system outside of her relationship with Kanye, as they can provide valuable outsider perspectives and help her navigate any difficulties in their relationship. This is especially important when one partner is controlling because the other person can begin to lose perspective or what’s 'normal' behaviour or not."
However, Bianca is reported to have been limiting contact with her friends amid her relationship with Kanye. Louella said: "If her friends understand the potential reasons behind her actions, hopefully, they will forgive her and want to help her. Ultimately, it's important for Bianca to have a strong support system and not feel isolated or alone in her relationship with Kanye."
She also suggested Bianca might find an unlikely ally in Kanye's ex-wife. "If Bianca was really struggling, she could potentially also reach out to Kim for advice.
"Kim is someone who knows Kanye's tendencies and behaviour intimately, and she may be able to offer guidance to Bianca on how best to handle the situation and communicate with Kanye. Kim likely experienced Kanye trying to control different aspects of her life, including her clothing choices, her social media presence, and even her overall brand. This means that she would likely be able to offer valuable insight into navigating a relationship with Kanye," she explained.
