Kim Kardashian’s wet look Met Gala dress by Mugler was one of the most talked about outfits of the 2019 event, but it turns out that behind-the-scenes her husband Kanye West wasn’t a fan of the figure-hugging design.

On the most recent episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, the musician made it clear that he doesn’t love it when Kim wears revealing clothing, despite personally going through her wardrobe when they first started dating to reinvent his now-wife’s style. 

“Like the corset, underwear, all that vibe, I just feel like I just went through this transition of being rapper, and lookin’ at all these girls,” Kanye said to Kim the night before the Met Gala. “I didn’t realise that that was affecting like my soul and my spirit.”

He also noted that as “someone that’s married and in love and the father of what’s about to be four kids,” he doesn’t like Kim to be wearing “hot” clothing. “A corset is like a form of underwear. It’s hot. It’s like, it’s hot for who, though?” he said.

“The night before you’re going to come in here and say you’re not into the corset look? You’re giving me really bad anxiety… I don’t need any more negative energy,” Kim replied, to which Kanye, not one to be dissuaded, said: “You are my wife and it affects me when pictures are too sexy.”

“You built me up to be a sexy person and have confidence! Just because you’re on a journey and you’re in a transformation, doesn’t mean I’m in the same spot with you,” Kim hit back, something which seemed to resonate with Kanye enough for them to drop the conversation and for Kim to wear her outfit as planned.

But despite the pair coming to a resolution, fans of the show were quick to point out what a hypocrite Kanye was being during the discussion:
