Kim Kardashian ‘rushed Kanye West to hospital with bad case of flu’

Kim Kardashian reportedly had to rush her rapper husband Kanye West to hospital.

The reality star took West to a hospital in San Fernando Valley after suffering a serious bout of flu, according to TMZ.

The rapper’s health was said to have deteriorated so much that he was in need of medical attention, forcing Kardashian to take him to A&E.

West was reportedly admitted for a short time before he was sent home to recover.

A source told the Mail that West was “under the weather with the common cold or flu.”

The insider added that he was taken to hospital “to see a doctor for antibiotics and was in and out”, confirming he was “at home resting now.”

Earlier this month the father-of-three complained about feeling unwell on social media.

He wrote: “Had a sinus headache on a flight once and I got a f****** cat scan after because it was so bad.

“Whenever you're feeling down bored irritated or disgruntled just say...thank god I don't have a sinus headache... they feel like the episode of black mirror when the bee went into the guys ear...”

The news comes after retired basketball player Dennis Rodman told how he wants to take West to North Korea.

The 57-year-old who has built an unlikely friendship with Kim Jong-un over a mutual love of basketball said he wanted the rapper to visit the country for a week in September.

He told US weekly he hoped West would be able to “see what was going on” in the country in case he “wanted to make an album about it”.
