Rapper Kanye West calls his mother-in-law, socialite Kris Jenner "mom" and sees a "little brother" in Rob Kardashian, who's his brother-in-law.
The 37-year-old, who used the affectionate terminology to describe his wife Kim Kardashian's family in an interview with Style.com, said he had to make new friends when he began dating the reality star, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
"Soon as we started dating, fashion people were really opposed to the idea of reality stars. And all the relationships, the somewhat friends that I had somewhat built up, completely turned their backs on her and me," West said.
"They already had their back to her, and now they turned it to me. The so-called traction that I was getting in the high-fashion world was completely thrown out the window and I was finally allowed to go to school, where everyday I was in my mom (Kris Jenner)'s house, in my little brother's old room, Rob's old room, re-tailoring," he added.
The couple got married in May 2014.
