Kanye West has continued to make news for his bizarre online behavior and controversial statements. Prior to getting his Twitter suspended once again for posting an image of the Swastika logo within the Star of David, the rapper also made certain claims about his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian.

The musician posted a yearbook-like photo focusing on Phoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul and claimed that he caught Kardashian with the athlete. Kanye wrote:

“Let’s break one last window before we get outa [sic] here I caught this guy with Kim. Good night.”

While the unconfirmed claim left social media users shocked, several people also pointed out the name “Dalio” written above Paul’s picture. The image sparked major speculation about Dalio’s identity and made people curious if West's claim hinted towards Kardashian having an affair with Paul or Dalio.

Some users further alleged that the photo on Ye’s Twitter was reportedly of American billionaire and hedge fund manager Ray Dalio, and the name on the image was hinted towards his son, Paul Dalio:

Kanye West’s claim about Kim Kardashian came after the rapper landed in hot waters once again for openly sharing his admiration for Nazis and Adolf Hitler during an appearance on Alex JonesInfowars.


Everything to know about Paul Dalio and his family

Paul Dalio is an American screenwriter, director, and composer. He is the son of hedge fund billionaire Ray Dalio and the grandchild of New York-based jazz musician Marino Dallolio. The screenwriter was born on December 8, 1979, and reportedly grew up in Wilton, Connecticut.

His father is a renowned American investor and hedge fund manager who serves as the co-chief investment officer of Bridgewater Associates, the world's largest hedge fund. Ray Dalio founded Bridgewater in 1975 in New York and has served as the co-CIO of the organization since 1985.

It was during the program that Paul met his wife and collaborator, Kristina Nikolova, and his professor, Spike Lee. The latter became Paul’s mentor and also served as the executive producer of his debut feature film Touched with Fire.

The film, inspired by Paul's own battle with bipolar disorder, premiered at SXSW 2015 and was released across theaters in February 2016. The film earned significant praise from critics and had a great impact on the issues surrounding mental health. It also earned 11 awards from various mental health organizations.

In one of his most recent controversial social media activities, Kanye West claimed that he “caught” his ex-wife Kim Kardashian with basketball player Chris Paul.

While he tweeted a photo of Paul in support of his claim, the rapper also focused on the name “Dalio” above Paul’s picture. The image sparked major speculation on social media, and many took to Twitter to react to Ye’s allegations on Kardashian:

As reactions continue to pour in online, it remains to be seen if Kim Kardashian will address Ye’s claims in the days to come. No official confirmation of the former’s connection with either Chris Paul or the Dalio family has been available so far. Moroever, all speculations are based on online theories surrounding Kanye West’s claims.

The rapper's Twitter account has since been suspended for possibly violating the rules of the platform with his anti-Semitic remarks and actions.
