Kanye West and his wife, Bianca Censori, joined forces to sue a Beverly Hills dentist for malpractice earlier this week. According to the complaint, Kanye West alleges that the dentist supplied the producer and rapper with high amounts of nitrous oxide, causing him to become addicted.
As reported by E! News, Kanye West and Bianca Censori, previously reported as split apart, are seemingly still an item. In documents obtained by the outlet, West says that Dr. Thomas Connelly allegedly gave West high amounts of nitrous oxide while getting cosmetic dental work done starting last year into 2025, sparking an addiction to the anesthetic.
“You repeatedly administered or supplied nitrous oxide (‘laughing gas’) and/or other sedative substances to Ye in quantities and frequencies that had no legitimate dental or medical justification,” West and Censori’s legal team wrote in a formal notice of an intent to sue sent on the couple’s behalf by Golden Law. “Notably, you went so far as to deliver large ‘surgical-size’ nitrous oxide tanks to Ye’s personal residence (including the residence he shared with Ms. Censori), effectively enabling and encouraging him to inhale nitrous oxide outside of any medical setting.”
In addition to nitrous oxide, the couple is also accusing Connelly of giving him a sedative intravenously, and said that he discharged him before ensuring West’s “medical soundness” was intact. Further, West’s attorneys added that because of the claims of addiction, it has caused a divide in his marriage with Censori.
“Instead of enjoying a healthy married life, she [Censori] was forced to witness Ye’s physical and mental distress and deterioration and to assume the burden of caring for him under extremely distressing circumstances,” the attorneys wrote.
Connelly has not publicly responded to the letter, nor have there been further comments on the matter from Kanye West or Bianca Censori.
