Justin Bieber has visited Kanye West at his ranch in Wyoming amid concern over the rapper’s mental health.

Last week, West tweeted a number of claims against his family, including accusations that his wife, Kim Kardashian West, had tried to have a doctor “lock me up”.

The Twitter storms followed a controversial campaign rally in South Carolina, at which West claimed he and his wife had considered abortion before the birth of their first child, their daughter North.

West tweeted then deleted posts that appeared to accuse his wife and her mother, Kris Jenner, of white supremacy, and others that implied he was seeking a divorce.

In a response posted to her own Instagram account, Kardashian West asked for fans’ understanding, commenting that she was “powerless”. She also reminded fans that her husband suffers from bipolar disorder.

West has now shared a photo of Bieber to his Yeezy Campus in Wyoming. The singer was shown in conversation with music executive Damon Dash.

West captioned the post: “DD & JB discussing the new spray foam wall prototypes on the YZY campus.”

Bieber, 26, has been on a road trip with his wife, Hailey, and has been sharing photos of their journey on Instagram.

West had earlier received a visit from comedian Dave Chappelle: ”You are a godsend and a true friend,” West told him.

Friday 24 July was initially the release date for West’s latest album, Donda: With Child.

As with previous records, however, Donda did not appear on streaming platforms. West has yet to provide an update on the album’s status.
