Kim added, "We stayed in touch since then, and after being approached by a few collectors and auction houses regarding other collectables he owned from 2003-2005."

"Which included first-hand sketches and Kanye's original personal pink RL polo, Bobby felt it [would] be most appropriate to give them to our kids, again, asking for nothing in return," she continued.

The 43-year-old reality star further noted, "I would like to publicly thank Bobby for his kindness and generosity (it's very rare in this industry), when he could have easily made a lot of money from selling off these items instead."

Moreover, In the slides that followed, Kim showed off some of the "collectables," including the pastel Ralph Lauren polo she highlighted earlier and a black graphic T-shirt, which she displayed with a photo of West wearing it.

Kim Kardashian shares four children with her ex-husband Kanye West, with whom she got married in 2014 and got divorced in 2022,  North West, Saint West, Chicago West, and Psalm West.
