Kanye's wife's family — 'gangster' roots, glam sisters and bitter legal battle (2024)

Bianca Censori became Mrs West in January when she tied the knot with the YEEZY founder and iconic rapper, but what is the Australian model's immediate family like and are they close?

Kanye West's new wife Bianca Censori is from Melbourne, Australia, with the gorgeous model and architect said to have a very colourful and interesting family life away from the West household.

Marrying the 46-year-old rapper in January of this year, Bianca, 28, became the new Mrs West only mere weeks after Kanye's divorce from ex-wife Kim Kardashian was finalised. Marrying in a secret ceremony, the pair have since made several appearances with each other in public.

Not much about Bianca's life away from the rapper was known when she married the YEEZY founder, but things now appear to be coming to light after it was alleged that she is related to Australian gangsters, with one of them reportedly being her jailed father. Not only this, but she has two gorgeous sisters, a lookalike mother, and a legal feud taking place within her bloodline.

'Notorious gangster family'

According to sources and various reports, Bianca's dad is a notorious gangster in her home country of Australia. It is claimed that her dad, Elia "Leo" Censori, was jailed and convicted of possession of a prohibited import back in 1982. He is also said to have convictions for possession of a pistol and fully jacketed ammunition.

Daily Mail Australia recently reported that Bianca's dad is the brother Eris Censori, a "notorious gangland killer" who was reportedly once dubbed "Melbourne's Al Capone". Eris was sentenced to death in Western Australia for murder, but the sentence was later changed to life imprisonment. Meanwhile, the eldest of the brothers, Edmondo, is said to have convictions in Victoria, Australia for violence, "including assaulting police, theft, and threats".

Bitter legal feud

Bianca's father Eris, who is said to have changed his name to Tony Campana, has been feuding with his sister Elenia Censori recently. The two are at loggerheads in the Supreme Court of Victoria over ownership of a Brunswick property, according to reports.

Battling it out in court over two empty blocks on Union Street in Brunswick, Bianca's dad is said to have wanted to build properties on the land. But after transferring ownership over to his sister, things took a bitter turn. When the ownership was transferred, it was only on the provision that a trust would be created to allow him to retain ownership at a later date, but Elenia has claimed the trust never existed and argued that the properties were hers.

Eris explained to the court that the trust agreement had been destroyed in a fire. Meanwhile, in court documents obtained by The Mirror, Elenia said: "Eris is not a person you can – you can say no to... he can be intimidating."

In the documents, Eris claimed his sister owed him $182,097 (£92,700) in rent. Justice Michael McDonald concluded the bitter feud by him accepting Eris' claims that his sister "holds 160 Union Street on trust for his benefit". And as a result, Elenia was ordered to transfer the property to her brother and pay him the $182,097, plus interest.

Lookalike Kardashian-esque family

Aside from the alleged criminal history and current bitter legal battles in Bianca's family, she has some very beautiful siblings, as well as a lookalike mother. Posing with her family in snaps that can be seen online, Bianca, her sisters Alyssia and Angelina, and her mum Alexandra, all share striking resemblances to one another.

The Censori sisters, who have expressed to have some privacy in the past following their sister's marriage to Kanye, are said to have grown up in the affluent suburb of Ivanhoe in Australia. They then later moved to Alphington, which is where the sisters' mother is said to reside today.

Earlier this year, after Bianca and Kanye's marriage was made public, Alexandra was seen in the Alphington area. Spotted driving her swanky Mercedes Benz vehicle to the local shops, the blonde bombshell clutched a $5,300 black Prada bag as she went about her day.
