Karlie Kloss and her husband Joshua Kushner stayed mum on Kanye “Ye” West’s recent allegations regarding Kushner’s investment in Kim Kardashian’s shapewear and clothing company SKIMS.
During an appearance on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” Thursday, the 45-year-old told Carlson that he wasn’t informed that he had a smaller stake in his ex-wife’s company than Kushner.
He alleged that he was kept in the dark about the fact that Kusher owned 10% of SKIMS while West himself only held a 5% stake in the company, which is valued at $3.2 billion as of January 2022.
However, the 30-year-old supermodel and the 37-year-old businessman remained silent when questioned about West’s statements by paparazzi who filmed them as they stepped out in New York City on Friday.

“You know, I had dinner with Ivanka [Trump], Jared [Kushner], and Josh [Kushner] and a couple of days later, I found out that Josh Kushner had 10 percent of SKIMS, which is a line that I had developed with Kim and I had a lot of issues with the imagery of SKIMS,” the “Flashing Lights” hitmaker told Carlson.
He continued, “So, I found out after this dinner that Josh Kushner had 10 percent of SKIMS, and I had five percent of SKIMS… and I’m sure Jared [Kushner] still has a piece of that.”
“I said, ‘Hey, Josh, what if I had 10 percent of [Kushner’s wife] Karlie Kloss’ lingerie shapewear swimsuit line, and you have five percent of it, and you didn’t know? How would that make you feel?'”
The 45-year-old said that he wasn’t informed that he had a smaller stake in his ex-wife’s company than Kushner.

The Yeezy entrepreneur also shared, “As a person that has really built something from nothing, when I sit across the table from Josh Kushner, and he just feels so entitled to that idea and this person has never brought anything of value other than so-called being a good venture capitalist, I have a major — I have a major issue with that.”
Representatives for Kushner and Kloss had no comment.
Kardashian, 41, and Swedish entrepreneur Jens Grede founded SKIMS in 2019. In April 2021, Kardashian told the New York Times that Ye was “super involved” in the beginning. The “Kardashians” star explained that her then-husband had offered “frank criticism” of the SKIMS packaging.
The couple didn’t respond when asked by the paparazzi about West’s statements.
