In a world where past rifts often lead to lasting feuds, it’s refreshing to see a gesture of goodwill that hints at mended fences. Ciara, the multi-talented artist and wife of NFL star Russell Wilson, recently showcased her support for Kim Kardashian’s Met Gala 2024 look. Kardashian’s attire- a stunning creation by Margiela designed by John Galliano, was shared on her social media with the caption “MARGIELA BY JOHN GALLIANO MET 2024.” Ciara echoed her admiration by re-sharing Kim’s post on her story, adorned with three love emojis.

Kardashian’s Met Gala 2024 appearance was nothing short of spectacular. The ensemble featured a delicate lace train adorned with leaves and floral accents, perfectly aligning with the gala’s theme. The highlight was undoubtedly the silver corset, which cinched her waist and added a dramatic flair to her silhouette. Kim paired this with a cozy cashmere cardigan, a nod to the “Garden of Time” theme, which was inspired by the symbiotic relationship between Elizabeth Taylor and her jewelry.

This year Ciara chose family over fashion’s biggest night. She opened up about her decision to skip the 2024 Met Gala to “Extra”, citing her commitment to “momming it up” and the joys of watching her little one, Amora, reach new milestones. This dedication to family is a shared sentiment with her husband Wilson, as the couple often emphasizes the importance of their home life over the spotlight.

The show of support for Kim’s Met Gala look also serves as a subtle nod to the thawing relationship between the two celebrities. Despite a rocky past that saw them drift apart.

Russel Wilson a catalyst for the rumoured Ciara-Kim rift?

Their bond deepened over personal milestones, with Ciara sharing on Instagram in 2014, “Me Before Going 2 Do Some Baby Prep Stuff With My Friend Kimmie. #ExcitingTimes.. Still Feels Surreal That This Is Actually Happening. Xo. Mommy @kimkardashian. #PerfectDay.” The ‘1,2 Step’ singer also recounted to Us Weekly how Kim provided invaluable motherhood advice, “We [go] over really personal stuff from the woman’s side of things.

However, a rumored rift emerged in 2015 when Ciara began dating Russell Wilson. Life & Style reported that Wilson had reservations about the Kardashians’ reputation in sports circles, leading Ciara to respect his wishes. The couple’s choice for celibacy before marriage further sets them apart, with Russell sharing, “Just did it Jesus’s way.”

Despite these challenges, the present paints a different picture. Ciara’s inclusion of Kim in a video montage for her track ‘Jump’ signals a rekindled connection. This gesture, alongside other A-listers, underscores a friendship that has matured, embracing change and growth while celebrating each other’s successes.
