Kim Kardashian films KUWTK a day after Kanye's Twitter meltdown

Kim Kardashian was spotted filming her reality TV series less than 24 hours after her husband Kanye West had his latest Twitter meltdown - as she faces criticism for not doing more to help him with his bipolar disorder.

The 39-year-old was joined by her sister Khloe and Khloe's ex-boyfriend Tristan Thompson in Malibu on Wednesday as the trio were tailed by a Keeping Up With The Kardashians' film crew.

It came on the same day the mother-of-four publicly addressed her husband's bipolar battle with an Instagram statement saying 'her family is powerless'.

Kanye, who struggles with bipolar disorder, is currently at his ranch in Wyoming and was spotted on Wednesday visiting a Walmart with friends.

The 43-year-old rapper has had a tumultuous week that kicked off during his presidential rally in South Carolina where he revealed that he and Kim had considered aborting their now seven-year-old daughter North.

What followed was a series of rambling and since-deleted tweets in which he revealed he had been 'trying to get divorced' from Kim and accused her of trying to get him 'locked up'.

He deleted all of the tweets about his wife and her family soon after posting.

In her Instagram statement, Kim said she was 'powerless' but described her husband as 'brilliant but complicated'.

'Those that understand mental illness or even compulsive behavior know that the family is powerless unless the member is a minor,' she wrote.

'I understand Kanye is subject to criticism because he is a public figure and his actions at times can cause strong opinions and emotions. He is a brilliant but complicated person who on top of the pressures of being an artist and a black man, who experienced the painful loss of his mother, and has to deal with the pressure and isolation that is heightened by his bi-polar disorder.

'Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words some times do not align with his intentions.'
