And their four children will be OK, since Kim is now a billionaire, thanks to her make up, shapewear and mobile apps, and according to Bloomberg, Kanye's partnership with Adidas and Gap for his Yeezy brand sneakers and apparel have him putting away between $3.2 billion and $4.7 billion.

Who could be more perfect as one of the show's stars?
