In just four months of dating, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have forked out £2.5million (over N619million) on each other.

Some West African countries have not seen that much money this year.

The Mirrorreported the ego-stroking spendaholics have become so obsessed with flashing their cash at each other that they’ve forked out £1.25million each on cars, holidays and other pressies.

Only dating officially since April, their romantic gifts to each other have included:

A £478,000 black Lamborghini which Kim bought Kanye for his 35th birthday in June;

A £21,000 white sapphire-encrusted gold skull statue which Kanye gave Kim in July;

Plus they’ve spent £446,000 on just getting to their many holidays in London, Paris, Cannes and Mexico by private jet or first class.

The two are reported to be very strong-willed and there is a bit of a power struggle in the relationship.

“Both Kim and Kanye want to show they have their own money and fame outside of them getting together,” a source said.

“But they’re so besotted with each other that although they’re spending so much, they barely bat an eyelid when they see the price tag or bill.

“After all, they’re both multi-millionaires at the start of a big love affair.”

As Kim, 31, says: “When I’m in love, you can’t tell me anything. I’m in love with love!”

Mind you if it all leads to a Kimye wedding they’ve still got some way to go to top the £6.3million Kim and Kris Humphries spent on their bash ahead of their 72-day marriage back in August last year.
