There's no denying that the Kardashian-West/ Swift feud – which has been bubbling under the surface for years, but officially kicked off on Sunday night – has become somewhat of a soap opera.

From daily plot twists to unexpected cameos, the public – whether they want it or not – have been drip-fed new information every day since Kim Kardashian indirectly initiated the TaylorSwiftIsOverParty.

And despite the press, public and fans weighing in from all corners, we had yet to get an insight into what finally pushed Kim over edge, and compelled her to leak that footage… until now, that is.

According to a source who spoke to Us Weekly, Taylor's Grammy speech where she appeared to throw shade at Kanye was the last straw for his furious wife.

"There are going to be people along the way who try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame" and "if you just focus on the work and you don’t let those people side track you, someday when you get where you’re going," Taylor urged her audience at the time.

Furious that the Shake It Off singer was blasting her husband publicly, Kim decided to take action.

"They wouldn't have released that tape had she not dedicated her Grammys speech to bashing Kanye for something she was aware of," the insider revealed.

"Kim is glad that the truth is out there. Kim was sick of it for them, for their kids, for everyone who believes in them, and she was not going to let people take Kanye down," they continued.

But if you were hoping for a sequel in this saga, you'll likely be disappointed if Kimye have anything to do with it.

"Kim and Kanye hope that one day they can make up with Taylor," the insider confirmed. "They aren't interested in having this beef."

Hmmm, they mightn't be…but Taylor might…
