Kanye West dons a face mask as he grabs lunch at Nobu restaurant in Malibu

His wife Kim Kardashian recently revealed that it was ‘so scary’ single-handedly aiding his COVID-19 recovery back in March. 

And Kanye West appeared to be taking precaution as he grabbed lunch at Nobu restaurant in Malibu on Monday afternoon.

The 43-year-old rapper donned a medical grade face mask as he made his way into the swanky beachfront establishment.

Due to the overcast weather conditions, West made sure to layer a denim jacket over his blue t-shirt.

The Stronger hitmaker finished off his ensemble by throwing on some black Adidas sweat pants and a pair of his personally crafted adidas YEEZY ‘Foam RNNR’ slip-ons.  

As for jewelry, he appeared to be wearing his gold wedding band and nothing else.

Kanye’s outing comes hours after Kim opened up about helping him at a time where not much was known about the novel coronavirus in a cover story interview with GRAZIA.  

‘Kanye had it way at the beginning, when nobody really knew what was going on,’ explained the 39-year-old KUWTK star in the interview published Monday.

‘It was so scary and unknown. I had my four babies and no-one else in the house to help.’

Kardashian said that he had tested positive around the same time that Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson revealed that they had it in mid-March.

However, during his infamous Forbes interview from July, Kanye revealed that he had it in February.  

Regardless of the timetable, Kim stepped up to the plate to take care of her ailing husband. 

She explained: ‘I had to go and change his sheets and help him get out of bed when he wasn’t feeling good. It was a challenge because it was so unknown.

‘Changing his sheets with gloves and a face shield was really a scary time.’ 

Back in July, Kanye described his symptoms as he said: ‘Chills, shaking in the bed, taking hot showers, looking at videos telling me what I’m supposed to do to get over it. 

‘I remember someone had told me Drake had the coronavirus and my response was Drake can’t be sicker than me!’

The 33-year-old Canadian rapper later tested negative in March.

Meanwhile Kanye sent his condolences to the Commander In Chief and First Lady Melania Trump on Saturday, as they recover from COVID-19 following the announcement of their diagnoses Thursday night. 

The 43-year-old wrote on Twitter: ‘There’s a crying need for civility across the board. We need to and will come together in the name of Jesus. 

‘I’m praying for President Trump’s and Melania’s full recovery, just as I would for Joe and Jill Biden if they were stricken, as well as everyone else with COVID-19.’
