Kanye West snubbed wife Kim on the Met Gala red carpet?

I saw the photos and they looked happy but some keen observers say they detected friction between Kanye West and his wife Kim Kardashian on the 2015 Met Gala red carpet.

According to tell OK magazine

He also briefly left her on the red carpet to talk to another attendee while Kim continued to pose for the numerous photographers.
