And the rapper and his wife Kim Kardashian appeared at times sombre as they jetted out of Brisbane airport back to Los Angeles on Tuesday morning.
The celebrity power couple were seen making their way through the international terminal, Kim wearing an all-white outfit while pushing their one-year-old daughter North in her stroller.
Heading home: Kim Kardashian and her husband Kanye West left Australia and headed back to LA on Tuesday after an exciting and controversial trip Down Under
So long! Kim kept her head down as she waved to her fans
The 33-year-old donned a pair of very tight white trousers and a matching gauzy blouse, opting to wear her hair down and minimal makeup on her complexion.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star mostly kept her head down, but saluted her fans by waving at them as they stood on a balcony above.
Meanwhile, Kanye was dressed all in black and an army green bomber jacket.
At times the rapper walked behind his wife, his eyes glued to the screen of his cell phone.
The couple came through customs at the last minute with an entourage of bodyguards and did manage some smiles, especially while doting over their baby girl North who remained nestled in her stroller.
Kim was seen cooing over her little girl whose tiny feet were seen peeking out of the pram.
Just moments after boarding their plane, Kim took to Instagram to make one last social media post before her flight, referring to the controversy surrounding her husband.

Shrouded in controversy: Kim and Kanye's stay Down Under came with some controversy
In her man's defense: Kim took to Instagram to make one last post before departing Oz, referring to the controversy surrounding her husband after he stopped his concert over the weekend to wait for a fan to get on their feet - before realising they were in a wheelchair
'What an amazing Australian tour! Its frustrating that something so awesome could be clouded by lies in the media. Kanye never asked anyone in a wheel chair to stand up & the audience videos show that,' she wrote alongside a video of her husband performing.
'He asked for everyone to stand up & dance UNLESS they were in a wheel chair. #JustWantedEveryoneToHaveAFunNight #TheMediaTwistsThings.'
Her comments come after Kanye chose to 'break down' the moment in a highly personal speech made to his audience at his Brisbane show on Monday night.
Addressing the crowd, the 37-year-old rap star said his actions had been misunderstood by critics, but explained, 'I’m not judging them - I’m just telling you who I am. I’m a married Christian man.'

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star cheered as her partner described his evolving image.
Kim was in the audience for her husband's final show, wearing her statement black and accompanied by her friend Steph Shep.
'I’m not gonna make one of those Ben Affleck statements and s**t if that’s what you’re thinking,' he said, saying he then went from 'being a rock star across the globe...to making the decision to pick one woman, raise a family…for anyone here that’s married, or in a relationship, knows that there’s enough things working against you.'

Defending his actions at his earlier show in Sydney, when he sent security guard Pascal Duvier to check whether a seated person was in fact in a wheelchair - which they were - the rapper on Monday night said, 'At my concerts I make sure everybody has as good a time as possible.
'So all this demonising me, it ain’t gonna work after a while. Pick a new target. Pick a new target!
''Cos I’m not one of these dumb-a**e artists that you’re used to.
'You come to me, I’m gonna take my platform and I’m gonna break down this s**t down for real, intelligent people every night so they can understand.'

During previous concerts Kanye has gone out of his way to assist disabled fans, in June asking his security to give a fan in a wheelchair his microphone as a gift.
'I was in the second row,' US fan Eliiot Briones told E! News. 'There were a lot of people blocking me, and Kanye noticed. Kanye told the security guard to give me the mic.'
Although he didn't meet Kanye, he said the gesture at the show in Texas still 'means a lot to me. I don't know how to explain. It's just a humble experience.'
