North West, 12, launched his Instagram profile this Friday (19), contrary to the advice of his father, Kanye West. The rapper has already made it clear that he would like to keep his daughter away from social media. Kim Kardashian, North’s mother, disagrees with her ex-husband.

North had already been jointly posting with Kim on TikTok since 2022, which was publicly disapproved of by Kanye West. The rapper once complained in a video.
“Hey guys, I just got off the phone with Kim and told her to stop teasing me with this TikTok thing,” he said on his own networks. “I said, ‘Never again.’ I’m his father,” Kanye said. “I know you don’t respect parents and the idea of family, and the media is trying to promote something else… but I said, ‘I will not allow my daughter to be used by TikTok’.”
Kim Kardashian, in turn, defended herself and her daughter’s right to use social networks. “Kanye’s constant attacks on me in interviews and on social media are actually more hurtful than any TikTok North could create,” the model wrote in her Stories. “As a mother who is the primary provider and caregiver of our children, I do my best to protect my daughter while allowing her to express her creativity in the medium of her choice, under adult supervision – because it makes her happy,” she concluded.
North’s first Instagram post was a photo of herself wearing a Balenciaga outfit. The image is blurry. She wears a black miniskirt, several necklaces and bracelets, and black thigh-high boots with silver chains wrapped around her legs. “First post,” she wrote in the caption of the publication which already had more than 540,000 likes this Sunday morning (21). North’s profile already has over 250,000 followers.
North West is the eldest daughter of Kanye and Kim. The model and the rapper were married for around 8 years. They separated in November 2022. Besides North, 12, they are also the parents of Saint, 10, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6.
