Kanye West ‘Appreciates’ Kim Kardashian ‘Being Reasonable’ About North’s Social Media Usage After Deleted TikTok Video
Exes Kanye West and Kim Kardashian don’t always see eye to eye on their 10-year-old daughter North’s social media usage.
“Although Kanye disagrees with North being allowed to post on TikTok, he appreciates Kim being reasonable about certain content she posts,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly of the 46-year-old rapper’s stance on the matter. “Kanye has a really strong bond with North and even though he completely trusts her, he knows she’s still very young and can’t always make the best judgement call on what’s appropriate to share with the public and what’s not.”
Kardashian, 42, for her part — who runs her and North’s joint TikTok account, @kimandnorth — admitted during a Tuesday, June 20, interview with Time that she sometimes makes the wrong calls when it comes to her kids’ internet activity. She recalled deciding to take down a TikTok video of North and rapper Ice Spice lip synching to the latter’s song “Boy’s a Liar, Pt. 2″ after the clip went viral earlier this year.
“As soon as I saw the words, I was like, ‘Oh no, we’re taking this down,’” the Skims mogul — who also shares sons Saint, 7, and Psalm, 4, and daughter Chicago, 5, with West — explained. “I saw on the internet [people were saying] ‘Kanye was right,’ and maybe he was in that instance. But [North] loves making slime videos and doing her little hair tutorials, and I will fight for her to be creative.”
Kardashian fired back, publicly defending North’s social media presence.
“Kanye’s constant attacks on me in interviews and on social media is actually more hurtful than any TikTok North might create,” she wrote via her Instagram Story at the time. “As the parent who is the main provider and caregiver for our children, I am doing my best to protect our daughter while also allowing her to express her creativity in the medium that she wishes with adult supervision — because it brings her happiness.”
