Kim Kardashian's eldest daughter, North West, has made her Instagram debut at age 12, sparking renewed debate over her parents' differing views on social media. The account, launched on Friday, features a blurry photo of North in a black Balenciaga jersey and miniskirt, with the bio stating it is 'managed by parents.'
The move comes after father Kanye West previously expressed strong opposition to his children being online. In a resurfaced 2022 video, the rapper said he told Kim to stop 'antagonizing' him over TikTok, declaring: 'I am not allowing my daughter to be used by TikTok.'
Tensions flared in October when North posted videos on a joint TikTok account with her mother, wearing fake face tattoos, a nose piercing, and grillz. The edgy look divided commenters, with some dismissing it as a Halloween costume and others deeming it inappropriate for a 12-year-old.
Kim responded to the backlash at the time, defending her daughter's choices. The incident highlighted the ongoing conflict between the former couple over their children's online presence, with Kim taking a more permissive stance than Kanye.
