Kim Kardashian praises daughter North’s landscape painting after sparking debate following Kanye West divorce filing
KIM Kardashian praised her daughter North’s landscape painting after filing for divorce from Kanye West.
The KUWTK star posted a snap of North’s “classic” artwork weeks after claimed the seven-year-old didn’t paint the piece.

Kim wrote alongside the close-up: “Just had to post this on my main feed bc it’s a North West Classic!”
The reality star lashed out earlier this month at skeptics who claimed it was unlikely that North had painted the stunning mountain landscape on her own.
She faced doubt after sharing a snap of her eldest child’s oil creation depicting a lake, snowy mountains and trees – which the youngster made after taking an art class for several weeks.
Kim raged: “Don’t play with me when it comes to my children!”

Kim added: “My daughter and her best friend have been taking serious oil painting class where their talents and creativity are being encouraged and nurtured…
“How dare you see children doing awesome things and then try to accuse them of NOT being awesome!?
“Please stop embarrassing yourselves with the negativity and allow every child to be great! NORTH WEST PAINTED THAT PERIOD!”
The KKW Beauty founder has been extra focused on her kids after filing for divorce from Kanye last week.

She is asking for joint legal and physical custody of the couple’s four kids, TMZ previously reported.
During their relationship, the famous couple welcomed four kids: daughters North West, seven, Chicago, three, and sons Saint five, and Psalm, one.
Sources exclusively told The Sun that their divorce has been “all amicable” as they prepare to divide their $2 billion fortune.
However, if Kanye makes any public attacks on Kim or her family, the proceedings could soon get ugly.

An insider told The Sun: “Kim is in the driving seat. If Kanye makes things difficult by badmouthing her or acting out, she’ll go for more money and full custody of their brood.
“Mud-slinging in public won’t work for their family in the long term. They want to split their wealth evenly and keep their kids in the luxurious lifestyle they are accustomed to.”
The rapper is the richer of the pair, worth $1.3billion according to business mag Forbes.
That includes his Yeezy clothing and footwear brand empire as well as his music.
Kim is valued at $780million, largely from her cosmetic brand KKW Beauty.

At least some of the drama will play out on the final season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, which has been filming over the past six months, and the family’s new Hulu series.
Fans have been speculating as to who Kim will date next, and have suggested the likes of Brad Pitt, CNN reporter Van Jones and even SNL comedian Pete Davidson.
Kanye is said to believe his controversial 2020 bid for president “cost him his marriage.”
During his campaign, the hip hop artist claimed he and Kim almost aborted their first child, North.
