North West (12): The Emerging Fashion Icon and Social Media Rebel
North West, born in 2013, has always been the most visible of the West children, and at 12 years old in late 2025, she has fully embraced a public persona that is both creative and controversial. Her recent activities have made it clear she is determined to carve out her own identity, often in surprising ways.
1. The Shocking New ‘Goth’ Aesthetic
North’s style evolution has been the biggest story of 2025. Moving away from typical pre-teen fashion, she has been frequently photographed in a distinct ‘goth’ or alternative style. This look often includes oversized black clothing, bold makeup, and striking hair choices.
- Blue Hair and Faux Tattoos: In a move that shocked many, North recently showcased vibrant blue hair, faux face tattoos, and piercings, all prominently featured on social media.
- Public Scrutiny: This bold fashion has drawn both praise for its creativity and criticism from netizens who question Kim Kardashian’s parenting choices for allowing such an edgy style at age 12.
2. Defying Dad with an Instagram Debut
North’s presence on social media has been a point of contention between her parents, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. While they previously shared a joint TikTok account, North’s recent move to join Instagram in late 2025 has been widely reported as a social media move that "defies dad Kanye West," who has publicly expressed his discomfort with their children on social media platforms.
Her Instagram debut was a major event, instantly breaking the internet and solidifying her status as a young influencer. Fans and media outlets closely tracked her first posts, which often reflect her artistic and fashion-forward sensibilities.
The Younger West Children: Saint, Chicago, and Psalm
While North commands the most headlines, her three younger siblings—Saint, Chicago, and Psalm—are growing up fast and developing their own unique personalities under the watchful eye of the public and their mother.
3. Saint West (10): The Sports and Comedy Enthusiast
Saint West, born in 2015, turned 10 years old in late 2025. He is often portrayed as the most energetic and sports-focused of the siblings. Kim frequently shares anecdotes about his love for basketball and his playful, comedic personality. Unlike his older sister, Saint’s public appearances are usually centered around family trips, holiday photos, and sporting events, keeping his personal style more low-key.
4. Chicago West (7) and Psalm West (6): The Surrogacy Siblings
Daughters Chicago and son Psalm were both welcomed via surrogacy, a detail that has been openly discussed by Kim on *The Kardashians* to normalize the process for other families.
- Chicago West (7): Born in 2018, Chicago is known for her striking resemblance to her mother and her quiet, sweet demeanor. Kim has described her as her "twin" and often shares images of Chicago in matching, high-fashion outfits.
- Psalm West (6): The youngest, Psalm, born in 2019, turned 6 in 2025. He is often seen in family photos as the calm, loving balance to the group. Kim has shared that he is a very spiritual and gentle soul, often providing the most "relatable parenting struggle" moments when trying to capture a perfect family photo.
5. Kim’s Modern Co-Parenting and Boundary-Setting
The lives of the West children are shaped by Kim’s modern approach to co-parenting with Kanye West. Despite their high-profile divorce, both parents are committed to prioritizing the children’s needs and fostering their individuality.
- Discipline with Empathy: Kim’s parenting philosophy is centered on clear routines, open conversations, and discipline delivered with empathy, aiming to respect each child's unique spirit.
- Navigating Public Life: The biggest challenge for Kim is balancing her children's desire for independence (like North’s fashion and social media use) with the intense scrutiny of the public eye. She has publicly confessed that she struggles with the same chaos and relatability as any other parent when trying to manage her four kids, especially during holidays.
- The SKIMS Influence: As the children get older, they are increasingly involved in their mother’s business empire, often modeling for SKIMS campaigns or appearing at high-profile events, further blurring the line between private life and public brand.
The next generation of the Kardashian-West family is clearly one to watch. North West is leading the charge, using her platform to express a vibrant, boundary-pushing style that challenges celebrity child norms. Meanwhile, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm are developing their own distinct interests, ensuring that the West name remains synonymous with pop culture relevance for years to come.
