The reality star strolled beside her oldest child and others while donning chic sunglasses.

Kim Kardashian, 42, appeared happy as she accompanied her oldest daughter North, 9, on a Friday night dinner date. The adoring mother visited the Nobu restaurant in Malibu, California, wearing a white crop top and red and black striped leggings. North walked with her mother while sporting an oversized black T-shirt with a picture of the late rapper Tupac Shakur on it.

Kim completed the ensemble with similar heels, a bun in her long hair, and sunglasses. North had her long hair down with a light brown headband wrapped over it. She was dressed in socks and sneakers. Over the course of the enjoyable outing, she occasionally carried a phone.

Kim made news earlier this week for criticizing her ex and North’s father, Kanye West, in an episode of her family’s Hulu reality program, The Kardashians, before she and North were spotted leaving Nobu. She was discussing the difficulties of co-parenting with the rapper, with whom she has four children, including North, Saint, 7, Chicago, 5, and Psalm, 4.

When asked why she doesn’t criticize Kanye, whom she divorced last year, in front of her kids, Kim answered, “I just still feel the need to not talk about it and protect it for my kids.” “I’ll feel like way forever. But if people only knew, God. I simply wouldn’t do it to my children. But it’s really insane.

She continued by describing how, after Kanye had outbursts or incidents, she would spend “hours and hours” “cleaning up” after him. She remarked, “There are times when I feel like if he hit rock bottom, it’s his path that he needs to figure out on his own. “I used to run around and say, ‘It’s going to be okay, don’t worry, just give him another chance,’ to everyone behind his back. I no longer possess that energy.
