Kanye West’s wife, Bianca Censori, is doing her best to ease tensions over the edgy style choices of his and Kim Kardashian’s eldest daughter, North, according to a source.
As Globe previously reported, Kim, 45, faced public backlash earlier this month after North, 12, posted multiple TikToks rocking fake face tattoos, a faux septum piercing, and black grillz.
Before that, in August, the reality star caught heat for letting the tween wear a strapless black corset and mini skirt during a trip to Rome, Italy.
“Bianca’s been following the situation closely because she’s fond of North and wants to be there for her,” the source tells Globe. “She’s reassuring Kanye there’s nothing to worry about, the face tattoos are clearly fakes, and this is a simple case of a young kid expressing herself and doing some harmless attention seeking.”
However, the source notes that the rapper, 48, is “not so sure” and is “convinced” that the Skims founder — whom he also shares Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6 with — and her mom, Kris Jenner, are influencing the kids.

However, Kim appeared on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddypodcast earlier this month and said she just wants to let North express herself.
“I’m like, ‘Babe, if you want blue hair, it is what it is,’” she admitted. “It makes her so happy. I would never take that creativity away from her.”
The source also claims that the “Gold Digger” hitmaker, “wants to spend more time” with his kids but has “been keeping his distance and waiting for them to contact him.”
“For Bianca, that’s not good enough, she says it’s their duty to be proactive and see the kids,” the source adds.
Kardashian revealed that it has “been a couple months” since she and the kids “heard” from the musician on Call Her Daddy, and shut down the narrative she’s kept them away from their dad.
“Every time he has asked, I will always let them see their father. That’s just who I am,” she remarked.
