‘It doesn’t bother Kim that Kanye is dating. Her only concern is their kids,’ the insider explained to People.

‘She wants Kanye to be present and spend as much time with them as possible. The kids love when Kanye is around.’

Kanye and Irina have known one another since at least 2010 when she played an angel in the music video for his song Power.

Then at Paris Fashion Week in 2012 she hit the runway for the rapper and fashion mogul’s fall/winter collection.
