North West, 12, Launches Parent-Managed Instagram With High-Fashion Debut

The launch has revived questions about how parents should oversee public accounts for children.

Overview

  • The verified @northwest account lists “account managed by parents” and is not following any profiles.
  • Her first post, captioned “first post,” is a blurry peace‑sign portrait in a Balenciaga T-shirt, mini skirt and chain-wrapped boots.
  • A second post on Dec. 21 showed her blue hair under a large hat with the caption “🔜..”, continuing a curated, fashion-led aesthetic.
  • Follower counts climbed into the hundreds of thousands within days, and recent posts have pulled tens of thousands of likes within hours.
  • The move follows years of Kim-managed TikTok activity and renews scrutiny of Kim Kardashian’s supervision as Kanye West’s previously stated opposition leaves his role unclear.
