Kim Kardashian reveals two-year-old son Saint West ‘kept running away’ during Easter photo shoot

He turned two in September and as his famous mom admits, Saint West, like any toddler, is a bit of a handful. 

The boy, whose father is rapper Kanye West, is showcased in Easter photos shared by his reality star mom Kim Kardashian on social media Wednesday.

With his hair in cornrows, the self-assured youngster steals the show in a posed photo of the family of five and a one-on-one shot with Kim in which his cheeky personality shines through.

Saint, who has an older sister North, four, and a younger sister Chicago, three months, was his famous father’s mini me – wearing a crisp white buttoned up shirt paired with black pants like his dad. 

But it apparently took some effort on Kim’s part to maneuver him into posing on command for family pictures.

After sharing a rare photo of herself , her husband and all three of her children, the reality star, 37, confided on Twitter: ‘One hand holding the baby and the other hand grabbing the back of Saints shirt because he kept running away lol.’

Sharing the same photo to her Instagram, she explained in the caption: ‘I don’t think you really understand how hard it is to take a good family pic. This was all we got before all three kids started crying. I think I cried too.’

It’s the first time that the family has released a picture of them all together since Kim and Kanye brought home baby daughter Chicago who was born via gestational carrier in January.

While oldest child North has regularly featured in Kim’s social media posts, Saint has only recently started to make more of an appearance.

A few days ago, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star shared a sweet snap of her son gently kissing his baby sister Chicago on the nose.

‘He loves her so much,’ she wrote in the caption.

Kim is more in her comfort zone tweeting out selfies and Wednesday morning she shared an old one from the set of her Calvin Klein shoot last year.

On her subscription-only app kimkardashianwest.com the celebrity mom shared behind-the-scenes images from her KKW Beauty X Mario makeup campaign last week. 

She revealed that she was wearing a wig for the shoot, sharing with fans: ‘My hair was blonde here so this was a wig. You guys know I don’t feel comfortable in a wig, but this one looked so good and I loved the color!’

‘Mario also really wanted me to have dark hair for the campaign, since that’s his favorite look on me.’

She also said at first she was going to be in shorts but then decided to turn up the heat by taking off her clothes.

‘We thought we were gonna do just head shots and close-up photos, so I had bike shorts on and then at the very end of the shoot, I wanted it sexier,’ said Kim who has posed nude several times.

‘I took my bike shorts off to do really sexy shots, which ended up being the ones we loved the most and used for the campaign.’
