Kim Kardashian ‘mortified’ by son Saint’s Election Day post

Kim Kardashian has admitted she was left ‘mortified’ after her son Saint shared a post promoting his Fortnite account on her Instagram – just hours after Donald Trump won the presidential election.

The mother-of-four was promptly slammed for sharing such an out of touch Instagram Reel on her page – though some fans theorized at the time that her eight-year-old son was likely responsible.

Speaking on the What in the Winkler? podcast this week, the 44-year-old confirmed that the post had been created and shared by her child – leaving his mother embarrassed by the incident.

During a discussion with podcast host and her childhood friend, Zoe Winkler, Kim — who shared she feels like a single parent — was explaining how she is often reminded of the need to ‘give yourself grace’ as a parent.

The morning after the election, Kim’s Instagram had a Reel that simply read: ‘Please subscribe to my son’s Fortnite channel on YouTube he will pick the best players to be in his clan.’

In the comments section, fans were shocked at the post – even using her sister Kourtney Kardashian‘s famous line to her ‘Kim, there’s people that are dying,’ – which is in reference to when she lost her diamond earrings in the ocean and Kourtney called her out for being so out of touch.

A number of X/Twitter users tied Saint’s posts to his father’s longstanding support for Trump.

Kim – who shares daughters North, 11, and Chicago, six, and sons Saint, eight, and Psalm, five, with her ex-husband, 47 – had ties to both presidential candidates amid her criminal justice reform efforts in recent years.
