Kim Kardashian released the first picture of her son Saint West to mark her late father Robert Kardashian’s birthday on Monday.
Writing a tribute to the lawyer on her website KimKardashianWest.com the 35-year-old explained: ‘Today is my dad’s birthday.
‘I know there’s nothing more in the world he would have wanted than to meet his grandchildren. So I wanted to share this pic of Saint with you all.’
The first picture: Saint West is seen sleeping in an image released by Kim Kardashian
The two-month-old is seen dressed in a simple cable knit cotton vest, arms outstretched beside his head as he sleeps soundly on a white sheet.
His hands are clenched, as the baby dreams quietly.
February 22 would have been the 72nd birthday of the grandfather Saint will never get to meet – lawyer Robert Kardashian – and it is obviously a date Kim wanted to remember.
