Fans suspect Saint West briefly took over his mom’s Instagram account to promote his new YouTube channel—prompting viral reactions and renewed scrutiny on the Kardashian-West family dynamics.
Los Angeles, May-1, 2025:
In a surprising twist of celebrity-meets-parenting, Kim Kardashian’s 357-million-strong Instagram account appeared to be hijacked—not by a hacker, but by her 9-year-old son, Saint West.
On Wednesday, followers of the SKIMS founder were caught off guard when a peculiar post appeared on her account, featuring a close-up screenshot of a YouTube channel named @S4intsking with the message:

“Sub to Saint’s channel.”
While no caption accompanied the post, fans quickly connected the dots, speculating that Saint himself may have gotten hold of Kim’s phone.

“SAINT LEAVE YO MAMA PHONE,” one amused fan wrote.
“He’s really going for it 😂😂😂,” added another.
“Saint done hacked the IG for the promo lolol.. smart man,” a third user chimed in.
Saint’s Second Attempt at YouTube Fame
This isn’t Saint’s first foray into the world of content creation. In September 2024, he launched his original YouTube channel under the handle @TheGoatSaint. However, that channel was taken down a month later after an anti-Kamala Harris meme was shared, sparking backlash.

Saint’s apparent rebranding to @S4intsking suggests a fresh start—but this time, with a headline-grabbing promotional strategy courtesy of Mom’s platform.
A representative for Kim Kardashian has yet to comment on the incident.
Kanye’s Shadow in the Background
The impromptu social media stunt comes amid ongoing custody drama and public tension between Kim and her ex-husband Kanye West (Ye), who shares four children with her: North (11), Saint (9), Chicago (7), and Psalm (5).
Kanye has made repeated public allegations that Kim is “keeping the children” away from him, though a source close to Kardashian told Daily Mail that “he can see the kids anytime he wants.” The insider added that Kim’s priority is to keep the environment safe and non-chaotic for her children.
Kanye, who was recently banned from Twitch after controversial livestream remarks, recently made headlines again for saying he would “go get” his kids, adding fuel to ongoing concerns about his behavior.
Bottom Line:
Whether it was an innocent moment of childhood mischief or a calculated push for followers, Saint West’s “Instagram takeover” reminds the world that even in the Kardashian household, parenting in the digital age comes with its unique challenges.
