Sure, that was trying for the couple, coming on the heels of Kim&#8217;s own traumatic experience as it did\u2014but hey, they&#8217;re married. And people as devoted to each other as Kimye are don&#8217;t just cut and run. Kanye leaving his own show mid-song when he found out about Kim&#8217;s trouble in Paris is far more indicative of the state of their bond\u2014strong as hell\u2014than any stretches of silence that came after.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">That being said, they are both equally aware that to live in the public eye is a give and take, and they&#8217;re not the types to let public opinion get too far out of hand. So&#8230;ready or not&#8230; date night Dec. 18.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Amid speculation that they were having issues, Kim and Kanye went out for dinner together in Santa Monica, at the time their first time photographed out together since the day after the robbery, when Kim had flown immediately to New York to reunite with Kanye and daughter North and then turned right around and flew back to Los Angeles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Their choice of eatery? Giorgio Baldi, a favorite lurking spot of the paparazzi due to the sheer quantity of A-list celebrities who dine there on a regular basis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Step one on their road back to the spotlight: successful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Yet while sources had assured E! News that Kim and Kanye looked perfectly content when they were spending time at home together, had &#8220;never contemplated a break&#8221; and were working through their tough time, no one was going to be satisfied with that one outing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">But slow and steady wins the race.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">In the meantime, Kim was negotiating her return to social media. Aside from following and unfollowing people, and presumably OKing any content added to her app and website, she herself had been entirely absent from Twitter, Instagram (where she&#8217;s the fifth most-followed person in the world) and Snapchat (whose popularity she helped build).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">There were multiple family milestones that could have provided a logical opportunity to return, including son Saint West&#8217;s first birthday, the birth of her niece Dream Kardashian and Kendall Jenner&#8217;s 21st birthday. She opted to celebrate all of those happy occasions privately.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">By the time the holidays rolled around, however, she was ready\u2014although the Kardashian-Jenner family did not circulate their usual annual holiday card, a tradition for both their family and the rest of us who love to over-analyze them over eggnog every year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Kim had let Rob Kardashian share a pic after Halloween of her wearing matching Princess Jasmine costumes with North, but it wasn&#8217;t until the week leading up to Christmas that she appeared on Snapchat and Instagram (via friends&#8217; and family&#8217;s accounts, that is), posing for pictures and video at her family&#8217;s holiday party. Quite glamorous and high-profile, but still a safe space.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">The holiday cheer continued when Kim and Kanye took budding ballerina North to see The Nutcracker in nearby Redondo Beach with Kourtney Kardashian and daughter Penelope.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">After Christmas, Kim ventured out to visit Joyce Bonnelli in the hospital after the makeup artist gave birth to twin sons\u2014and who doesn&#8217;t want to pose for a picture holding not one, but two newborn babies?!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">She and Kanye spent a low-key New Year&#8217;s Eve together, then took off with their kids on New Year&#8217;s Day for an overnight trip to Oklahoma to visit for the first time the final resting place of Kanye&#8217;s beloved mom, Donda West, who died in 2007.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">After such a momentous recharging moment\u2014spiritually, mentally and emotionally\u2014they returned to their Bel-Air home on Monday night and on Tuesday, with Kim&#8217;s return to social media, they more or less resumed their lives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8220;I really cried when I seen that @KimKardashian put a post on Instagram. Like I missed her,&#8221; tweeted one of the lucky fans who got a retweet from Kim last night upon her return to Twitter, some hours after her first Instagram post of 2017.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p lang=\"und\" dir=\"ltr\">Awww \u2764\u2764\u2764??? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/J8UvOcT4Y2\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/J8UvOcT4Y2<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KimKardashian\/status\/816461113164316672\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">January 4, 2017<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">With that, Kim was really back, engaging with her followers for the first time in months as she used to do on a near daily basis\u2014as she knew she would need to do again sooner rather than later, being who she is. While there were some snide comments from those judging other people&#8217;s excited reactions to Kim being back on social media, causing her to become a trending topic&#8230; really, what would a Kim Kardashian Instagram post be without a little backlash?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Finally, Twitter is looking normal again.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\"> And almost simultaneously last night, Kim&#8217;s little peach emoji popped back up in the Snapchat queue for the first time in months as well. She had posted a condensed version of the two-minute-plus video that she had shared earlier.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">&#8220;Kanye made me two versions for my Christmas present,&#8221; she wrote.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">Source:-\u00a0http:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/819597\/kim-kardashian-and-kanye-west-remain-media-masterminds-family-first-but-a-precise-return-to-the-spotlight-all-the-same<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/celebrities\/kim-kardashian-and-kanye-west-remain-media-masterminds.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Remain Media Masterminds Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Remain Media Masterminds:- A break from social media hasn&#8217;t made Kim Kardashian any less of an expert at it.
