After being sighted together in France, Kanye West and Irina Shayk have arrived in New York, sparking rumors of a new romance amid his split from Kim Kardashian.
On Wednesday, the two were spotted on the tarmac at Teterboro Airport, where Kanye, 44, appeared to be doing his best to avoid waiting photographers.
While walking between a private airplane and a waiting automobile, the Yeezy founder was seen with the hood of his blue jacket pulled tight around his face and his head down.
Irina, 35, wore a white tracksuit and carried a small vanity case in one hand, with her face hidden under a black face mask and sunglasses.
According to the Daily Mail, the couple was previously seen together in Provence, France, where they were staying at the exclusive Villa La Coste boutique hotel.
It comes after Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, 40, announced their divorce, and the Keeping Up With The Kardashians actress gave her estranged husband a heartfelt birthday message.
‘[Kanye] started pursuing [Irina] a few weeks ago,' a source told People. Kanye is a master of persuasion. He spent time with her in New York City before they traveled to France to celebrate his birthday.
‘She seemed to be smitten. He extended an invitation to her to visit France, which she gladly accepted. They aren't dating, but they are both interested in each other.'
The Russian model was originally associated with Kanye when she starred in his music video for the song Power in 2010 and then walked in his Fall/Winter show at Paris Fashion Week in 2012.
Last month, it was reported that Kim was unconcerned with the Kanye West and Irina Shayk relationship claims, with a source close to Kim telling The Sun: 'She's not disturbed at all about it, no one in her circle seemed to care or believe it.' Even if it's true, I don't think she'll be bothered at this point.'
North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm are Kim and Kanye's four children, although the couple announced their divorce in February.
After four years together, Irina and actor Bradley Cooper divorced in 2019. They have a daughter, Lea De Seine.
