Kanye West has reportedly moved on from Kim Kardashian with Russian supermodel and Bradley Cooper’s ex, Irina Shayk.

The unlikely pair were photographed together for the first time yesterday while holidaying in the south of France for the rapper’s 44th birthday.

Page Six reports West and 35-year-old Shayk, who was in a relationship with Cooper for four years before they split in 2019, have been dating for a short amount of time.

“Kanye and Irina are seeing each other. It’s casual at the moment, but they are into each other,” a source told the publication.

“It’s been going on for a few weeks now.”

West, who is in the middle of a divorce with his wife of seven years Kardashian, was seen walking side-by-side with Shayk on the sprawling Provence property, Villa La Coste, in the French countryside.

It’s the rapper’s first relationship since Kardashian, the mother of his four children, filed for divorce in March.

Kardashian, 40, paid loving tribute to her soon-to-be ex-husband on Instagram yesterday, declaring “Love u for life”.

Shayk broke her silence on their split for the first time last year, telling British Vogue:

“I think we’ve been very lucky to experience what we had with each other,” Shayk said of Cooper. “Life without B is new ground.”

She added: “I have a strong personality and I definitely know what I want, and I think some men are scared of that.”

Despite their recent union, West and Shayk go way back.

The Victoria’s Secret model appeared in West’s 2010 music video for his song Power, and walked the runway for his Yeezy fashion line at Paris Fashion Week in 2012.

Meanwhile, Kardashian is reportedly not ready to date and is yet to be linked to anyone.

The anticipated finale of her long-running reality show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, is set to air on Friday.

Viewers are expected to see the billionaire reality queen make a final decision on the future of her relationship with West, with the episode filmed in December.

In the penultimate episode last week, Kardashian was seen breaking down about her failing marriage, following West’s repeated public meltdowns.

“I honestly can’t do this anymore,” she said through tears. “Why am I still in this like, place where I’m stuck for years? Like, he goes and moves to a different state, every year, I have to be together so I can raise the kids, you know? And he’s an amazing dad, he’s done an amazing job …

She added: “(But) I think he deserves someone that can and go follow him all over the place and move to Wyoming. I can’t do that.

“He should have a wife that supports his every move and travels and does everything and I can’t.

“I feel like a f***ing failure that it’s a third marriage. Yeah, I feel like a f***ing loser.”
