Kim Kardashian emerges with baby North at funeral of Kanye West's grandfather

She's remained in hiding since the birth of her daughter North two months ago.
But Kim Kardashian braved the public eye for the first time on Saturday in order to support her boyfriend Kanye West at the funeral of his grandfather.
The couple took their baby daughter to Oklahoma to say farewell to Portwood Williams Senior, who died at the age of 98 on August 10.

Kim dressed respectfully in all black, wearing a high necked ruffled dress and covering her arms with a long sleeved crocheted cardigan.
On her feet were simple silver heels, while she wore her hair loose and layered around her face.
The new mother carried her baby daughter, holding her close against her chest under a grey shawl as they left the ceremony surrounded by a crowd of mourners.
Just North's feet could be seen, sticking out under the blanket in a tiny pair of socks.

Respectful: While Kim loves revealing outfits, she chose a high neckline and long sleeves for the funeral

But a fellow guest at the ceremony revealed the baby was wearing white.
'She’s got a head full of hair and a beautiful olive skin tone,' they told Radar.
A second source added: 'She looks like Mason did when he was a baby. They even have the same eyebrows.'
While Kanye is known for his love of high fashion, he dressed appropriately in a smart black suit with navy blue shirt.

It was the very first trip away from home for little Nori, who was born in Los Angeles on June 15.
And while the occasion was a sad one, it is sure to have been a welcome chance for Kanye to introduce his only child to her extended family.
While his mother, Dondra, died aged 58 following plastic surgery in 2007, the rapper remains in close contact with her family, visiting regularly.

And although North sadly missed the chance to meet her great-grandfather, Mr Williams did previously meet Kanye's famous girlfriend - and give her his blessing.
Back in February he voiced his approval for his grandson's girlfriend, calling her 'beautiful.'  He added: 'And she's just as sweet as she is beautiful. That's what I liked about her!' 
Showing she shares her boyfriend's sense of duty, Kim chose to miss her little sister Sweet Sixteen to support Kanye at the funeral.

While the famous couple were unable to join Kylie on Saturday night, they did send  Kanye's hip-hop chums Drake and Big Sean along to entertain the teen on her big night.
And it seems Kim's devotion is returned.
A newly released preview of an upcoming episode of Kris Jenner's chatshow shows Kanye make a surprise appearance.

Seal of approval: Kanye's grandfather previously met Kim and called her 'beautiful and sweet'

While he can be protective of his privacy, he chose to open up about his feelings in order to support his girlfriend's mother.
Kanye joked that he's been 'so in love' with 32-year-old Kim that he thought about 'playing sports'.
Famously, Kim previously dated sports stars Reggie Bush and Kris Humphries.
