The two were spotted vacationing together in the South of France for the rapper's birthday.

As <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/kim-kardashian-olivia-rodrigo-drivers-license-sour-album-instagram" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kim Kardashian</a> and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/kanye-west-fashion-design-evolution-yeezy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kanye West</a>'s <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/kim-kardashian-kanye-west-getting-divorced-lawyers-settlement" target="_blank" rel="noopener">divorce</a> continues to unfold, it seems the rapper is moving on. While celebrating his birthday in the South of France, the "Monster" artist was seen hanging out with model <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/irina-shayk-model-street-style-daughter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Irina Shayk</a> in photos published by the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-9669195/Kanye-West-dating-Irina-Shayk-takes-romantic-trip-France.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daily Mail</a>. The pair were spotted visiting vineyards in Provence, France with a group of people.
"They have known each other professionally for years. He started pursuing her a few weeks ago. Kanye is a persuasive guy," a source confided to <a href="https://people.com/music/kanye-west-irina-shayk-seeing-each-other-france-trip/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">People</a>. "He hung out with her in NYC before they celebrated his birthday in France."
The Russian model was featured in West's "Power" music video in 2010. She previously dated soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo from 2009 to 2015. Shortly after their split, she began a relationship with <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/celebrity-breakups-miley-liam-kylie-travis-2019" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bradley Cooper</a> whom she dated for four years before parting ways in 2019. They share a daughter, Lea De Seine. Since her breakup with Cooper, she has not been romantically linked to anyone serious.
The insider also explained, "<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">She seems smitten. He invited her to France and she happily accepted. They are not officially dating, but there is an interest from both sides."
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">Another related a similar sentiment to <a href="https://pagesix.com/2021/06/09/kanye-west-and-irina-shayk-are-dating-its-casual/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Page Six</a>, confirming, "Kanye and Irina are seeing each other. It&rsquo;s casual at the moment, but they are into each other. It&rsquo;s been going on for a few weeks now.&rdquo;
Reports emerged in early 2021 of Kimye's impending split before Kardashian <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/kim-kardashian-officially-files-for-divorce-from-kanye-west" target="_blank" rel="noopener">officially filed</a> for divorce in February. While the two have been living separately for a year, this is West's first known relationship since ending his marriage&mdash;not including rumors of an <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/are-kanye-west-and-jeffree-star-dating" target="_blank" rel="noopener">affair</a> with <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/jeffree-star-denies-kanye-west-dating-rumors-kim-kardashian-divorce" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jeffree Star</a>. While the soon-to-be ex-spouses have not spoken publicly about their <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/biggest-celebrity-breakups-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener">breakup</a>, recent episodes of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/kim-kourtney-khloe-kardashian-kris-jenner-talk-ending-keeping-up-with-the-kardashians" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Keeping Up with the Kardashians</a> have given fans an inside look at their <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/kim-kardashian-kanye-west-divorce-keeping-up-with-the-kardashians-finale" target="_blank" rel="noopener">relationship woes</a>.
However, they seem to be on good terms as of late. Yesterday, Kardashian <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/kim-kardashian-kanye-west-instagram-birthday-tribute" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posted a family photo</a> to celebrate the Yeezy founder's birthday. "Happy Birthday," the KKW Beauty mogul wrote in the caption, "Love U for Life!"
