North West seems to REMOVE her controversial finger piercing just weeks after firing back at critics

North West has seemingly taken out her controversial finger piercing – only weeks after clapping back at critics.

The 12-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West shared a series of snaps to Instagram on Tuesday – after making her debut on the social media platform earlier this month.

In the photos included in the latest post, the preteen could be seen posing up a storm with two of her pals while spending time in the snow.

And in a few images, North placed her right hand near her face – where she had previously showed off the piercing back in the summer.

In August, she revealed what appeared to be a dermal piercing on her right hand during a trip to Italy with her mother – and consisted of two small silver balls below her knuckle on her middle finger.

However, the piercing seems to have been removed, with her hand now bare.

Earlier this month, North jumped to the joint TikTok account she shares with her famous mom to offer a response towards the criticism.

The preteen filmed a short selfie video at the time as a soundbite played in the background saying, ‘Why are you crying? How old are you? Just pull it together.’

She also added text over the reel which read: ‘this is for everyone that’s mad over a finger piercing.’

North first offered a glimpse at the jewelry on her hand during an excursion with her mom in Rome in August.

She had also uploaded since-deleted photos that offered a look into the process of getting the piercing, per screenshots taken by The Sun.

One TikTok user by the name @mazzy_williams shared a post at the time in response to the 12-year-old’s latest bling.

‘north west getting a finger piercing is breaking my heart, just me?’ she had written over a clip of herself throwing her hand over her mouth. The caption had read, ”what is going on #northwest #kardashians.’

The Kardashians star came to her eldest child’s defense in the comment section of the TikTok and simply wrote, ‘it’s okay.’

Fans offered their mixed reaction to North getting the bling, with one saying, ‘It’s such a non-issue.’

However, another shared, ‘She’s literally 12 lol she’s a child and that’s a pretty permanent decision.’

A couple months later in October, North took to her joint TikTok account she shares with her mom and debuted fake face tattoos as well as grillz.

In a series of reels, her blue locks were styled into braids as the 12-year-old sported black grillz as well as a fake nose piercing.

The clips had also garnered a wave of mixed reactions from social media users and Kardashian soon clapped back after her eldest child was criticized by trolls over the look.

The reality star responded to a TikTok video uploaded by Daily Mail Australia which covered the backlash and penned in the comment section, ‘This is such a non-issue.’ But it was later revealed it was North herself who penned the short message.

During an appearance on Complex’s GOAT Talk YouTube series last month, Kardashian revealed her daughter’s response to the backlash.

‘She was like, “I don’t get it. It’s a Halloween costume. It’s all fake,”‘ the TV personality said. Kardashian then explained that it had been North who actually responded with, ‘This is such a non-issue.’

The All’s Fair actress then labeled that harsh criticism from trolls as both ‘disturbing’ and ‘horrible.’

North’s new post comes not long after she made her official Instagram debut on December 19.

Her first post was a slightly blurred image of herself as she flashed peace signs toward the camera.

Nearly two weeks after she joined the social media platform, the preteen has already garnered nearly over one million followers.

North has been active on Instagram since then, and also jumped to her stories to share more snaps on Tuesday.

One was a blurry picture that the preteen took with a pal – with the New York City location tag placed on top.

North also spent time with media personality Dani Levi in other pictures that she reposted to her Instagram stories.

The nepo baby has been keeping busy over the holidays, and recently shared a cozy Christmas moment with her stepmom Bianca Censori.

North reposted a screenshot to her Instagram stories last week which was originally shared by rapper Babyxsosa.

In the snap, the preteen could be seen sitting closely next to Censori as they held a conversation with the music artist via FaceTime.

While it is not known when exactly when the video call took place, it appears to have occurred around the holiday due to the emoji.

Censori has spent time with North as well as her siblings since tying the knot with her father Kanye West in 2022.

The Australian-born architect has also taken on stepmom duty on a number of occasions over the years.

Most recently, both Censori and West were seen spending time with his other three children Saint, 10, Chicago, seven, and Psalm, six – whom the rapper also shares with Kardashian – at Disneyland amid the festive season.

The SKIMS founder and West also reportedly reunited over the Christmas holiday, per TMZ; former couple seen in 2020 in Paris

The SKIMS founder and West also reportedly reunited over the Christmas holiday, per TMZ.

The move comes after the music artist has taken time to reflect on his past behavior -which includes anti-Semitic posts and social media rants.

Sources told the outlet that the former couple are working on a positive co-parenting relationship – and were respectful and cordial with each other during the holiday reunion.

While the Heartless rapper had previously voiced his disapproval of North being on social media, TMZ reported that he is also becoming more supportive of his preteen daughter.
