Kimye fly into Paris Fashion Week without new baby

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are enjoying a romantic break in Paris without their daughter.

The couple, who welcomed their first child, North West, into the world in June, touched down in the French capital today for Paris Fashion Week.

The reality TV star, 32, and her rapper boyfriend took a private jet from Los Angeles' Van Nuys Airport to San Francisco, California, yesterday morning, where they then transferred to a commercial flight, according to gossip website TMZ.com.

Their four-month-old daughter was nowhere in sight as they made their way through SFO airport with a small entourage.

An insider also told UsMagazine.com: "Kim was sad to say goodbye. This is the first time she's been away from the baby."

Kim was spotted applying for North's first passport last month but she has yet to take the tot out of the USA.

A source revealed that the couple opted to fly out of San Francisco as Kanye, 36, has been advised to avoid the paparazzi at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) by his lawyers.

The 'New Slaves' hitmaker is being sued by a photographer for criminal battery and his team do not want him to get into another confrontation with snappers.

Prosecutors are allegedly gathering evidence from four other incidents in a bid to prove that Kanye's first instinct is to attack when he sees a photographer.
