Khloe Kardashian called her eight-year-old nephew Saint West the “sweetest” as she gushed over his “connection” with her two-year-old son Tatum.
On Tuesday, the 40-year-old reality TV star, who recently wowed in a bikini, shared a sweet throwback snap of her cousins on her Instagram.
Apparently taken during the past Easter holiday, Tatum was caught hugging Saint from behind as they drew Easter eggs, chicks and bunnies in Khloe’s living room.
“I was scrolling through my camera roll and came across this photo of Saint and Tatum,” Khloe wrote in the caption of the post.
‘Saint is absolutely sweet when it comes to babies, but his connection with Tatum is one that can’t be explained.

“Saint is absolutely sweet when it comes to babies but his connection with Tatum is inexplicable,” she wrote on Instagram on Tuesday. Saint’s mom, Kim, also chimed in.
“They were meant to be together in each other’s lives! Proud Auntie! Proud Mom!” the Good American founder added.
Saint is the second oldest of Khloe Kardashian’s four children born to her sister Kim Kardashian and her ex-husband Kanye West.
And the SKIMS founder gushed about the “connection” between Saint and her cousin Tatum in the comments section of Khloe’s IG post.
“Sainty loves Tatum so much. We all love him,” Kim wrote.
A close friend of Khloe’s chimed in, writing: “A saint is a saint to babies. And well, for baby Tatum, there are no words.”
And the mother of two replied: ‘@malika Saint really is the BEST with little ones. Love you Mika.’
Khloe shares baby Tatum and six-year-old daughter True with ex-boyfriend and NBA star Tristan Thompson, 33.
Tatum was born via surrogate in July 2022 following her father’s infamous paternity scandal which DailyMail.com exclusively revealed in December 2021.
The couple had already undergone an embryo transfer when Khloe learned that Tristan had secretly fathered a child with fitness model Maralee Nichols.

Together with Tatum, Khloe is mother to six-year-old daughter True.
Despite multiple cheating scandals throughout their six-year relationship, Khloe has continued to claim that Tristan is an “amazing father” to their two children.
“He made mistakes,” he said. SHE MD in May, “He’s the nicest guy and we get along really well now.”
“We weren’t meant to be together, but he was meant to be the father of these kids. And we got along so well and I’m so thankful for that because my parents got along so well,” she told hosts Dr. Thais Aliabadi and Mary Alice Haney.
Khloe previously said she has no intentions of getting back together with the athlete, even going so far as to say she is no longer “attracted” to him.
Parents recently celebrated an important milestone for their six-year-old daughter.
Last week, True started first grade and her mom Khloe shared an emotional tribute to her first day.
The proud mom posted photos of True in her school uniform of a white blouse and blue plaid skirt.
Khloe set up her usual elaborate photo backdrop to mark the occasion with pastel-colored balloons and giant crayons.
“First grade!! I am so proud of you! I know you have an amazing year ahead of you! I couldn’t be happier for you my angel,” she began her message.
