Kris Jenner's much younger boyfriend steps up for Kanye as he cradles North in recent pics

Kris Jenner has been a lot more open about her relationship with long-time boyfriend Corey Gamble, who proxied as North's dad during one of their family dinners at the Hollywood hotspot Craig's.

While five-year-old children usually dine at Chuck-E-Cheese or McDonald's, Kardashian children are often seen dining at the top restaurants in Hollywood. Last Friday, Kim Kardashian's eldest daughter North West was seen dining with the adults as they all hit up Craig's for a nice weekend meal.

North joined her grandmother Kris Jenner and her aunt Kourtney Kardashian for their night out, which left us wondering where North's parents were, or where Kourtney's children were.

Accompanying the odd group was Corey Gamble, Kris' longtime boyfriend. Although they didn't use to be so open about their relationship, they've been warming up to being seen in the public eye in the past couple of months which meant more time being spent between the two of them.

In fact, it seems North is incredibly comfortable with Corey already, who was seen cradling her in his arms after she fell asleep inside the restaurant. To help out the two ladies he was with, Corey left the restaurant with North scooped safe and sound in his arms before they entered their car.

At one point during their walk, North woke up due to the paparazzi photography flash surrounding them and ended up awake as she held on to her uncle Corey for dear life.

It seems Corey and Kris are really getting more intimate with their relationship, as he is even considered a part of the Kardashian family nowadays. In fact, their recent trip to Italy has proven that love is definitely in the air, and it seems Kris has finally found happiness again after splitting from her ex-husband, Caitlyn Jenner.
