Kim Kardashian has admitted she was left ‘mortified’ after her son Saint shared a post promoting his Fortnite account on her Instagram – just hours after Donald Trump won the presidential election.

The mother-of-four was promptly slammed for sharing such an out of touch Instagram Reel on her page – though some fans theorized at the time that her eight-year-old son was likely responsible.

Speaking on the What in the Winkler? podcast this week, the 44-year-old confirmed that the post had been created and shared by her child – leaving his mother embarrᴀssed by the incident.

During a discussion with podcast host and her childhood friend, Zoe Winkler, Kim — who shared she feels like a single parent — was explaining how she is often reminded of the need to ‘give yourself grace’ as a parent.

‘Like if your kid says a bad word or something where you would be mortified,’ the star began. ‘Like when Saint took my phone and posted… and my publicist is writing me like “This is what you’re posting on Election Day?”

The Skims founder continued: ‘And I was like, “It’s a kid. He has no idea”.’

Kim then noted how it wasn’t the first time her son had caused embarrᴀssment for her in recent weeks after she was forced to delete his YouTube account due to him sharing two posts critical of Vice President Kamala Harris.

The Skkn by Kim founder continued: ‘He like reposted a video, something about the election, and I took his account down just because he has to ask me before every post.

‘So he’s just started a Fortnite account, and I’m like… you have got to give yourself grace.’

When host Zoe pointed out that children are ‘going to make a million mistakes’, Kim agreed that she makes space for those experiences to happen.

The Kardashian star explained: ‘Sometimes I like when kids work it out themselves, and they figured it out themselves. Sometimes we have to intervene.’

The beauty mogul added that she sometimes isn’t harsh enough with her children and doesn’t always ‘make a big enough deal of things’, but noted that she has started to ‘put my foot down’.

‘If I don’t do this now and fight through the tears, as uncomfortable as that is, then they are always going to get their way,’ the reality star noted. ‘The lesson won’t be learned.’

The YouTube account – which was under the handle @TheGoatSaint – was ‘taken down’ by Kim in the wake of the politically-charged posts, according to The Daily Beast.

‘This page isn’t available. Sorry about that. Try searching for something else,’ a message from YouTube read when clicking on the page.

Social media posts claimed Saint posted a meme of Kamala’s picture on the bottom of a shoe worn by a cartoon character who says, ‘I stepped in s***.’

The ill-timed post came just one week after Kim ‘deleted’ her son’s YouTube page for his anti-Kamala posts
