Although North could join her mother and aunts for some festivities before the event, she was missing on the carpet due to the fundraiser’s 18-and-up policy. However, North didn’t let that stop her from cheering for her mom.
“She’s actually in the car watching us all walk up the red carpet,” Kardashian revealed. “So it was just a glamorous night.”
