The doubters were hushed this week regarding Kim and Kanye’s relationship status. The discreet duo–aka Kimye–showed their first public display of affection — holding hands while walking down a New York City street. After Kimmie attended the opening of Scott Disick’s new restaurant, RYU, with her family, she met up with the rapper for a late dinner. They were shot hand-in-hand as they arrived at the restaurant Catch in the Meatpacking District.

This first public PDA moment comes on the heels of Kim being seen wearing earrings with the gold initials K and W in her left ear–an apparent warm-up for the following evening. And just think, Kim recently told the British edition of Cosmopolitan, “[I’m] not even close” to dating again following her 72-day marriage to Kris Humphries. We knew she couldn’t stay single for long. But Kanye has been a long-time friend of the family (for nine years in fact) so he’s no stranger to the Kardashian “hurricane.” Could this be (another) “it” for her? Here she seems pretty sure of herself rocking ultra-cool Gucci aviators.  –rpuccia
