Kanye West has taught Kim Kardashian West to ''take a little more time'' for herself.

The reality TV star, who married the rapper in Florence, Italy last May, says they have ''learned a lot from each other'' about how to communicate with their fans.

The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' beauty, who has 17-month-old daughter North with the 'New Slaves' hitmaker, said: ''I think I've learned boundaries maybe from him. Like I used to, when we were eating, spend half of our meal just taking pictures with people, so we have rules at the table. If we're eating at a restaurant, we'll wait until we're done [to take pictures].

''He's taught me to take a little time for myself and I've taught him stop a little more to take time and take pictures and stuff. So I think we've both taught each other a lot and kept it a good balance.''

In a new behind-the-scenes video from her recent naked photo-shoot for Paper magazine, the 34-year-old star also revealed that Kanye, 37, didn't have a phone for four years until they started dating in 2012.

She said: ''Kanye didn't have a phone for four years. Especially when we first started dating, it was rude if we brought our phones with us out. So I learned from him just to not really bring my phone.''
