World-famous television star Kim Kardashian was shaken by both a assassination threat from someone very close to her and the robbery she experienced in Paris years ago. The celebrity tearfully recounted her fear of death.
ASSASSINATION THREAT: SOMEONE VERY CLOSE TO ME HIRED A HITMAN
In the trailer for the 7th season of The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian made a shocking confession to her fans. The 44-year-old mother of four said she was in shock after receiving a phone call from police officials. "Someone very close to me hired a hitman to take my life," Kardashian said, expressing her fear with tears.
The trailer featured all members of the Kardashian family. Khloé, Kourtney, Kris Jenner, Kylie, Kendall, and Rob Kardashian's tense demeanor caught attention. Kendall Jenner said, "Everyone is a bit tense," while Kylie Jenner recounted hearing footsteps entering her room. Kim Kardashian stated, "I feel like I'm going to lose my mind from fear."
PARIS ROBBERY: I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE
One of the biggest traumas in Kim Kardashian's life occurred on October 3, 2016, in Paris. That night, robbers dressed in police uniforms and masks entered her room, tied up the famous star, and threw her into the bathtub. Many pieces of jewelry were stolen, including the $4 million engagement ring gifted by her then-husband Kanye West.
Kardashian recounted her horror in her testimony during the trial held in May, saying, "At that moment, I was sure they were going to rape me. I absolutely thought I was going to die."
GRANDPA ROBBERS AND THE LEGAL PROCESS
The gang, which had a high average age, was referred to in the media as the "grandpa robbers." Following the incident, more than 17 people were detained. The police caught the criminals thanks to DNA traces found on the plastic handcuffs that were tied to Kardashian's wrists.
In the case opened in 2021, a total of 12 people were charged. On May 23, 2023, the gang leader and 7 others were found guilty.
