Kim Kardashian Testifies in Paris About 2016 Robbery Incident
Reality TV star recounts traumatic robbery as she faces her alleged attackers in court.
Kim Kardashian made a notable appearance in a Paris courtroom on Tuesday as she prepared to testify against the individuals dubbed the “grandpa robbers,” who are alleged to have violently robbed her nearly nine years ago. The reality television star and entrepreneur is set to detail the harrowing experience when masked men posed as police officers, breaking into the rental property she occupied during Paris Fashion Week in October 2016.
During the traumatic incident, Kardashian was reportedly tied up with tape and zip ties and intimidated at gunpoint while the assailants made off with millions in jewelry, including a diamond engagement ring valued at $4 million. The 44-year-old socialite has previously opened up about the emotional and psychological scars she endured as a result of this experience.
On Tuesday morning, the courthouse was bustling with anticipation, drawing a crowd of journalists, fans, and curious bystanders hoping to catch a glimpse of Kardashian. With no cameras permitted inside the courtroom under French law, attendees lined the marble halls, with many snapping selfies and enjoying the buzz of the significant case.
Kardashian’s appearance in court is particularly crucial as it stands as her only opportunity to confront those accused of robbing her directly and recount her traumatic story in person. The proceedings are projected to draw media attention as they reflect on broader themes surrounding celebrity safety and the public's fascination with crime stories.
