If there’s one thing that Kim Kardashian won’t tolerate, it’s the theory that she faked her 2016 Paris robbery.

The Dec. 4 episode of The Kardashians followed Kim’s return to Paris to testify in the trial for the ten people who robbed her nearly a decade ago, and she directly addressed those who were skeptical about whether the heist really happened, calling out her ex-husband Kanye West in particular.

“My ex-husband had said, ‘And you faked your robbery for a TV show,’ and had said that in front of all these people,” Kim, 45, said in a confessional as she teared up. “That was a knife to my heart.”

“Just to think that someone wouldn’t believe you — that’s so close to you, that should know you, that should know how much that affected your life — it just really bothered me. You don’t know who I am.”

West, 48, was married to Kim at the time of the heist, though they divorced in 2021. The rapper canceled a New York City concert mid-show for what he called a “family emergency” when he learned the news, before rushing to her side when she returned to the U.S.

In the confessional, after reflecting on the doubts her ex had spread about the validity of the robbery, during which she was tied up, held at gunpoint and robbed of over $10 million of jewels, Kim said of testifying, “To finally be able to go to trial and face these people and hear their accounts and apologies, I’m like, see, guys. It was real.”

Through tears, she added, “I’m happy it’s over.”

Elsewhere during the episode, Kim remembered saying a prayer when the robbers entered her hotel room in the middle of the night, dressed as police officers. She was dressed in only a robe, and during her testimony, she said, “I was sure I was going to be raped.”

Going into court in May, she was calm, with her mom, Kris Jenner, by her side, as well as her childhood friend, Simone Harouche, who testified on Kim’s behalf.

“This was less than 10 minutes of my life. I’ve lived an amazing life,” Kim said in a confessional about her mindset going into testifying. “That’s always given me a little bit of peace, just to know — what was it? 8, 9 minutes? — of pure terror and panic aren’t going to ruin me.”

When she returned to her hotel after the nearly six-hour testimony, Kim told Kris, 70, that the experience “changed my life for the better.”

“I wanted to say that [during the testimony], and I thought my attorneys were gonna kill me,” she told her mom. “They’d lose it if I said that. Said, ‘Thank you for doing this to me.’”
