Not gonna make the cut. Keeping Up With the Kardashians was not filming at the time of Kim Kardashian’s Monday, October 3, Paris robbery, a spokesperson for E! tells Us Weekly in a statement.
“All of us at E! are incredibly thankful that Kim Kardashian West is safe, and we send her and her family our love and support,” the statement reads. “Keeping Up With the Kardashians was not filming at the time of the robbery. Our focus right now is entirely on Kim’s well-being.”
As previously reported, the reality TV superstar, 35, was held at gunpoint, tied up and locked in the bathroom of her private Paris residence while a group of men pretending to be police officers robbed her around 2:25 a.m. on Monday morning. The attackers took millions of dollars worth of jewelry and two iPhones. The stolen pieces include a ring worth an estimated $4.5 million.
Following the terrifying incident, Kardashian’s rep told Us that the Selfish author is “badly shaken, but physically unharmed.”
After the assailants left her home via bicycles, the mom of two — she shares daughter North, 3, and son Saint, 9 months, with husband Kanye West — filed a police report with French officials and then fled to New York City to reunite with her family. During a Sunday-night show in Queens, New York, her hip-hop hubby, 39, stopped midperformance and told the audience it was due to a “family emergency.”
Not long after touching down in the Big Apple on Monday, the social-media maven and the “Famous” rapper made their way back to their downtown apartment accompanied by a 15-car motorcade.
Despite the frightening episode, Kardashian does not blame her longtime bodyguard, Pascal Duvier, for not being there when she was violently mugged. A source told Us that she felt safe staying alone at her and West’s apartment in the luxury building known as the Hôtel de Portals.
“Pascal was with Kourtney and Kendall at L’Arc Nightclub. Kim felt safe at the apartment by herself,” the insider told Us of where Duvier was during the robbery. “Kim is not blaming Pascal. She felt completely safe at the Paris apartment and doesn’t believe this is his fault in any way.”
Keeping Up With the Kardashians returns to E! for its 12th season Sunday, October 23, at 9 p.m. ET.
