Khloe Kardashian calls sister Kim’s robbery ‘a wakeup call’

LOS ANGELES — Khloe Kardashian is calling her sister’s robbery in Paris “a wakeup call for everybody” but is pushing back against criticism that Kim Kardashian West had been too public in displaying her wealth.

“Pulling back on social media I think is a personal choice. … No matter what you post or don’t post. … That shouldn’t give someone a reason to feel like they could do anything like that to you,” she said in an interview Tuesday. “But we definitely are just being more aware and I think just making changes to our lives.”

Armed robbers forced their way in to West’s hotel room, tied her up and locked her in a bathroom before making off with more than $10 million worth of jewelry.

Khloe Kardashian, 32, said the Oct. 3 robbery was “an incredibly traumatic experience for Kim and she’s definitely taking some well needed and much deserved time off.”

She said she isn’t sure when Kardashian West, 35, would make another public appearance, but she batted down rumors that her sister would be leaving the family’s reality series “Keeping Up With the Kardashians.”
