Roughly one year ago, Kim Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint in her hotel room while visiting Paris. It’s an incident she’s since been quite open about—both in interviews and on Keeping Up With the Kardashians. From her comments, it’s clear her life was irrevocably changed by the robbery. She’s now not as public on social media, she doesn’t post as many updates in real time, and she’s beefed up her security immensely. In fact, Kardashian said on the show she can’t sleep at night now unless a handful of security guards are outside her house.
Even still, Kardashian has anxiety about her safety, which is totally understandable. We see an example of this uneasiness unfold in the next episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. While on vacation in Mexico, Kardashian had an anxiety attack about feeling unsafe in the villa she was staying—and the cameras captured the entire thing.
“I just have anxiety. Are you sure it’s safe here? ” Kardashian says to Joe Francis, who owns the villa where she’s staying, on the phone. “Why did I come, you know?” She’s crying pretty intensely in this scene, too.
“Ever since Paris, I go through this worst-case scenario mode in my head,” she says in a voiceover interview. “I was so excited to come on this trip, and I had no idea I was going to end up feeling this way. But it hit me right as we were getting off the plane that all these people at the airport are ‘gonna see 17 or 18 girls with all of our Chanel bags and Louis Vuitton this. It just hit me, like, we’re the biggest target ever.”
Watch the moment happen for yourself, below. It’s truly heartbreaking.

The cure for Kardashian’s paranoia is unclear. What happened to her is traumatizing and terrifying. Thankfully, she has a supportive family who’s helping her cope. We hope she can find peace of mind soon, though. No one should ever feel unsafe while on vacation—or anywhere, for that matter.
