Kim Kardashian denied an assertion that her controversial 40th birthday celebration was the cause of her and her children contracting the coronavirus last fall.
In October, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star revealed on social media that she held a lavish 40th birthday party on a private island amid the pandemic. Although she explained that the gathering of her closest friends and family was done with safety in mind by employing COVID-19 tests, quarantining methods and more, many were still outraged at the wealthy star’s display of privilege at a time when the rest of the world was being encouraged to stay home.
Viewers learned during the May 27 episode of the star’s reality show that Kardashian contracted COVID-19 in the fall of 2020. In response to a tweet featuring a Buzzfeed News article that suggested the SKIMS founder’s illness coincided with her lavish 40th birthday party, Kardashian unequivocally shut the rumors down.
