Kim Kardashian recently clarified a social media incident involving a removed photo of her with Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan that sparked considerable speculation. During an appearance on sister Khloe Kardashian’s podcast, “Khloe in Wonder Land,” she explained the innocent circumstances behind the deletion.
At Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday party, the photo of the royal couple initially attracted attention, but it became a topic of intense media scrutiny after Kris took it down. Kardashian revealed that the family received confirmation that it was fine to post the image; however, shortly after it went live, they realized it coincided with Remembrance Day in the U.K. They decided to remove it to show respect for the occasion, during which many commemorate the sacrifices made by military service members.
Kardashian noted, “Mom and Meghan have been friends for some years now, and they have a really sweet relationship,” emphasizing that it was all a misunderstanding. She acknowledged the royal couple’s public appearance at the Baby2Baby charity gala on the same night but recognized the potential insensitivity of celebrating at a party on such a significant day.
Reflecting on the situation, Kardashian expressed her desire to make light of it rather than allow it to spiral into controversy. She suggested it could have been approached as a humorous moment, even considering a fun marketing idea for her shapewear brand, Skims. However, she stated that all involved preferred to let the matter pass quietly.
Kardashian’s account sheds light on the sometimes overwhelming scrutiny faced by public figures, especially in matters of timing and respect for cultural traditions. This incident serves as a reminder that intentions can often be misconstrued, and a lighthearted approach can sometimes help ease tension.
