An intimate portrait of Kim Kardashian: Untold details of her terrifying Paris robbery ordeal to explosive family secrets… inside the bombshell new biography serialised exclusively by the Daily Mail

Since she catapulted to fame almost two decades ago, the world has been gripped by Kim Kardashian and her glamorous life.

Whether it’s her colourful love affairs, her iconic viral moments breaking the internet or her eye-watering selfies, there’s never a shortage of drama surrounding Kim or her family.

Such is the fascination with her life, she now has 343 million followers on Instagram alone and a fortune of around £1.4billion after becoming the world’s most watched woman.

And now the Daily Mail is to serialise a bombshell book, Citizen Kim: The Woman Who Created The Future, in three parts starting tomorrow at 11am. 

The biography offers a forensic look into Kim’s life and her role as a cultural icon. 

It reveals riveting new details through the eyes of author Jonathan Van Meter – one of America’s most distinguished writers – who was given unprecedented access to the star over five years.

Van Meter, who has written for Vogue and New York magazine, has been working on  the book since 2019 – predating her divorce from Kanye West. He even documents his stay at her mansion in the Hidden Hills, just outside of Los Angeles city centre.

Kim – who was once only known as Paris Hilton’s best friend and became a global star with Keeping Up With the Kardashians in 2007 – allowed Van Meter into her life, giving him a rare insight into what it’s really like to be the most followed woman in the world.

Now one of Anna Wintour’s favorite writers, Van Meter made his name after writing the infamous 1990 Vogue interview with Linda Evangelista. The piece featured Evangelista’s legendary quote that she and Christy Turlington ‘don’t wake up for less than $10,000 a day’.

Over the next three days, the Daily Mail will feature the best revelations from Citizen Kim, including the harrowing new details about how she was kidnapped in Paris by robbers who stole £7.5million of jewellery, including a diamond engagement ring, during the city’s fashion week in 2016.

There are also brand new revelations about the extravagant lengths West went to woo Kim in the early days of their relationship, as well as the truth about why she was so shocked when she fell pregnant with her eldest child North.

And the book delivers a bombshell detailing the moment she discovered Caitlyn Jenner’s deepest secret, as well as what she really thinks about her three disastrous marriages – all based on exclusive testimonies from dozens of Kim’s closest friends, family members and associates.
