Kim Kardashian suffered from agoraphobia during her quarantine as a result of her terrifying 2016 Paris robbery. Her trauma, according to the reality star, resurfaced during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“We had just gone to Paris. We had just started travelling, and then quarantine happened. Now I’m, like, such a freak all over again and never want to, like, leave home,” Kim said in a newly released clip from “Keeping Up With the Kardashians.”
Kim Kardashian recalled feeling that way in the aftermath of her robbery in Paris, France.
The Skims founder told her sister Khloé Kardashian in the clip, “I feel like I had agoraphobia, definitely, after my robbery in Paris. Like, definitely would stay in, hated to go out, I didn’t want anyone to know where I was or be seen. I just had such anxiety.”
According to her, her high anxiety returned during the pandemic, when she and her now-divorced husband Kanye West ventured out in public for the first time.
“I was so freaked out. People were trying to come up to Kanye and, like, talk to him and, like, come up to me and ask for photos.
“I was just, like, absolutely not. I would stop people, like, ‘Get away. This is my first time out, I’m not comfortable with you coming a step closer. I don’t get even remotely unless fans have a selfie stick and want to do it six feet away. That was, like, high anxiety on another level,” Kim said.
In October 2016, Kim was tied up and placed in the bathtub of her hotel room by five armed robbers who pretended to be cops in order to gain entry. They walked away with a total of $10 million in jewellery, including a $5 million engagement ring from West.
