Kim Kardashian West has ‘flashbacks’ about her robbery

Kim Kardashian West has "flashbacks" to the night of her Paris robbery.

The 35-year-old star was involved in a horrific ordeal when she was tied up, put in a bath and had more than $10 million worth of jewellery stolen from her by five masked, armed men in Paris, France, last week, and a source close to the beauty has revealed she "still has a long way to recover".

Speaking to E! News, the source said: "Kim is doing better but she still has a long way to recover from the robbery. She has been receiving some professional counseling. Her friends and family have been really supportive. Her sisters and mom have been checking on her every day.

"Kim is very paranoid still when she is alone. She has been having flashbacks and hasn’t been sleeping well. Her security is always around her now."

And whilst the ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star finds being around her children – North, three, and Saint, 10 months – is a good distraction, the beauty and her husband Kanye West aren’t telling the tots what happened.

The insider said: "Being around her children is the biggest distraction for her mind. North West is aware her mom is sad and not herself, but Kanye and Kim are trying not to talk about it around her."

Despite Kanye, 39, deciding to continue on his ‘Saint Pablo Tour’, the rapper makes sure to check in with his wife as often as he can, and stays by her side "when he isn’t working".

The source added: "Kanye has been by her side when he isn’t working and calling her nonstop to check in on her."

The update on Kim’s condition comes after her sister Khloé revealed the star wasn’t "doing that well".

She said: "She’s not doing that well. It’s incredibly traumatic what happened to her, but our family is super close and great and we’ll get through it together.

"We do appreciate all of your guys’ love and support. It will take time. It was horrible what happened to her."
