Kim Kardashian Robbery Spotlighted In BBC Three Doc
The BBC is to tell the story of Kim Kardashian’s robbery and reveal new details. A BBC Three documentary, The Kim Kardashian Diamond Heist, will drop later this month, with new insight into what happened nearly a decade ago and following the story up to the reality superstar facing her robbers in court last month, where eight people were found guilty. Featuring interviews with friends of the family, police officers and journalists who have followed the case, the doc takes viewers back to that fateful night when she was robbed of millions of dollars’ worth of jewellery in Paris at gunpoint. Nasfim Haque, Head of Content at BBC Three, said: “This documentary offers an insight into one of the most publicised celebrity crimes of our time committed on one of the most famous women on the planet which will delve into the facts behind the gossip and explore the price of fame in the digital age.” The Kim Kardashian Diamond Heist is being produced by Firecracker Films.
