KIM Kardashian has been accused of trying to steal the spotlight from her pregnant sister Kourtney in a new video.
The Kardashians stars have been neck and neck in their recent rivalry.
Now Kim, 42, has been slammed by followers who think she is trying to steal the spotlight from her sister Kourtney, 44.
The reality star took to her Instagram profile on Sunday night to share a video of a recent charitable act.
The TV personality was filmed as she and an influencer surprised a former prisoner with a check and a trip to Disneyland.
Kim’s helper, motivator Zachery Dereniowski, approached a man named Jeremy and his son Micah who were sitting on a couch in a public place.
Zachery asked the pair if they had: “$3 for coffee,” to buy his boss, and the little boy handed over the funds.
After the father handed over the money, the TikTok star sat down to introduce himself and explain that his boss is actually Kim Kardashian.
The video creator added that he was joining the celebrity to talk about prison reform.
Zachery then asked if Jeremy knew anything about prison, and he replied that he spent six years behind bars.
The father of one explained that his brother was charged with mortgage fraud and he was also charged with conspiracy on the case.
Jeremy was given a 10-year sentence and at that time, his son Micah was born.
The father was able to shorten his sentence to six years but missed much of his son’s childhood.
Zachery handed the $3 back to Micah before asking if the father-son duo “liked surprises.”
At that moment, Kim Kardashian walked in the room wearing a black bodysuit, a long black trench coat, and thigh-high bubble gum pink heeled boots.
The Hulu star announced that she was paying $5,000 to Jeremy’s resтιтution today.
Zachery chimed in to tell Micah that he would be taking him and his dad to Disneyland for the day, as they’ve never been together.
As they walked toward the exit of the building, Kim and her ᴀssistant announced they had one more surprise for the duo, a brand new car.
The pair were overjoyed as they ran outside to enjoy their “first-ever Father’s Day” together.
Kim posed with Jeremy and Micah, smiling as she awarded them their resтιтution check.
She captioned the post: “Too often parents who owe resтιтution find themselves having to choose between their freedom and putting food on the table for their families.
“To learn more about how resтιтution and probation trap fathers in the system and to help bring real change text REFORM to 81411 and follow @reform.”
FAN CONTROVERSY
Despite Kim’s charitable act, many fans were not convinced the decision came from a good place.
Some took to Reddit to accuse the mother of four of trying to win back the spotlight from her sister Kourtney after the Lemme founder’s over-the-top pregnancy announcement that went viral over the weekend.
“Just Kim ruining Kourtney’s Parade!!!” one wrote, sharing a screensH๏τ of the video clip.
“Oh look at me the laW sTuDeNT, sOcIAL aCTivISt prIsOn rEFoRmeR, cHarITay GiVeR, MoM of FoUR, KanYes ViCtum, EntRepReNeUR, BiLLionAiRE, pROOdUceR, fasHUUN sTyLisT, bEauTY QuEEN, BiGG bUtt …look at me doing all this stuff whereas Kourtney is just having a baby! Big deal,” a second trolled.
“She’s just dipping her toes in the water. Everyone will want pics of Kourt and her growing bump. Kim won’t be pleased,” a third claimed.
“Trying to steal the spotlight for sure,” a fourth ᴀsserted, while a fifth slammed: “I’m gonna shame any celeb donating such a poor amount of money.
“Like how come this woman goes on vacations that can cost up to a million and then she claims to be ‘ohh so philanthropic, so caring’ and ‘only’ donates 5k.”
“Eh. This isn’t the first time she’s ‘donated.’ It didn’t really catch my eye,” another person said.
SISTER FEUD
The ongoing feud between Kim and Kourtney has been documented on the Hulu series, The Kardashians.
Fans believe the issues could escalate now that Kourtney has announced her fourth pregnancy, this time with her new husband Travis Barker.
