  • Kim Kardashian received symbolic damages from thieves convicted over her 2016 Paris hotel robbery.
  • €1 ($1.15) was awarded to Kardashian in the civil damages case.
  • Seven others were convicted in May 2025 for crimes linked to the heist.

Kim Kardashian received a symbolic €1 ($1.15) award in a civil damages case against some of the people convicted over the 2016 Paris hotel robbery. The attackers tied her up at gunpoint, stole jewels including her $4 million engagement ring, and were disguised as police officers while wearing ski masks. The heist was France’s largest in 20 years at the time, and most of the jewelry was never recovered, including the ring given to Kardashian by her then-husband, rapper Kanye West, now known as Ye. The hotel receptionist, another plaintiff, was awarded about €110,000 after seeking €500,000. In court in 2025, Kardashian told Aomar Ait Khedache, the robbery’s mastermind, that she forgave him but that the forgiveness did not remove her trauma. Khedache was jailed for three years, while seven others were convicted for crimes linked to the heist.
