Reality television personality and entrepreneur Kim Kardashian, aged 45, appeared to momentarily struggle with her footing while traversing the cobblestone streets of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on Tuesday, owing to the height of her black platform stilettos.
Photographs captured Kardashian holding onto a security guard for support as she carefully navigated the uneven terrain. The SKIMS founder was attired in a plunging red, floor-length gown that accentuated her signature silhouette but further complicated her mobility. Her ensemble was complemented by a chunky silver necklace, a sleek bun hairstyle crafted from her dark tresses, and understated makeup emphasizing her natural features.
Later in the evening, Kardashian joined her All’s Fair co-stars — Naomi Watts, Sarah Paulson, and Niecy Nash — on the balcony of Rio’s Copacabana Palace Hotel during promotional activities for their forthcoming Hulu series.
The appearance followed public scrutiny over Kardashian’s recent deletion of photographs featuring herself with Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, and Prince Harry, which were originally taken during her mother Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday celebration.
The now-removed images reportedly depicted Kardashian and Markle smiling together, with the Duke of Sussex visible conversing in the background, and additional shots showing Markle interacting with Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings and Kris Jenner.
The deletions sparked widespread online speculation, with social media users questioning the motive behind the removal, noting that paparazzi had already photographed the Duke and Duchess arriving at the high-profile event, hosted at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s $165 million Beverly Hills estate.
The Gatsby-themed celebration drew an extensive guest list, including Beyoncé, Justin Bieber, Oprah Winfrey, Adele, Paris Hilton, Snoop Dogg, and Gayle King. Jenner herself was photographed dancing with Bieber and posing with Beyoncé, wearing a tiered red gown and long black gloves befitting the theme.
Kardashian, who has been promoting All’s Fair in Brazil, later shared a new series of images on her Instagram, showcasing a white backless feather-trimmed gown worn at the series premiere, along with behind-the-scenes photos of her hair and makeup preparations and additional portraits taken with her co-stars.#newsafro_
