Reality television royalty Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton have publicly buried the hatchet, posing together at a festive holiday gathering over the weekend. The duo, whose friendship has weathered significant public storms, appeared to be on the best of terms as they shared stunning snaps from the event.
A Tumultuous Friendship History
The pair have known each other since childhood, with their bond famously forming when a young Kim Kardashian ran a closet organising business and counted Hilton as a client. This connection led to Kim's early appearances on Hilton's hit show, The Simple Life, marking the beginning of her own rise to fame.
However, their relationship hit a notorious low point in 2008. Paris Hilton shockingly described Kim's famous posterior as looking like "cottage cheese inside a big trash bag." The cruel slur caused a major fracture, and despite a formal apology from Hilton, the damage was profound. By 2011, Kim confirmed they had grown apart, stating they didn't really talk anymore.
The Glamorous Christmas Reunion
Fast forward to the present, and the iconic friends have clearly reconciled. At the weekend's holiday party, Kim Kardashian, 45, stunned in a daring black ensemble that flashed her bra, while 44-year-old hotel heiress Paris Hilton embodied festive spirit in a red velvet mini-dress.
Kim shared the photos on social media with a simple black heart, to which Paris commented "The best," solidifying their renewed camaraderie. This is not their first reunion since making up in 2014, but it continues to spark nostalgia among their fans.
Mutual Respect and Moving Forward
In recent years, both women have spoken fondly of their shared history. Paris Hilton proudly stated they had always been friends since they were little girls, adding she was proud of Kim's accomplishments. For her part, Kim has openly acknowledged Hilton's role in her career, admitting "She literally gave me a career, and I totally acknowledge that."
Following the festive party, Kim was spotted in a bold red latex outfit while chaperoning her daughter, North West, and friends for dinner at Nobu Malibu. The restaurant is a favourite of her ex-husband, Kanye West, whose current wife, Bianca Censori, recently wore a similarly coloured catsuit.
