Kim Kardashian Survived Robbery For Saint & North: They Were Her ‘Source Of Strength’

Kim Kardashian lived through a terrifying robbery in Paris on Oct. 3 against all odds, and HollywoodLife.com has learned that the reality star had an excellent source of motivation to stay alive: her children, North and Saint West. Get the heartbreaking details right here!

Kim Kardashian, 35, was fortunately left physically unharmed by the group of criminals who ransacked her luxurious Paris apartment during what was supposed to be an enjoyable Fashion Week, and HollywoodLife.com hears that Kim was able to stay strong for one main reason: her kids. “Her entire life literally flashed before her eyes — her father, mother, childhood, sisters and then her own kids — as she burst into tears during the incident,” a source tells us EXCLUSIVELY.

“Her focus quickly was locked in on her children as her motherly instinct took over,” the insider adds about North, 3, and Saint, 9 months, who were safe back home in America.

The source says that though Kim was bound and gagged in the bathtub as a gun was held to her head, “she knew she had to be tough and survive for the sake of her children”, and her kids became her only focus and her source of strength during the the most challenging night of her life. In short, her will to live was defined by her love for her children, and we have to applaud Kim for that.

As we previously told you, when Kim reunites with the kids, she’s going to have to tell them what went down so that the family can move on. “Even three-year-olds need to know that [their parents] are safe. Both Kim and Kanye can sit with their daughter and reassure her that everything will be okay,” Psychologist & Family Therapist Dr. Jennifer Rhodes told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. We don’t doubt that Kim is strong enough to inform North in an appropriate manner!

HollywoodLifers, are you proud of Kim for using her kids as a source of strength during the awful Paris robbery?
