Kim rushes back to LA after Kanye’s medical emergency
Kim Kardashian was flying to New York for a celebrity gala honoring her late father, Robert Kardashian — but turned around and flew back to LA after learning her husband, Kanye West, was suffering a medical emergency and was hospitalized.
On Monday, Kim had boarded a private jet for her first public appearance following her traumatic Paris robbery. She was scheduled to appear at The Angel Ball, hosted by Denise Rich, along with her mother, Kris Jenner, and sisters Khloe and Kourtney at Cipriani Wall Street. Monday night’s black-tie gala was honoring Robert Kardashian, the famed attorney who died of cancer in 2003.
But sources said Kim had landed in New York when she learned that Kanye was suffering some kind of medical emergency. Police were sent to him to perform a “welfare check” and officers called paramedics, who transported Kanye to a hospital.
A source told Page Six, “Kim was seen boarding a private jet to New York at around 5 a.m. LA time and had planned to make a late entrance to the gala, skipping the red carpet, to honor her father.
“But when she landed in New York, something was very wrong with Kanye, she turned around and headed straight back to LA to be at his side.”
Kris, Kourtney and Khloe still appeared at the glamorous New York event, and while declining interviews, they continued to film for their reality show.
