Ongoing renovations to the home include the construction of a new wing, Realtor.com reported last year, citing aerial photos of the property.

Forbes estimates Kardashian is worth $1.9 billion as of Monday, making her the No. 2,237 wealthiest person in the world. The majority of Kardashian's wealth comes from her shapewear company, Skims, which is worth an estimated $5 billion. She ranked 25th on Forbes’ 2026 list of America’s wealthiest self-made women. Kardashian rose to fame in the 2000s as a reality television star on “Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” and she currently stars in “The Kardashians” on Hulu.

key background

Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint in Paris in 2016 while attending Paris Fashion Week. The robbers allegedly stole more than $9 million in jewelry as they bound Kardashian with zip ties. Kardashian testified in a Paris court last year as some of the alleged robbers stood trial, telling the court she thought she “was going to die.” Kardashian said during her testimony she changed her security practices after the incident and now staffs four to six guards at her home during the night. The court found eight of 10 defendants guilty in carrying out the robbery, after which Kardashian said she was “deeply grateful to the French authorities for pursuing justice in this case.”
