Kim Kardashian may be weeks away from finding out if she’s passed her law exams, but she says practising divorce law is not in her future.
The 45-year-old, who plays divorce attorney Allura Grant in the Disney+ upcoming legal drama All’s Fair, tells the BBC she’s “more into criminal justice and reform work” and adds, “I don’t think I can ever really do family law”.
Kardashian has been studying to become a lawyer for the last six years, undertaking an apprenticeship that negates the need for a university degree.
“It was the wildest idea that I was going to law school – but to me it all makes sense and I hope that I’m forever curious and always want to try new things,” she says.
Kardashian, who has four children with ex-husband Kanye West, also runs fashion and shapewear brand SKIMS and appears in the reality series The Kardashians with her family.
Her interest in criminal justice has been documented on her reality TV shows, where she has advocated for prison reform in the US and sentence reduction for first-time offenders.
Not content with her already packed-out schedule, her recent pivot to acting has raised eyebrows – but it hasn’t dented Kardashian’s ambition.
“I guess I just don’t live in those expectation boxes,” she says.
She says she “loves taking on constructive criticism” but doesn’t understand why people think she “can’t do something that you want to do or are curious or want to learn about”.
