Kim Kardashian West is looking for a double to confuse future assailants

Kim Kardashian is on the lookout for a body double to help confuse any would-be assailants.

The celebrity went through a terrible ordeal earlier this week in Paris, when she was handcuffed and locked in the bathroom by masked men, who to stole more than $10 million worth of jewellery.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "There’s a circus that follows Kim’s every move. Her new security team is recommending she employ a body double to help confuse would-be assailants."

And Kim is not only worried about this. Another source claims the ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star is concerned about t the possibility of her two children, daughter North, three, and 10-month-old Saint, being "kidnapped".

The source said: "The kids being kidnapped is Kim’s biggest fear. She previously didn’t want to shell out for armed security, but now she realises the family needs 24-hour protection."

Meanwhile, Kim’s team is said to be conducting an internal investigation -interviewing assistants and looking through phones for evidence that anyone may have communicated with the thieves. They are slowly ruling people out, but Kim and her husband Kanye don’t know right now who they can trust.

A source said previously: "French police suspect that the five alleged robbers had some contact with her security and were tipped off about her procedures.

"They knew there was no security [with her inside her apartment that night]. All they had to do was go in, make contact with someone inside the hotel."
