Celebrities are rallying around Kim Kardashian after she was robbed at gunpoint in her Paris apartment on Sunday night.
Piers Morgan has spoken out in support of the 35-year-old reality TV star, while James Corden and Chrissy Teigen have blasted internet trolls who have been posting negative tweets about Kim since the incident took place.
Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan expressed his sympathy for Kim by tweeting, "Feel very sorry for KimKardashian. Must have been a terrifying experience."
TV presenter Corden had a more direct message for those who had been verbally abusing Kim on Twitter. "People making jokes about Kim Kardashian tonight would do well to remember that she's a mother, a daughter, a wife, a friend," he wrote. "Be nice or shut up."
However, it was Kim's close friend Chrissy Teigen who had the most to say. The 30-year-old model and wife of John Legend posted a series of tweets attacking those who "naturally hate celebrities."
Kim is currently staying in the French capital for Paris Fashion Week. Police confirmed jewellery worth several million euros was stolen during the armed robbery and a spokesperson for the star said she was not harmed.
"Kim Kardashian West was held up at gunpoint inside her Paris hotel room this evening, by two armed masked men dressed as police officers," her representative told E! News. "She is badly shaken but physically unharmed."
Kim's husband Kanye West, who was performing at the Meadows Festival in New York when he was told about the incident, stopped the concert early.
"Due to an emergency, Kanye West had to end his performance early," a statement from Kanye's representative said. "Please get home safely."
