Kim Kardashian is on the verge of achieving her long-time goal of becoming a lawyer.
During her appearance on The Graham Norton Show on Friday, Oct. 24, the SKIMS founder, 45, shared that she’ll soon receive the results of her bar exam officially marking a major step in her legal career.
“I have a few projects coming up — I film my first movie in January, and we are hoping for a season 2 of All’s Fair,” Kardashian said. “I always want to be growing, curious and evolving, and I want to see wherever that takes me.”
She continued, “I will be qualified in two weeks. I hope to practice law. Maybe in 10 years, I think I’ll give up being Kim K and be a trial lawyer. That’s what I really want.”
Kardashian appeared on the talk show alongside her All’s Fair costar Sarah Paulson, where she discussed balancing her growing acting career, business ventures, and legal ambitions.
The update follows Kardashian’s graduation from a Law Office Study Program on May 21, which she completed over six years instead of four due to the pandemic and her work schedule. According to her mentor Jessica Jackson, the reality star dedicated 18 hours a week, 48 weeks a year for six straight years totaling more than 5,000 hours of legal study while raising four children and managing her global brand.
“Over the course of this program, Kim has dedicated 18 hours a week, 48 weeks a year for six straight years,” Jackson said. “That’s a total of 5,184 hours of legal study, that’s time she carved out while raising four children, running businesses, filming television shows and showing up in courtrooms to advocate for others.”
Kardashian shares four children North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, with her ex-husband, Kanye “Ye” West.
Despite not holding a college degree, Kardashian began her legal apprenticeship in 2018 under California’s unique “reading the law” system. She passed the “baby bar” exam in 2021 and completed the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE) earlier this year, a key requirement to practice law in the state.
Her acting career is also taking off with the legal drama All’s Fair, marking one of her first major scripted roles. When asked about balancing filming with her other commitments, Kardashian admitted, “It was mentally challenging having to do it all, but I loved it.”
Paulson praised her costar’s dedication, saying, “The truth of the matter is that she made me feel like a slacker. She’s running a business, she’s looking after four children, she’s studying for the law. She really is an impressive person.”
The Graham Norton Show airs on BBC One and iPlayer on Friday, Oct. 24, at 10:40 p.m. BST.
