Kim Kardashian will today confront the suspected 'grandpa gang' of Paris robbers who allegedly held her at gunpoint before stealing $10 million worth of her jewellery inside a luxury hotel in the French capital.

Kardashian, the American businesswoman and reality TV star, was tied-up, gagged and locked in a bathroom when she was targeted by thieves in 2016 while visiting Paris Fashion Week.

Speaking to media in Paris before her expected court appearance today, her lawyers said: 'She is committed to attending in person the trial and to confronting those who attacked her.'

A trial involving a notorious gang of criminals, dubbed the 'grandpa gang' as most are now in their 60s and 70s, accused of carrying out the terrifying robbery opened last month.
