Kim Kardashian has revealed the unthinkable by saying she'd happily give up reality TV to become a full-time lawyer.
Yep, it turns out one of the OGs of reality television would be prepared to wave goodbye to her glamorous on-screen life in return for a life of serving justice.
As all fans of The Kardashians will know, Kim started her legal journey back in 2019, when she embarked upon a four-year law apprenticeship in a bid to follow in the footsteps of her late father, Robert Kardashian, and train to become a lawyer.
This came after Kim began fighting for the clemency of Alice Marie Johnson, who had been in prison since 1996 after being convicted for helping facilitate communications in a drug trafficking case.

It wasn't until December 2021 when Kim finally passed the notoriously difficult baby bar exam - on her fourth attempt - with her writing on Instagram: "I failed this exam 3 times in 2 years, but I got back up each time and studied harder and tried again until I did it!!!"
The 42-year-old added: "I know my dad would be so proud and he would actually be so shocked to know that this is my path now but he would have been my best study partner."
Throughout her studies and since passing the baby bar, the SKIMS founder has continued to advocate for wrongly convicted inmates - including asking for the temporary release of a jailed father whose daughter was killed in the recent school shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

Of course, Kim has been doing all this while juggling being a mum of four, filming for her reality shows and running her multiple business ventures - but will she ever drop everything to become a lawyer full-time?
Well, she recently told TIME magazine that she'd 'happily' become an attorney full-time.
The star sat down at the TIME100 Summit on Tuesday (25 April) and got candid about her plans for her career in law, saying: "I would be just as happy being an attorney full time."
She then added: "The journey just really opened up my eyes so much. It gets overwhelming because there's so much to be done.

"I brought my sister Khloé [Kardashian] to a prison for the first time last week, and that was really eye-opening for her.
"I always joke with my mom — who's my manager — I say Kim K is retiring, and I'm just going to be an attorney."
So, there you have it!
Although fans needn't worry yet as the third season of Disney+'s The Kardashians is set to drop next month, so I doubt Kim will be leaving our screens any time soon.
