Kim Kardashian’s Six-Year Legal Marathon: Why It Really Counts

Here’s the latest obsession from Hollywood’s favorite student: law school trophies trumping runway appearances. Kim Kardashian just announced that her unconventional six-year legal journey finally crossed the finish line, and yes, she made it sound almost as glamorous as a Paris Fashion Week afterparty. In that time, she managed to juggle baby bars, reality cameras, and the occasional Met Gala dress—because who doesn’t love a side of legal briefs with their couture?
Kim confessed this week on Instagram that her plan to breeze through the California law apprenticeship “took longer than planned,” clocking nearly six years of study, reading, and more flashcards than a Vegas magic show has rabbits. Honestly, it’s hard to tell whether she’s more proud of reviewing landmark cases or of the fact that “took longer than planned” is something most of us could only dream of saying about our gym memberships. She pointed out that she’s officially wrapped up all required hours, and because it’s Kim, she made sure to remind followers that “it’s totally worth it.” Feeling motivated yet or just wondering when your next side hustle is a televised court proceeding?
In her celebratory post, Kim tagged her mom, Kris Jenner, and her entire squad—because nothing says “legal victory” quite like a Kardashian family cameo. She also dropped motivational one-liners about celebrating wins big and small, which is convenient advice if you count getting through traffic as a life milestone. Her Instagram caption read more like a TED Talk cliffhanger, promising that the real party starts when she tackles the bar exam. Side note: if motivational quotes had a red carpet moment, this was it.
Through this saga, Kim has proven that perseverance isn’t reserved for the underdog—it’s just more fun when you’re in designer pumps. She’s halfway between studying case law and starring in a spin-off series titled, “Keeping Up with the Legal Briefs.” Meanwhile, fans are left wondering whether she’ll argue Roe v. Wade or simply call it “another day at the office.” Spoiler alert: she’ll probably do both with perfect contour and zero sweat stains.
Next up, she’s gearing up for the written bar exam, which, if history is any indicator, will involve more highlighters than a Vogue editorial meeting. After four successful baby bar exams and a family cheering section louder than a Super Bowl halftime show, there’s little doubt she’ll be a lawyer by, say, next Thursday—give or take another year. So, what’s the verdict? Kim’s legal triumph is as real as her empire—and infinitely more educational. Well, there you have it: legal aspirations, celebrity style, and humanity at its finest. Tune in next time for more courtroom drama and red-carpet candidacies.
