Kim Kardashian on the lookout for a body double after Paris ordeal

Los Angeles - Kim Kardashian West is looking for a body double.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star was subject to a terrible ordeal in Paris, France, earlier this week when five armed, masked men stormed into her apartment, tied her up with plastic handcuffs, and duct tape, and stole more than $10m worth of jewellery.

Now, the 35-year-old beauty is on the lookout for a body double to help confuse any would-be assailants.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "There's a circus that follows Kim's every move. Her new security team is recommending she employ a body double to help confuse would-be assailants."

But Kim has other worries on her mind, as another source claims she is most concerned about the possibility of her two children, daughter North, three, and 10-month-old Saint, being "kidnapped".

The source said: "The kids being kidnapped is Kim's biggest fear. She previously didn't want to shell out for armed security, but now she realises the family needs 24-hour protection."

And for Kim - who is married to music mogul Kanye West - the problems don't stop there, as she is also finding it difficult to know who to trust, amid speculation that the robbery may have been an inside job.

A third source told the publication: "She doesn't know who she can trust. Kim's team is conducting an internal investigation - interviewing assistants and looking through phones for evidence that anyone may have communicated with the thieves. They are slowly ruling people out."
