Kim Kardashian is once again making headlines after reports claimed she may be postponing her next California Bar Exam attempt. The discussion intensified after Megyn Kelly reacted to the reports with blunt criticism during a recent episode of her show. Kardashian has spent years documenting her nontraditional journey into law, but insiders now allege her demanding workload has forced her to slow things down.
Megyn Kelly criticized Kim Kardashian’s alleged postponement of bar exam
Megyn Kelly did not hold back while reacting to reports surrounding Kim Kardashian’s alleged decision to pause her bar exam plans. During a recent episode of “The Megyn Kelly Show,” the host claimed Kardashian was “no longer going to be pursuing the bar exam” after reportedly failing her previous attempt. Kelly also referenced Kardashian’s past struggles with California’s “baby bar” exam, which she previously failed multiple times before finally passing in 2021.
“She tried to take the baby bar exam,” Kelly said during the discussion, before criticizing Kardashian’s legal ambitions even further. The broadcaster argued that the bar exam is designed to filter out those unfit for legal practice and added, “Leave the lawyering to the smart people.”
The comments followed a TMZ report claiming Kardashian chose to skip this year’s February bar exam and allegedly does not plan to sit for the July session either. Reportedly, Kardashian’s demanding schedule influenced the decision. An insider told Page Six the SKIMS founder has been balancing multiple filming and production projects while also raising her children and managing several businesses.
Not only that, sources close to Kardashian reportedly pushed back against the idea that she has abandoned her legal goals. One insider told the outlet that she has “no plan on giving up on her dreams,” but allegedly wants to approach the exam only when she feels fully prepared and confident. Another source noted that the intense public scrutiny surrounding her legal journey added extra pressure to an already difficult process.
Kardashian first announced her decision to study law in 2019, explaining that her interest had grown through her criminal justice reform work. Since then, she has frequently shared updates about the challenges of balancing legal studies with her public career.
