When the Hollywood elites were celebrating the ‘wedding of the century’ of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez in Italy, Kim Kardashian, who was on the guest list, had to deal with a man suing her for mistakenly posting his photo on social media.
Kim Kardashian is getting sued…
According to US Weekly, the court documents filed by Kim K and her legal team claim that Ivan Cantu has no standing. The 44-year-old reality star signed the paperwork on June 26, which was a day prior to the ‘Here comes the Bride!’ moment. Last year, Kardashian, in all good faith, used her social media to raise awareness in an attempt to help a man from Texas, who was convicted of murder in 2001 and was sentenced to death. Similar to the man who is suing Kim right now, the convicted fellow’s name was Ivan Cantu as well.
Kim Kardashian’s lawyer said…
Kardashian’s lawyer said, “[Kim] played an important role in advocating for Mr. Cantu. Over the course of approximately ten days in February 2024, [Kim] and her team posted a series of ‘stories’ regarding Mr. Cantu — approximately 16 in all — on [Kim’s] Instagram account. Of these 16 stories, one story posted two days before Mr. Cantu’s execution mistakenly used an image of the plaintiff in this action, a New York-based project manager whose name is also Ivan Cantu.”Ivan Cantu proclaimed that because of Kim Kardashian, he has suffered PTSD, sleepless nights and emotional distress due to her posting. Whereas, the socialite argues that his claims have simply no merit. “The mistake was discovered within hours of the posting, and the story was immediately deleted, with [Kim] swiftly issuing a public apology to [Ivan],” the lawyer continued, adding that the lawsuit is an attempt to cash the mistake. The case is still ongoing.
