Kourtney Kardashian recently poked fun at her sister Kim Kardashian’s infamous diamond earring meltdown that occurred during a family trip to Bora Bora. In a recent post on social media while on vacation with Kim and Khloe in Turks and Caicos, Kourtney referenced the iconic moment from “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” when Kim lost a $75,000 diamond earring in the ocean after her then-boyfriend Kris Humphries playfully threw her into the water. Despite the dramatic reaction captured on the show, Kourtney made light of the situation with a humorous caption alongside a photo of herself in a bikini.
In the Season 6 episode of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” Kim can be seen frantically searching for her lost diamond earring in the ocean, causing her to break down in tears. While the moment became one of the most memorable scenes from the reality show, Kim herself has expressed tiredness at the ongoing jokes about the incident. In a 2023 GQ video, she mentioned how people continue to reference the lost earring whenever she is near water. However, Kim revealed that her sister Kylie Jenner was the one who actually found and retrieved the earring during their time in Bora Bora, showcasing the clear water in the ocean where it was lost.
Despite Kim’s attempts to move on from the incident, her family members, including Kourtney and Kris Jenner, continue to playfully bring up the diamond earring meltdown. In response to Kourtney’s recent post making fun of the moment, Kris commented on the post with the same line Kourtney used on the show, humorously highlighting the absurdity of the situation. Kim, on the other hand, has made it clear that she is over the constant reminders of the lost earring and would prefer to leave that memory in the past. Her efforts to move on from the incident are evident in her responses to fans who continue to make references to the iconic moment.
Despite the ongoing jokes and references to Kim Kardashian’s lost diamond earring incident, she remains unfazed and determined to move forward from the situation. The comedic element of the moment has become a part of Kardashian family lore and continues to be brought up by family members and fans alike. However, with Kim’s own desire to distance herself from the memory, it is evident that she is ready to leave the earring incident behind and focus on other aspects of her life and career. As one of the most iconic moments in the history of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” the diamond earring meltdown will likely always be a part of pop culture history, whether Kim likes it or not.
