Kim Kardashian Accused Of ‘Tarnishing’ Brand Of Late Artist Donald Judd By Falsely Claiming To Own Some Of His Original Furniture Pieces

Beauty mogul Kim Kardashian was recently named in a legal complaint.

Reportedly, the billionaire is being accused of misleading consumers and damaging the brand of a renowned artist by falsely claiming to own some of his work, and is now being sued by his estate.

Reportedly, the estate of famed artist Donald Judd, known for his sculptures and uniquely designed pieces, alleges that Kim Kardashian falsely promoted some of the furniture in her SKKN office as Judd originals. They cited a video the entrepreneur shared back in 2022 where she made the claims while giving a tour of her workplace. Specifically, Kardashian boasted that a table and set of chairs she owned were crafted by the famous artist himself.

However, Judd’s estate denied in the suit that Kardashian’s pieces are authentic, though it’s noted that they aren’t certain whether or not the celebrity knew the pieces were phony. They claim the furniture actually came from the reality star’s go-to design company, Clements Design, who are also defendants in the lawsuit. Reportedly, Judd’s estate is seeking a court order to mandate that Kardashian remove her video, which they say has tarnished Judd’s reputation and legacy. They are also reportedly seeking profits from Clements Design.

While it has not been reported that Kardashian has responded to the suit publicly or in court, it appears the video of her office tour has since been removed from her YouTube channel. The lawsuit’s other defendant Clement Design released a statement about the complaint, claiming to have already attempted to resolve the matter privately with Judd’s estate. They wrote:
