Kim Kardashian News: Socialite Afraid of Losing Attention, Source Says

Kim Kardashian is now under the belief that her decision to shy away from the cameras since the birth of her daughter in June has backfired, RadarOnline reported Thursday.

The reality TV star has shied away from the limelight since North West, her daughter with rapper Kanye West, was born in June. However, sources believe that Kardashian's star power has slipped in her absence from view. She had wanted to show off her new figure but apparently now has second thoughts.

"Kim has had this plan to show off her great she looks after giving birth and selling the pictures or videos for a lot of money, but she's getting worried that it's been too long and people aren't as excited about seeing her anymore," the source said.

The source added that Kardashian has noted a shift in her fanbase; previously, they would wait for any bit of information, but the insider said that the 32-year-old was worried that their interest in her had waned.

Kate Middleton welcoming Prince George in July also eclipsed Kardashian and added to her alleged frustration.

"After all the excitement the whole world had for Kate Middleton's royal baby Kim had hoped that people would care about her that much, but now she's freaking out that they're not," the source said.
