Kim Kardashian was 'mortified' to discover that her son Saint had been sent a joke about her sex tape.
Kardashian, the billionaire founder of shape-wear brand Skims, had thought the notorious sex tape she shot with her ex-boyfriend Ray J in 2002 was a fading memory.
But this was jeopardised when her six-year-old child, who she shares with Kanye West, was innocently playing on the online video game platform Roblox.
Saint is one of the 200 million monthly users who the platform to play mini-games together and chat to each other.

But during an episode of Kim's revived show The Kardashians, Saint was messaged something 'super inappropriate' by an online character. The joke sent to Saint's iPad hinted at 'unreleased footage' from the sex tape, alongside a photo of Kim's crying face.
This distressed Kim, who commented: "The last thing I want as a mum is for my past to be brought up 20 years later."
She added: "It’s real embarrassing s**t. I need to deal with it, and will deal with it."
Kardashian, 41, was then filmed calling her attorney and assuring them that she is '99.9 percent sure no other tape exists.'
Later footage showed Kim called Kanye West in tears, saying: "I almost died when Saint thought it was funny."
Happily, Saint's innocence saved him from a difficult conversation since he was not able to understand the joke he was sent.
Kim said that she 'would’ve died inside' if her 'son was a little bit older and old enough to read'.
The Los Angeles local has previously spoken about how much she 'dreads' one of her children coming across the video and says that she 'can’t go through this again.'
Kim and Kanye have three other children in addition to Saint: North, 8, Chicago, 4, and Psalm, 2. The couple filed for divorce in February 2021, after seven years of marriage.
On The Kardashians, Kim speaks candidly about the struggles of coparenting.
She said: “We’re just trying to figure it out – how to be good parents to our kids together, how to be good friends to each other. Ultimate goal, no matter what, is just happiness."
It would seem that Kim Kardashian has managed to move on after she was seen holding hands with Pete Davidson at the premiere for her new Hulu series.
The reality TV star attended the red carpet event with the 28-year-old comedian.
It marked the first time the couple have attended a public event together - though Kardashian admitted it wasn't a decision she had taken lightly.
Kardashian became 'legally single' in March 2022 and is believed to have been dating Davidson since October 2021.
