Kim Kardashian Held In Africa After Losing Passport

America temporarily lost one of its biggest reality stars – but thankfully, Kim Kardashian found her passport and can travel once again!

Kim misplaced her passport on Tuesday after traveling from Botswana to Johannesburg, South Africa, Access Hollywood has confirmed.

“They wouldn’t let me out of the customs line,” Kim told People. “I left my passport on the plane!”

Kim, NFL star boyfriend Reggie Bush and sister Khloe were en route from a diamond mining trip in Botswana for the Russell Simmons Diamond Empowerment Fund when the travel snafu occurred.

“They claimed they looked for it but I had a feeling they didn’t,” she told the mag. “They called the embassy and said I would have had to sleep at the hotel airport.”

Not wanting their trip to be sidelined, boyfriend Reggie persuaded the airport staff to allow him to look for Kim’s misplaced travel documents.

“Reggie begged to go check for the passport himself … and he found it!” she explained. “He saved the day!”

Kim told the mag she hopes her trip sheds light on how the diamond industry is helping the people of Africa.

“We want to educate people how the diamond industry has helped so much in contrast to what people believe,” she added.
