text: As you may have read, yesterday was Kate Middleton's dirty 30 birthday. And as you may have wondered, what does one get for the woman who has everything, including the (future) Queen of England's crown? If you're Kim Kardashian, you get her shoes! But not just any pair of shoes -- a pair of shoes you and the company you're affiliated with designed. 
   
   In honor of Duchess Catherine's birthday, Kim and Shoe Dazzle presented her -- and everyone else in the world -- with The Duchess, a black leather quilted platform pump that the actual Duchess wouldn't be caught dead in. Sweet gesture, though, Kim! 
   
   Now, to be clear, I don't think the shoe is actually intended for Kate -- like, I don't think Kim's people wrapped a pair up and sent it off to Kensington Palace. I think it's more of an homage to Catherine and her royal style -- oh, and a ploy to garner publicity and cash for the company. But still, doesn't explain why they're so not something she would ever wear.

   As Kim explains in the video below, she feels that the shoe's "classic quilting and graceful silhouette channels the Duchess’s classic style." I say it channels Payless. Not that anything is wrong with Payless! I have plenty of Payless shoes, pro-Payless folks! But, I don't think the Duchess does. 
   
   Either way, it was a nice, albeit self-promoting, gesture on Kim's behalf. And although I don't think Kate Middleton will ever be seen on the red carpet sporting these bad boys, I'm sure she appreciates it. That is, if she even knows about it at all.

   Khloe is not a Kardashian! 
   
   Robert Kardashian‘s ex-wife and widow have come forward in a Star magazine exclusive in which they both claim that the late Kardashian expressed his doubts about the paternity of Khloe. 
   
   “Khloe is not his kid — he told me that after we got married,” Jan Ashley, 63, the woman who married Robert after Kris Jenner, revealed to Star.

   “He just kind of looked at me and said [it] like it was a matter of fact. He said, ‘Well, you know that Khloe’s not really a Kardashian, don’t you?’ And I said…’OK,’ and that was it.” 
   
   Ellen Kardashian, 63, married Robert in 2003 just two months before his death, after dating for nearly six years — and she has also come forward after eight years of silence to “tell the truth” about the Kardashian family. 
   
   “Khloe brought it up all the time,” Ellen told Star. “She looked nothing like the rest. She was tall, had a different shape, light hair, curly hair. Didn’t look anything like the other three children.”

   And while Kris recently admitted in her new book that she cheated on Robert during their marriage, both Jan and Ellen said they’ve always known she cheated, and so did Robert. 
   
   “Robert did question the fact that Khloe was his,” Ellen said. “Any normal man would if they knew their wife had cheated on him.” 
   
   Since Robert’s death in 2003, Ellen fell on hard financial times — filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2010 and last October the home that she and Robert shared in Indian Wells, Calif. was sold after going into foreclosure.

   But in a final bombshell, Ellen claims Robert told her that he and Kris weren’t even sleeping together at the time Khloe was conceived. 
   
   “[But] he never would have considered a DNA test,” Ellen concluded. “He loved her very much.”

   The Kardashian women are famous for their extravagant red carpet outfits, expensive jewelry and global fashion collections, but it’s not just the female members of the reality TV family that love to dress up, as Star magazine can exclusively reveal. 
   
   Robert Kardashian’s former wife, Ellen, claims that Bruce Jenner, 62, has a secret fetish for wearing women’s clothing, shoes and lingerie, according to the new issue of Star. 
   
   Ellen learned of the bombshell over drinks with Bruce’s ex, Chrystie, who spilled the beans on his cross-dressing alter ego.

   “’Of course Bruce was every woman’s heartthrob when he was that age, right?’” Ellen says she asked. “But Chrystie said, ‘Yeah, until I went on a trip and I came back and he had gone through all my clothes. And I found my bras… He’d clip them together and wear them.’ 
   
   “I couldn’t live with that,” she confessed. 
   
   Chrystie went on to divorce Bruce, but his next wife, Kris Jenner, was unfazed by her husband’s odd taste, and Ellen tells Star that he continued to cross-dress for years after their wedding.

   But her daughters weren’t as accepting about finding size 13 heels in their mom’s closet! 
   
   “Khloe called her dad and she was very upset, crying and screaming about it,” revealed Ellen. 
   
   The full story can be read in the new issue of Star magazine — on newsstands Thursday.

   During the very brief time Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian were married, the couple argued about the way the E! reality star spoke to her family, which was often in a very disrespectful and belittling manner, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting. 
   
   One of the things that attracted Humphries to Kim, was how close she was to her own family, as Kris comes from a very small, close knit family. However, the similarities ended there, as Kim would speak to her momager, Kris Jenner, and siblings, Khloe, Kourtney, and Robert in terms that made Humprhies bristle.

   “Kris just couldn’t believe that Kim would speak to her mom with such disrespect, often telling her she had no idea what she was doing, as pertaining to Kris’ management of her career,” a source close to the situation tells RadarOnline.com. “On one recent episode of Kourtney and Kim Take New York, Kim called Khloe an ‘ugly little troll’ because she was woken up by her sister, earlier one morning than she liked. 
   
   “Kris would NEVER even joke with his parents, nor his sister, Kaela that way. He just wasn’t raised that way. Kris tried to approach the subject gingerly with Kim, saying there were other ways to communicate her frustration and anger, rather than using such ugly language, Kim responded by telling him that it was none of his business.”

   During the recent episode of Kourtney & Kim Take New York, Kim confided to her mom that she was unhappy in her marriage to Humphries during a business trip to Dubai, that took place just weeks after the wedding. Kim didn’t want Humphries to go with her on the trip, even though he said on camera that he wanted to go. 
   
   “There’s something in my relationship that I feel isn’t right,” Kim told her mother in Dubai, as the two headed to the airport to go back to the U.S. “And married life isn’t what I thought it would be with him: I keep thinking something is off.”

   As their marriage quickly deteriorated, the arguing only intensified. “Kim got angry at her mom on the phone while they were in New York because of a photo shoot that she had to go to, that she didn’t want to do. Humphries was in the room, and told Kim to stop, and that she had diarrhea of the mouth. Kim quickly turned her anger towards her husband and hung up on her mom, which happens all the time,” the insider says.

target: – Kate Middleton turned 30 on Monday, so of course Kim Kardashian got her a present. If by "got her a present," you mean "designed an unfortunate-looking pair of shoes and then named it 'The Duchess' in an effort to pump up sales." Glamour points to a video of Kardashian presenting the quilted heels to Kate, and at least one blogger agrees with us that the shoes' namesake "wouldn't be caught dead" wearing them. In other Kardashian news: Rumors have long swirled that Khloe, aka the least offensive Kardashian, is not actually a Kardashian. Today, Robert Kardashian's ex-wife and widow come together to tell the world that, yes, those rumors are true. Of course, the whole thing goes down in a Star interview. "Khloe is not his kid—he told me that after we got married," says one. The other adds that Robert Kardashian and Kris Jenner weren't sleeping together when Khloe was conceived, and that Jenner cheated. In the same interview, one of the ladies also claims that Kris' new husband, Bruce Jenner, likes to wear women's clothing, a weird fact she apparently knows because she once had drinks with Bruce's ex. And finally, Kris Humphries—remember him?—was apparently not happy with the fact that his then-wife Kim often spoke to her family disrespectfully, sources tell Radar.
