AceShowbiz - Kim Kardashian is facing a lawsuit over a snap of herself and her husband Kanye West that she shared on Instagram.
The reality TV star posted the black-and-white photo of the couple smiling at one another on her social media channel back in October, 2018, but professional photographer Saeed Bolden is now claiming he took the loved-up snap and therefore owns it.
According to the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Bolden says he never gave the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star permission to use the photograph, nor did she pay him to use it, and he's therefore seeking compensation.
Bolden reportedly doesn't name a price in the papers, but he's suing for any profits Kim's made off the post, plus punitive damages.
In addition to naming Kim in the lawsuit, he's also suing her shapewear line Skims, because he claims it shares Kim's account on the platform.
The mum-of-four has yet to respond to the lawsuit.
