Kim Kardashian West is reportedly planning to meet with President Donald Trump to discuss her quest to free great-grandmother Alice Marie Johnson from prison.
The ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star has been trying to find a way to get Alice – who was sentenced to life in prison without parole in 1997 on money laundering and drug conspiracy charges – released from behind bars since last year with the help her of her lawyer Shawn Holley and now she’s hoping to get the president on board.
A source has told TMZ that the 37-year-old reality TV star and her legal advisor have booked in a meeting with Trump on Wednesday (30.05.18) to lobby for a pardon for Alice, who is currently being held at Aliceville Correctional Facility in Alabama.
Kim did initially support Trump’s rival Hillary Clinton in the election but it’s believed the politician may be willing to help because his daughter Ivanka Trump is involved.
Kim’s husband Kanye West – with whom she has children North, four, Saint, two, and Chicago, four months – has also been supporting Trump over the past few months.
Although it’s a big move for Kim, it’s believed the reality TV star will leave the cameras outside for her family’s E! show and face the president alone.
Alice’s case became international news last year when Kim tweeted about it.
