Kim Kardashian reveals she attended Anant Ambani’s wedding without knowing who the billionaire was
Kim Kardashian may be one of the most recognisable faces in the world, but even she was left stunned by the sheer extravagance of the Ambani wedding. However, in a shocking confession, she admitted she had no idea who the billionaire family was before receiving an invitation to their grand celebration.
In the latest episode of The Kardashians, the SKIMS founder revealed that she was invited to Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s multi-million dollar wedding in Mumbai through a mutual friend. The Ambanis, one of the wealthiest families in the world, are known for their opulent celebrations, but Kardashian admitted she had never even heard of them before.
“I actually don’t know the Ambanis,” Kim revealed during a confessional segment. “We definitely have friends in common.”
Kim explained that she was introduced to the Ambani family through renowned jeweller Lorraine Schwartz, a close friend who designs high-end jewellery for celebrities and billionaires alike.
“Lorraine Schwartz is one of our good friends — she’s a jeweller — she does jewellery for the Ambani family,” Kim shared. “She told me that she was going to their wedding, and they would love to invite me. We just kinda went on a whim and said sure.”
Kim and her sister Khloé Kardashian accepted the invite, jetting off to Mumbai to witness one of the most extravagant weddings in history. And it wasn’t just the wedding itself that left them speechless—the invitation alone was a spectacle.
Khloé Kardashian, who also attended the wedding, revealed that the physical invitation to the grand event was an experience in itself. She described it as weighing around “40-50 lbs” and filled with lavish details that hinted at the sheer scale of the upcoming celebrations.
And the wedding did not disappoint. Kim later reflected on the over-the-top event, calling it the “craziest experience” of her life.
“I’ve never seen anything like that ever in my life,” she said, still in awe. “Everything had diamonds … I don’t think any other culture celebrates a union and love like this.”
Anant Ambani, the youngest son of Indian business tycoon Mukesh Ambani, hosted his wedding in July 2024, drawing a guest list filled with global celebrities, billionaires, and royalty. The event, spanning multiple days, featured performances from international stars and showcased unparalleled luxury.
For Kardashian, it was an eye-opening experience into a world of wealth and grandeur that she had never witnessed before. While she may not have known who the Ambanis were before attending, she left India with a lasting impression of their unmatched opulence.
Her candid admission has since sparked conversations about celebrity culture, privilege, and the often-exclusive circles in which the ultra-rich operate.
One thing is certain: Kim Kardashian may have arrived at the Ambani wedding as an outsider, but she left having witnessed a spectacle unlike anything else in the world.
