Kim Kardashian has revealed which sister stepped in when she was in a financial pickle over 20 years ago.

During Wednesday’s episode of The Kardashians, Kim, 44, recalled how when she was 21, broke and divorcing her first husband Damon Thomas, Khloé, then 17, came to her rescue.

Kim married the record producer when she was 19 and when the marriage broke down she found herself without the means to move out and get her own apartment.

‘When Khloé was maybe 4 or 5 years old, she got this piggy bank in the shape of a Coca-Cola bottle. We would put so much money in it,’ Kim recalled in a confessional.

‘When I was getting my first divorce, I moved out and had no money. I was like 21 and she gave me her Coke bottle.’

She added: ‘We were up all night counting it and it was $6,000 and it was enough for me to get a down payment on my apartment. She gave me her life savings at age 21.’ 

Khloé also explained in a confessional, saying, ‘She was crying in my room and I was just like, “I have this so let’s take what is in here and go to the bank to cash it. Let’s use this money for your divorce,”‘ she shared. 

‘I gave her all that I got and hopefully helped her.’

Kim married and divorced Thomas, 54, before Keeping Up With the Kardashians debuted in 2007.

These days, however, Kim is fed up with all of her sisters. 

Her ire comes from the fact that her sisters failed to help plan Khloé’s 40th birthday party.

Kim, 44, admits early on in the episode that, ‘we’ve been planning her birthday for a very long time,’ though it seems that the whole family isn’t exactly pulling their weight.

Kim tells Khloé on a phone call that the rest of the family is, ‘on a boat on vacation and no one is responding,’ as Kim jokes in confession, ‘They’re all dead to me.’

Kim even gets so frustrated during the planning process that she says she’ll refuse to pay for the whole party, insisting on sending bills to her sisters.

Despite their lack of input leading up to the party, it seemed everyone threw their proverbial two cents in just before the bash, which also annoyed Kim.

Kim tells Khloé that Kourtney, ‘is the only one who’s helpful,’ though she would rather throw a ‘sophisticated’ dinner party with ‘candles spelling out 40,’ but Kim nixed that.

Khloé admitted in a confessional she didn’t know what she wanted to do, though, if she had to choose she would want to, ‘get wasted and just dance.’

Khloé insists she doesn’t want a dinner party, as Kim says she will make, ‘an executive decision on the theme: ‘denim and diamonds.’

Later in the episode Kim’s frustrations show even further, when she says in confession, ‘We are planning… no no no, I am planning, not we, singular me, is planning Khloé’s birthday party.’

She meets with Kris Jenner and event planner Marie Weiss, adding she’s been texting and calling everyone, adding, ‘Kendall is traveling, Kylie is MIA, Kourtney is in baby land.

‘Typically, whoever plans the party, pays for the party, but like no one is here. I’m definitely sending everyone a bill.’

They decide to have a party based on Dolly Parton’s Dollywood, dubbed Khloewood, which would ultimately be the title of her new podcast.

'When I was getting my first divorce, I moved out and had no money. I was like 21 and she gave me her Coke bottle,' said Kim

‘Khloé has always been obsessed with Dolly Parton, so we thought, let’s do Khloewood,’ Kim says in confession.

Kim also talks about finding a live performer, adding the whole process has been ‘super frustrating because my sisters are out of town, no one wants to show up for a meeting to plan a party for someone else, so I’ve done every meeting, I’ve done five or six meetings without my sisters, b****es.’

While Dolly Parton herself didn’t come to the party, the country music legend did send Khloé a video, wishing her a happy birthday.

The party went off without a hitch, complete with a surprise performance from none other than Snoop Dogg.
