How Are Kim Kardashian & Diana Jenkins Connected?

Kim Kardashian shares a special connection with Diana Jenkins. The Bosnian native made her debut on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 12. She worked her way up as a social climber. As a result, she knows many people in Hollywood. Fans are curious to learn more about Diana and her many connections.

One of them is her connection to the Keeping Up with the Kardashians alum. Diana is the new housewife to join the Bravo series. She’s a self-proclaimed entrepreneur and philanthropist with a reported net worth of $300 million, per Celebrity Net Worth. That makes her richer than her RHOBH co-stars.

Who is Diana Jenkins?

Diana Jenkins appeared on the Season 12 premiere of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She joined the show as a friend of Lisa Rinna. However, as TV Shows Ace previously reported, Diana has already rubbed fans the wrong way. She made an inappropriate comment about outlet malls that upset them.

Diana is so rich that she’s never had to step foot in a store, let alone an outlet store. In her confessional interview, she admitted that she has exclusive luxury items sent to her home. She tries them on and picks whatever she likes. Some of those items are custom-made for her.

Diana came a long way from feeling the Bosnian war in the early ’90s. She traveled to London, where she met her husband Roger Jenkins, a financier. The two married and share two grown children. Diana has worked her way up the ranks in Hollywood. She has rubbed elbows with many celebrities, including Kim Kardashian and the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan.

The new reality star also made an impression on her RHOBH co-stars. Erika Jayne is dealing with financial woes and an ongoing embezzlement case. She asked Diana to help her buy an expensive ring. She joked that she needs more rich friends in her life.

How does she know Kim Kardashian?

Diana has been good friends with Kim Kardashian. Their friendship goes all the way back to the early 2000s. Per E! News, the two were first spotted together in 2013 at the Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Award Party. It’s the same event that Rinna and Sutton Stracke argued over in a previous episode of RHOBH.

Diana is also friends with Elton John. Her company, Neuro Drinks, sponsors the annual event. In 2018, Kim Kardashian gave a shout-out to Diana on Instagram. The Skims founder shared a photo of herself rolling around in the sand in a white bodysuit. Kim thanked Elle Magazine to shoot the photo at her home and added that Diana “[stocked] us with the best Neuro drinks all day!!!”

Kim Kardashian and Diana are so close that they are neighbors. They both have homes in Hidden Hills, California. Diana was also there when Kim was robbed at gunpoint in Paris in 2016. The situation was similar to Dorit Kemsley’s robbery in October 2021.

“I left the day before because I kept saying, ‘I don’t feel safe. I don’t feel safe,'” Diana recalled telling Rinna on RHOBH.

Diana doesn’t just know Kim Kardashian. She’s also good friends with public figures, starlets, politicians, and celebrities. The socialite is well acquainted with most of Hollywood’s elite. Fans will have to watch RHOBH Season 12 to see who else she knows.
