KWKC/MEGA; Gareth Cattermole/Getty Images Emily Simpson and Shane Simpson believe Kim Kardashian deserves credit instead of criticism for failing to pass the bar exam. "I have to give her so much credit, because she's a billionaire," Emily, 49, exclusively shared with Us Weekly while hosting a fundraiser for The Innocence Center on Sunday, November 23. "She doesn't need a law degree. She doesn't need to pass the bar. The fact that she did it, went through with it, didn't pass and then said she's going to take it again? I think it's inspiring and commendable.
