Kim Kardashian's Bodyguard Was Nowhere in Sight During Robbery

Kim Kardashian's bodyguard -- who is normally ready to pounce at the first sign of trouble -- may have been protecting 2 other Kardashians instead at the time Kim was robbed.

Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner hit the town when the 2 gunmen entered Kim's Paris apartment. There are reports ... her bodyguard, Pascal Duvier, was shadowing the 2 women since Kim had turned in for the night.

Ironically ... Kim posted a pic of Duvier shadowing her hours before the robbery, joking he was always in her shot.

Duvier was by Kim's side last week when a notorious prankster ran up and kissed her butt. Duvier had no problem taking the guy down.
