THE reality TV star was forced to issue a grovelling apology after a backlash over one of her Instagram Story videos.

KIM Kardashian is looking to atone for using the word “retarded” in an Instagram video after people didn’t understand her and Jonathan Cheban’s Halloween costume as Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee.

“I want to apologise for what I said in a recent video post that is inappropriate and insensitive to the special needs community,” she told Page Six in a statement.

“I try to learn from my mistakes and this is one of those times. Please know that my intention is always pure, and in this case, it was a mistake. I’m sorry.”
