Washington D.C. [USA], Oct. 4 : Kim Kardashian may be an active socialite but nothing comes before her children and her motherly instinct.

According to E! Online, the 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star, who was held at gunpoint inside her Paris hotel room by two armed masked men dressed as police officers, begged for them to let her live as she had babies at home.

"She begged for them to let her live and [said] she has babies at home. Then they wrapped her mouth in tape and put her in the bathtub," the 35-year-old's rep said, adding, "She thought they were for sure going to kill her."

According to the source, the reality star and mother of two "was gagged and bound at her hands and feet" during the robbery, then handcuffed and held at gunpoint.

After the men left with "all her jewelry," Kardashian freed herself and got out of the bathtub in which the men had earlier put her.
