What Kim said and how the team responded
Before the stumble, she mentioned that one shoe felt loose. The adjustment request came moments earlier, and the loose fit likely caused the misstep.

Quick reactions from friends and staff kept the moment short and safe. The group helped her continue toward the party without further drama.
