We have immediately removed the campaign from all platforms.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Balenciaga debuted the handbag line last October at the runway show in Paris, where models walked the catwalk with bruised faces and bloody noses carrying the teddy bears.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have been quiet for the past few days, not because I haven\u2019t been disgusted and outraged by the recent Balenciaga campaigns, but because I wanted an opportunity to speak to their team to understand for myself how this could have happened,\u201d Kardashian said in a statement. \u201cAs a mother of four, I have been shaken by the disturbing images. The safety of children must be held with the highest regard and any attempts to normalize child abuse of any kind should have no place in our society \u2014 period.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI appreciate Balenciaga\u2019s removal of the campaigns and apology. In speaking with them, I believe they understand the seriousness of the issue and will take the necessary measures for this to never happen again,\u201d Kardashian continued. \u201cAs for my future with Balenciaga, I am currently re-evaluating my relationship with the brand, basing it off their willingness to accept accountability for something that should have never happened to begin with \u2014 &#038; the actions I am expecting to see them take to protect children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">As a mother of four, I have been shaken by the disturbing images.
