Kim Kardashian and Kanye West donate $25k to injured photographer

The couple's personal photographer was injured

 

Kim Kardashian West and her hubby, Kanye West may have caught some criticism for flaunting the private, double-decker, 747 they like to travel in this week but they also shared some serious dough with their personal photographer, Marcus Hyde, who was badly injured in a car crash last month.

Aside from the hefty donation, Kim Kardashian West encouraged her millions of followers to contribute to the GoFundMe campaign that was set up to help offset his medical costs.

“As many know, Marcus Hyde was in a serious car accident at the end of October, resulting in him being hospitalized with serious injuries. He is still currently being hospitalized and will be for quite some time. With that being said, he has a long road to recovery,” the GoFundMe page reads.

Shortly before his accident, the photographer snapped photos of Kanye West and his wifey during a trip to Bali. Kardashian West was distraught following the news of the accident and  posted about it on social media.
