The iconic status symbol – which was listed by Sotheby’s – was originally created for actress and model Jane Birkin in 1984.

Despite stains and scratches, it became the most expensive handbag ever sold after a buyer paid a huge €8.6 million ($10 million).

Kim Kardashian, 44, took to social media to poke fun at the sale as she seemed to be eyeing up the bag.

She posted a video on her Instagram which featured an AI version of herself by meme account RickDick.

The character broke a glass case which contained the original Birkin bag, as the caption read: “birKIM.”

After the post, she followed up with a string of texts from various people, who all wondered if she had bought the extortionate accessory.

One text read: “Please tell me you bought that Birkin. Would be BAD ASS.”

Another pal asked: “Are u the winner of the first Birkin bag?”

While a third enquired: “Did you buy Jane Birkin’s birkin?!!?”

As a fourth jokingly stated: “”Kim for real did you buy the original Birkin??? Or should I stop blaming you every time I lose an auction?”

Kim Kardashian mocked for ‘drunk’ Balenciaga runway walk as fans ask ‘what is she doing?’

And someone else added: “Okay tell me the truth, did you buy the Birkin or not?”

However, the designer bag actually went to a private collector from Japan – whose identity is known – despite the speculation.

The bid was placed through Maiko Ichikawa who is the Country Head of Sotheby’s Japan

Jeff Bezos’ wife Lauren Sanchez – who is a close friend of The Kardashians reality star – was also rumored to have bid for ownership of the bag.

According to the Associated Press, the auction started at a whopping $1million as bids were placed both in person and via the phone.

Bids were as high as $6.5 million, $6.8 million and €6.2 million ($7.2million) before the final price was agreed.
