Socialite Kim Kardashian has credited her ex-boyfriend footballer Reggie Bush for helping her cope with the embarrassment and shame she felt after her sex tape with singer Ray J was leaked.

The reality TV star dated Ray J briefly in 2007, but an intimate clip the couple recorded was made public and Kardashian admits that she was devastated by the leak, reports Dailystar.co.uk.

"There's this, you know, embarrassment and shame and so much that comes along with it. And I think that I was so lucky to find a boyfriend at that time in Reggie - we were together for four years - and that was something that he really helped me through," she said on talk show Piers Morgan Tonight.

"He picked me up when I couldn't pick myself up. That's what my family was for as well. So I feel like I've dealt with it and now I move on from it," she added.
