JERUSALEM – An assistant to Kim Kardashian and her husband, Kanye West, says the couple paid an early morning visit to a Crusader-era church marking the traditional spot of Jesus’ crucifixion, burial and resurrection.

Sharon Schaveet, an Israeli producer who helped organize the visit, said the Church of the Holy Sepulcher was empty during their 5 a.m. visit local time Tuesday. A photo on Kardashian’s Instagram account showed the couple kneeling together at the church.

It was their last stop before leaving for Paris. Kardashian’s sister Khloe has returned to the United States.

On Monday night, the couple dined at a Jerusalem restaurant with the mayor.

Reality TV’s first family, including their child, North West, made the two-day visit to the Holy Land after visiting Armenia.
