This week it was announced that Kim Kardashian is officially divorced from Kanye West, after months of controversy. According to TMZ, the judge did not object to allowing Kim’s status as single, however, she will have to meet certain conditions. As the most popular of the Kardashians celebrates her new marital status, we have her marriage history for you. Remember that Kim has walked the isle two other times. In her first marriage, she married Damon Thomas (2000 to 2003) and in her second marriage, she married Kris Humphries (2011).
Her first marriage
In the early 2000s, Kim Kardashian married Damon Thomas. At that time, she was 19 years old and the music producer was just over 10 years older. They were together from 2000 to 2003. According to divorce papers, Kim said he became controlling.
72 days married
In 2011, eight years after her first divorce, Kim walked down the aisle again with Kris Humphries, who was then a basketball player. She was already established as a celebrity and the wedding was broadcasted on her reality show Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
Not the best of times for Kris
The player for the New Jersey Nets spoke about his marriage in 2019 in an essay he wrote for The Player’s Tribune, where he described how his separation from Kim affected him. “I should have known what I was getting myself into. I was not aware of how much my life was going to change, of course. But what really bothers me is hearing people say that it was all a farce. There are many aspects of that world that are fake, but as far as our relationship was concerned, it was one hundred percent real.“
“It is never easy to face the pain that involves going through something like this, in front of your family and your friends... But when you also have to do it in front of everyone, in such a public way, it is brutal,” he said about the controversy of his divorce. He even said that on the courts, when he played, they booed him... just like it’s now happening to Khloé Kardashian’s ex, Tristan Thompson.
After Kim
More than eight years after his divorce with Kim, the former NBA player is now dedicated to his restaurant business and has several franchises of the Crisp & Green restaurant, where bowls, milkshakes and salads are prepared.
Her relationship with Kanye
After overcoming her separation with Kris Humphries, Kim was reunited with Kanye West, after first meeting him in 2003 thanks to a mutual friend. What started as a good friendship turned into one of the most high-profile romances of 2012.
Their pregnancy
After several reports of romantic dates, encounters and a torrid romance, Kim and Kanye announced in December that they were expecting their first child. In June 2013 they became parents for the first time to baby North West, who is currently eight years old.
Engagement
After almost two years together and a baby, Kanye proposed to Kim. The couple got engaged on October 21, 2013. Kanye took her to the AT&T Park in San Francisco and popped the big question with a 15-carat diamond ring. Kim agreed and preparations for the BIG celebration began.
An Italian Wedding
On May 24, 2014, Kim and Kanye said “I do” at a lavish wedding at the Forte Belvedere castle in Florence, Italy.
For her third wedding, Kim chose an airy Givenchy gown, which featured long sleeves, a low back, and sheer lace appliqués. The bride wore her hair loose with slightly defined waves and opted for a very elegant makeup. Kim walked on the arm of her stepfather Bruce Jenner to the a song by the Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli.
Among the guests were: designer Steve McQueen, rappers Big Sean and Tyga, model Chrissy Teigen with her husband John Legend, Allie Rizzo, Brittny Gastineau, among others.
Their big family
In addition to North, Kim and Kanye became parents to six-year-old Saint West, four-year-old Chicago, and two-year-old Psalm.
The Divorce
In January 2021, E! News revealed that Kim Kardashian had made the decision to file divorce papers and that she had already hired the lawyer Laura Wasser, who has advised other A-list celebrities on their separations, such as Angelina Jolie.
This decision was announced after West’s erratic behavior in late 2020.
Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson
Despite the controversies that revolved around their separation, Kim focused on her personal growth and at the beginning of 2022, she confirmed her courtship with Pete Davidson.
Kim’s relationship with Pete has been harshly criticized by West, who on his social networks has not stopped “attacking” him with posts, tweets and messages.
After months of disagreements, Kim’s request to return to single status was finally granted on March 2 through a video call hearing, in which Kanye was not present.
