On October 31, 2011, Kim Kardashian and her second husband, Kris Humphries, called it quits after 72 days of marriage. The news of their split came as a shock to many, as the couple had seemed to be in a loving and committed relationship.
In a statement released at the time, Kim said, “After careful consideration, I have decided to end my marriage. I hope everyone understands this was not an easy decision.”
The couple had married in a lavish ceremony in August 2011, with the wedding broadcast on the E! Network. However, the marriage quickly began to unravel, with rumors of infidelity and incompatibility.
After the split, Kim and Kris engaged in a contentious divorce battle, with both sides accusing the other of lying and manipulating the media. The divorce was finalized in June 2013, with the court ruling that the marriage was “irretrievably broken.”
Since then, Kim has gone on to marry Kanye West and the couple has four children together. Meanwhile, Kris Humphries has kept a relatively low profile, with no public relationships since the divorce.
It’s been 11 years since Kim and Kris’s split, and while the details of their marriage and divorce remain shrouded in mystery, one thing is certain: the couple’s short-lived union has had a lasting impact on both of their lives.
