Kim Kardashian Files For Divorce From Kanye West

It’s official! Kim Kardashian has now OFFICIALLY filed the divorce papers to terminate her 7-year marriage with rap legend, Kanye West. But thankfully, it seems like it’s going to be a very friendly divorce.

According to sources, Kim’s custody arrangements states that she and Kanye have joint legal and physical custody of their four children. This would make them co-parents, and it seems Kanye is perfectly fine with the joint custody arrangement.

Also, they had a prenuptial agreement in place and none of them are reportedly contesting it. The negotiations have progressed amicably so far and they have almost reached a property settlement agreement.

If you’ve been keeping tabs on their relationship for the past few months, you would notice that their relationship got really rocky after Kanye launched his Presidential campaign on the 4th of July.

It was at this time that he revealed some deeply personal details about his relationship with Kim and even the Kardashian family. The most defining moment in that period was when he broke down in tears, recounting how he and Kim had almost aborted North.

According to him, “Even if my wife wants to divorce me after this speech, she brought North into the world even when I didn’t want to. She stood up and she protected that child.” Sources say that Kim was shocked that Kanye mentioned North during the rally and she was beyond angry that he had chosen to share something so private to the public.

As if that was not enough, the verbal attacks on the Kardashian/Jenner family on Twitter started; he even likened the matriarch to North Korea’s dictator, Kim Jong-Un. He called her “Kris Jong-Un.” It would have been funny if he wasn’t putting her reputation on the line.

After then, Kim released a public statement, where she openly admitted that her husband had a mental illness – bipolar disorder. In the statement, she acknowledged that the situation was complicated and painful and she asked that fans be compassionate in their judgment.

Now, sources say that the 40-year beauty mogul who is also studying for her law degree simply wishes to finish school and focus on her career and children with a clear head.

This news received mixed reactions from people on social media and these are some of our favourite reactions from Twitter.

Obsessed that one of the reasons Kim cites for divorcing Kanye is “banality”.

Kim Kardashian really stuck with him through a lot tbh… after Kanye called Kris “Kris Jong-un” it was a wrap.

This will be the third time Kim is getting divorced while it would be Kanye’s first time. We do hope it’s the last for both of them. Love and light.
