KIM & KANYE ‘TO DIVORCE’
DURING their high-profile relationship they have weathered the storms of four children, an £8million jewellery robbery and an unsuccessful tilt at the American presidency.
But it seems Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are heading for one of the biggest showbiz divorce proceedings in history.
The reality TV queen, 40, and the Grammywinning rapper, 43, are on the brink of ending their six-year marriage, according to celebrity website Page Six.
Miss Kardashian, who has been divorced twice, has reportedly hired prominent LA divorce lawyer Laura Wasser, who represented Angelina Jolie and Heidi Klum.
‘They are keeping it low-key but they are done. Kim has hired Laura Wasser and they are in settlement talks,’ said a US source.
Last July, West said he had ‘been trying to get divorced’ in a bizarre Twitter rant.
The couple, who are parents to North, seven, Saint, five, Chicago, two, and oneyear-old Psalm, appear to have spent the festive season separately.
Miss Kardashian posted a number of pictures of herself and her children at sister Kourtney’s house in California, with no sign of West – who was rumoured to be holed up at their Wyoming ranch.
This week Miss Kardashian was seen out in LA looking glum, although she was still wearing her wedding ring.
But she is said to have ‘had enough’ of the marriage, while West reportedly wants ‘nothing to do’ with the reality family, whose long-running show Keeping Up With The Kardashians is set to end this year. The couple are believed to have signed a pre-nuptial agreement but their fortunes have since soared. Last year Forbes said Miss Kardashian had a net worth of £708million and West £953million. Their representatives did not respond to requests for comment.
