Kanye, Kim agree on joint custody

-

LOS ANGELES — Kanye West agrees with Kim Kardashian West that they should have joint custody of their four children and neither of them need spousal support, according to new divorce documents.

West’s lawyers filed his response Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court to Kardashian West’s divorce filing seven weeks earlier, which began the process of ending their 6 1/2-year marriage.

West’s filing was virtually identical to Kardashian West’s original petition, agreeing that the marriage should end over irreconcil­able difference­s, and that the two should share custody of their children: North, seven, Saint, five, Chicago, three, and Psalm, who turns two in May.

Like Kardashian West’s filing, West’s asks that the court’s right to award spousal support to either person be terminated. According to Kardashian West’s Feb. 19 petition, the two have a pre-nuptial agreement and had kept their property separate.

The divorce filings bring an impending end to one of the most followed celebrity unions in recent decades, between the 40-year-old reality TV star Kardashian West, and the 43-yearold rap and fashion mogul West.

It was the first marriage for West and the third for Kardashian West, who has not asked the court to change her name back to Kardashian, though she might still do so.
