One of our reality centerpieces Kim Kardashian has stolen the spotlight from a national holiday by announcing her divorce from her NBA soon-to-be ex-hubby Kris Humphries. Now I know you all heard this news while at work and gossiped endlessly with your co-workers, in our age of technology this ain't breaking news. Our little Poison Ivy, as seen above in her Halloween costume, has turned our "reality" upside down. In an attempt to put this catastrophe in perspective, here is a timeline of the whirlwind.
December 2010 - Kim and Kris are officially dating, they meet while Kim was filming the last season of Kourtney and Kim Take New York.
February 2011 - Kris turns 26 (?!... yes he is five years younger than Kim and he is younger than Khloe).
May 2011 - Kris proposes with a 2 million dollar diamond ring, as we all saw on their wedding special.
Two weeks later - Kim and Kris grace the pages of People magazine announcing their engagement and then Twitter exploded.
August 2011 - Kim and Kris were happily married in a lavish and speculated to be $20 million ceremony and reception. While it was also reported that Kim and Kris earned $18 million from the event. (To be honest no one is sure if the $18 million is out of the $20 million.)
Early October 2011 - Kim's Fairytale Wedding debuts to the world in a two part special on E! And as always the Kardashian Klan delivered in the ratings.
Halloween - Kim files for divorce, supposedly "blind-siding" Mr. Humphries.
November 2011 - Now the most awkward moment will happen during the upcoming new season of Kourtney and Kim Take New York, which features the newlyweds and the surprisingly better behaved non-married couple of Scott and Kourtney, on Nov. 27th. See the now embarrassing promo here: KKTNY
Now here comes the mind numbing speculation of affairs, alimony, publicity and classic he said she said. Bottom line no one wants to be Kim while she lives out her 72 day failed marriage in the press, or do they? There has been speculation that this entire marriage was a sham for publicity and that cash money. How much do we think the "I've filed for divorce" exclusive cover story is going to cost Life & Style? I have a feeling this divorce is going to be, or set up as by Kris Jenner, a dragged out affair and I cannot wait for it to be over and done with.
As a side note Kim was married before, in 2000 she wed music producer Damon Thomas. She was 19, he was 30. Not only did she keep the marriage a secret from her entire family but remained in wedded bliss until 2004.
Now that this has all been addressed, can we move on?
Love,
Louise
