Kim
Kardashian,
who
married
basketball
star
Kris
Humphries
filed
for
divorce
on
Monday,
barely
72
days
after
marriage.
The
31-year
old
TV
reality
star
has
apparently
cited
'irreconcilable
differences" for
the
separation.
Kim
Kardashian
and
26
year-old
NBA
star
Kris
Humphries
had
married
in
a
lavish
ceremony
in
Southern
California
on
August
20.
Stating
that
the
decision
was
not
easy,
Kim
said
in
a
statement
to
the
media,
“After
careful
consideration,
I
have
decided
to
end
my
marriage.
I
hope
everyone
understands
this
was
not
an
easy
decision.
I
had
hoped
this
marriage
was
forever,
but
sometimes
things
don"t
work
out
as
planned.
We
remain
friends
and
wish
each
other
the
best."
Meanwhile,
Kris
was
completely
taken
aback
and
said
that
he
only
learnt
this
morning
that
his
wife
Kim
Kardashian
wanted
a
divorce.
In
a
statement
he
sent
through
his
representative,
Kris
said,
“I"m
committed
to
this
marriage
and
everything
this
covenant
represents.
I
love
my
wife
and
am
devastated
to
learn
she
filed
for
divorce
…
I"m
willing
to
do
whatever
it
takes
to
make
it
work."
The
high
profile
wedding
between
Kim
Kardashian
and
Kardashian
and
Kris
Humphries,
is
reported
to
have
costed
$10
million.
More
than
three
million
U.S.
viewers
watched
a
two-part
TV
special
earlier
this
month
called
“Kim"s
Fairytale
Wedding:
A
Kardashian
event."
