Twitter Reacts as Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Reportedly Headed for Divorce
View StoryThe outlet reported the pair will not be contesting the prenup and a property settlement agreement is close to being reached. Renowned divorce attorney to the stars, Laura Wasser, filed the divorce documents, although a date of separation was not included, per TMZ.
The filing comes after months of multiple sources claiming the pair were struggling in their marriage, with Kim and Kanye reportedly living separately and undergoing couples counseling.
Back in April 2012, Kim and Kanye first went public with their romance. They welcomed daughter North in June 2013 and would go on to marry in an elaborate Italian wedding in May 2014, almost a year after Kim's divorce from NBA star Kris Humphries was finalized.
The pair also share Saint, 5, Chicago, 2, and Psalm, 1.
