Some people might be surprised to learn that Kim Kardashian and West first met in 2003. At the time, Kim Kardashian was working as Brandy’s assistant.

As Insider shared, West instantly became infatuated with her. In 2008 the popular musician asked Kim Kardashian to be in one of his music videos, and soon after, West started to frequently visit the reality television star. Fortunately for West, in 2012, Kim Kardashian’s marriage to Kris Humphries ended after just 72 days.

The pair finally was able to have a window of opportunity to pursue their connection to one another. Later that year their relationship became official, and in May 2014 West and Kim Kardashian got married. 

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s plans for divorce

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s love story and relationship has taken a sharp turn. The loyal followers of the reality television series probably could see the writing on the walls, so to speak. The last year has been quite a tumultuous one for the famous couple. 

This past summer West surprised the world when he decided to briefly attempt running for president. In an emotional speech West revealed that when Kim Kardashian was pregnant with their daughter North, he wanted his then future-wife to abort the pregnancy.

At this point in time, the couple was already spending significant time away from each other, and West was staying at his ranch in Wyoming. Despite Kim Kardashian’s statements that she and West were working on their relationship, the star from Keeping Up with the Kardashians was recently spotted without her wedding ring, and, shortly after, she officially filed for divorce.
