Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Calling it Quits
After eight years together and six years of marriage, Reality TV star Kim Kardashian is reportedly getting ready to file for divorce from her rapper husband, Kanye West.
Kardashian, 40, has reportedly hired a well-known divorce attorney for celebrities, Laura Wasser, who also represented her during her divorce in 2013 from Kris Humphries.
There has been months of speculation that the marriage has been in trouble, with the couple not being seen in public together for some time, and Kardashian has not been wearing her wedding ring.
A source close to the couple says: “They are keeping it low-key but they are done”.
West has reportedly moved into his $14 million Wyoming ranch in order to separate and prepare for the divorce.
The couple has had many ups and downs over the years as West has very publicly struggled with his mental health and made it clear that he dislikes the Kardashians over-the-top Reality TV lifestyle.
Divorce settlement talks are underway, but Kim and Kanye are still in the process of dividing up their properties including their Calabasas estate, which underwent a multi-million dollar renovation.
The couple share four children together: daughters North, 7, and Chicago, 3, as well as sons Saint, 5, and Psalm, 19 months.
