Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's Divorce Explained

Kim Kardashian said Kanye West was 'not the same person' anymore.
Kardashian married West in 2014, but they divorced in 2022.
"When you don’t foresee something happening that really changes a person’s personality and then they’re not the same person and you can’t ever get that person back, but you can’t live with the new person. I get it,” Kardashian said to one of her sisters on a February episode of The Kardashians.
"It’s tougher when you don’t want your marriage to end off of personal reasons but circumstances change that force your marriage to end. When you weren’t planning on that and that’s not really the outcome you want but there’s no other option, I think it makes it harder to get over," she continued.
Kim Kardashian Said Her Marriage to Kanye West Could Not Be Saved

Kim Kardashian said her marriage to Kanye West could not be saved.
In 2021, Kardashian told the courts there was no way her marriage could be saved.
"I very much desire to be divorced,” she said in court documents. “I have asked Kanye to keep our divorce private, but he has not done so. Kanye has been putting a lot of misinformation regarding our private family matters and co-parenting on social media which has created emotional distress.”
"While I wish our marriage would have succeeded, I have come to the realization that there is no way to repair our marriage. Kanye does not agree but at least it appears that he has come to the realization that I want to end our marriage, even if he does not," she added.
