Kim Kardashian’s Request to Dissolve Marital Status Approved
Kim Kardashian is officially dropping West.
On March 2, the former Keeping Up With the Kardashians star virtually appeared at a court hearing for her and Kanye “Ye” West‘s ongoing divorce case, during which a judge granted Kim’s bifurcation request to restore her marital status to single.
While Ye was not present for the hearing, his new lawyer Samantha Spector appeared on his behalf, while Kim’s attorney Laura Wasser appeared in person for her.
The hearing took place just days after Kim, who initially filed for divorce in Feb. 2021, claimed that her estranged husband was causing “emotional distress” by putting “misinformation” about private family matters on social media. “I very much desire to be divorced,” Kim stated in court documents obtained by E! News on Feb. 24. “I have asked Kanye to keep our divorce private, but he has not done so.”
“While I wish our marriage would have succeeded, I have come to the realization that there is no way to repair our marriage,” the SKIMS mogul—who shares kids North West, 8, Saint West, 6, Chicago West, 4, and Psalm West, 2, with Ye—went on to state. “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.”
