Sources told TMZ Kim was struggling over making the decision to divorce. They also reported she spent the entire week crying before she filed the documents, changing her mind several times over because she wasn't 100 percent sure the marriage couldn't be salvaged.
One of Kim's friends told the gossip site she finalized the decision after learning Kris hired a Hollywood publicist to work on his image, angrily saying, "He's not in (expletive) Hollywood. He plays sports."
Humphries told reporters he was willing to do whatever it takes to repair his broken marriage. "I'm committed to this marriage and everything this covenant represents," he said.
He continued, "I love my wife and am devastated to learn she filed for divorce...I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make it work."
Friend's of Kim told TMZ they think Kris is lying when he said all he wanted was a nice life with her in Minnesota, and that now the marriage is over he's "chasing fame."
They say Kim was put off by Kris' persistence to keep their connection going even if they divorced. Kris wanted to brand his name, and try to get deals for cologne, nightclub appearances, and other merchandise.
The divorce was made official yesterday with TMZ breaking the story. Once of the main reasons was Kris wanting to live in Minnesota with Kim.
Kardashian did not want to leave Hollywood because of her career, spelling the end of their marriage.
