Bye-Bye, Kanye West: Kim Kardashian Declared Legally Single

Kim Kardashian is officially no longer married to Kanye West.

Bye-Bye, Kanye West: Kim Kardashian Declared Legally Single

Kim Kardashian is legally single.

The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star’s quest to become a free woman again after filing for divorce from Kanye West, or Ye as he's is legally known as, has been granted by a judge after the 41-year-old reality TV star appeared in court via video link on Wednesday (Mar 2).

The news which was first reported by TMZmeans that the Skims entrepreneur has formally dropped the West from her name, reverting it back to just her maiden name.

Kardashian — who shares North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, two, with the 44-year-old rapper — told the judge that there were problems in the marriage and that their relationship could not be saved with counselling.

Ye did not object to the restoration of their single status, although only one of his conditions was met — the right to be reimbursed the money that is owed to them if either Kardashian or he dies — while two were rejected.

The first of these was that Kardashian was to not transfer any assets she had in a trust. The second rejected condition was that any new spouse of Kardashian's would be not permitted to testify about communications she had with her former husband.

Kardashian has been requesting to be legally single since December, urging her intention to be divorced quickly and privately, and says that Ye's erratic social media posts had caused "emotional distress" to her and her family.

Earlier, TMZ reported that the ‘Gold Digga’ hitmaker had fired Chris Melcher, his fourth divorce attorney hired since Kardashian filed to dissolve the marriage, which began in 2014.

After the news was first reported it was inaccurately claimed that Kardashian — who is now romantically linked with Pete Davidson — filed the papers incorrectly. However, the beauty mogul had submitted them before her ex — who has moved on with a string of women, including influencer Chaney Jones and model Julia Fox — changed his name. No decision about custody or assets has been reached. — BANG SHOWBIZ
