Retired NBA star Kris Humphries, 34, defended his relationship with Kim Kardashian, 38, as “100% real” and wrote about their divorce for The Players’ Tribune, and all the emotions came as a shock to Kim after the essay’s publication on March 26.
“After hearing about Kris’s essay, Kim is glad to hear that he felt their love was real because she agrees and feels the same way,” a source close to the KKW Beauty owner told a leading daily. “She had no idea the divorce affected him so [much] and put him into that dark place. After reading the piece, Kim feels emotional as she thought back about the challenging time. She can totally relate too, she did a lot of crying over the breakup.”
With a 90-day engagement and 72-day marriage that ended with Kim filing for divorce in Oct. 2011, Kris confessed that the public “embarrassment” took a toll on him and led him to a “dark place” for a year. Although Kim was already trained for this level of scrutiny as a star on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, she can still empathize with her ex-husband eight years after their split.
“Kim Kardashian married for love, not for her TV show ratings and also suffered after the embarrassing divorce,” the source added. “She dealt with a lot of fans questioning the validity of their quick romance and failed marriage too. Kim struggled with strangers who thought she did it all for the cameras, fame and money.”
