Kim Kardashian Explains Why She Filed For Divorce

It seems everyone in the world has had something to say about Kim Kardashian‘s divorce — except for Kim Kardashian. That was true until Tuesday night, when the reality TV personality posted an open letter to her fans on her personal blog. In it she explains that she didn’t divorce basketball player Kris Humphries, her husband of just 72 days, because her marriage was a sham. She says she just married the wrong guy.

In the letter, Kardashian writes that when she got engaged to Humphries she was legitimately in love with him, but somewhere along the line she realized that he wasn’t exactly the man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with. Kardashian chalks it all up to being a “hopeless romantic” who believes in love. She writes:

“I love with all of my heart and soul. I want a family and babies and a real life so badly that maybe I rushed in to something too soon. I believed in love and the dream of what I wanted so badly. I felt like I was on a fast roller coaster and couldn’t get off when now I know I probably should have. I got caught up with the hoopla and the filming of the TV show that when I probably should have ended my relationship, I didn’t know how to and didn’t want to disappoint a lot of people.

I’m being honest here and I hope you respect my courage because this isn’t easy to go through. But I do know that I have to follow my heart. I never had the intention of hurting anybody and I accept full responsibility for my actions and decisions, and for taking everyone on this journey with me. It just didn’t turn out to be the fairy tale I had so badly hoped for.”

Kardashian goes on to say that reports suggesting she made millions of dollars on the wedding are “simply not true,” and that she will be donating the gift money she received to the Dream Foundation.

If Kardashian had any words for Kris Humphries, who seemed a bit blindsided that Kardashian had filed for divorce earlier this week, they’re not in the letter to her fans. Take a look at the full letter here and tell us if you think Kardashian is being sincere.

    I don’t really admire her courage.

    uhg! courage? of what? courage to lie all over your tv show about pretty much everything in your life… courage to show your YOUNG fans that, IYHO, marriage isn’t a sacred vow? marriage takes work AND definately isn’t something you just jump into, because you think you are “in love”. who do you think you are fooling?? this is the 2nd time honey! when you do it again, which let’s get real, we all know you will, it will be the laughing stalk of ages. IMHO, I think you have lost respect for yourself, lost respect from your “fans” and hopefully you will never be taken seriously again! i sort of liked watching your show, because all of you have been blessed with amazing genes, but now it all just grosses me out: how you all act!! i truly hope you make that billion from your sears deal…….oh lord help us all!

    The drama between Kim Kardashian Humphries, née Kardashian & Kris Humphries Kardashian, née Humphries is simply the kick-off to what will be the biggest soap opera saga to hit the airwaves since Luke & Laura from General Hospital. Eat that, Kim’s Fairytale Wedding: A Kardashian Event in two parts. One part scam and the other part nonsense. Let’s just say that reality television will never play as well as scripted. Hence, I give you… The Days Of Kim’s Lives: All Nine Of Them http://bit.ly/uun9L7

    If she married the wrong guy ( like she say she did ), then give everything back to include the ring! I think the whole family is a sham!! They are all fake!! All they want is a hand out!!

  • toottoot

    Just check out the number of ‘I’s in that note - I-this I-that I-this I-that over and over. Amazed really at how any human being can take herself this seriously!!

  • Katherine Hassenboehler

    I will always love Kim no matter what. I feel bad that she couldn’t end the relationship sooner. I feel like that happens a lot with people who get too caught up in the moment too fast. I can’t blame her for deciding she doesn’t love someone anymore, but I can blame her for not having the class to return the rings that were given to her.

    Sounds like the store of most groupies to me

    she was NOT in love, and she never will be. She is a silly little girl led by her emotions. if you marry someone just because you FEEL for them and “love” them emotionally, of course you will divorce! feelings are temporary and subject to change. Marriage is not a “see how it goes” thats what a relationship prior to marriage is for. Marriage is also not a “ME ME ME I I I” setup. She is a selfish trollop. 72 days is NOT long enough to give it a fair go. She planned this from the start and is NOT sincere. She isnt even giving the rings back. What a gold digger. Her courage? there is no courage in doing exactly what you want because you feel like it. Courage is not being selfish like she is. She wasnt corageous in her decision, she was foolish, selfish and totally couldnt give a damn about what marriage really is. She didnt have stars in her eyes or butterflies in her heart, she had dollar signs coming out of her ears.
