How Well Do You Know Kim Kardashian's Love Life?
It's hard to imagine a time when Kimye wasn't a thing, but the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star and beauty mogul has dated (and married!) quite a few people before Kanye came along. From her (frequently forgotten) first husband to the numerous athletes she's hooked up with, here's a refresher on Kim's love life.
Kanye West (April 2012-Present)
Though the two actually met back in 2002 or 2003 (!!!), they remained friends for about 10 years before they started dating.
Kimye was officially confirmed when Kim tweeted that she was a "proud girlfriend" in April 2012. Not long after, the two announced Kim was pregnant, and baby Northie was born. Kim and Kanye then got engaged and tied the knot, and the rest is history. They're now a family of five, with their sixth member on the way.
Kris Humphries (December 2010-October 2011)
Kim and Kris' marriage infamously lasted a mere 72 days before Kim called it off, leading fans to believe that their relationship was one big publicity stunt. The beauty mogul filed for divorce from the NBA player just three months after their televised fairytale wedding.
Miles Austin (July-September 2010)
Kim only dated this former Dallas Cowboys football pro for two months, so we don't blame you if you forgot about this relationship.
Reggie Bush (April 2007-April 2009, 2010)
The mom of three dated this NFL star (clearly, she had a type) on and off for three years before officially splitting up in 2010.
Nick Cannon (Late 2006-Early 2007)
Kim dated the rapper briefly back in the mid-2000s. On the The Howard Stern Show back in 2012, Nick revealed the real reason the two split back then: apparently, the KUWTK star wasn't honest with him about her sex tape with Ray J.
"We talked about this tape, and she told me there was no tape," he said. "She’s actually one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. But the fact that she lied and told me that there was no tape?"
Ray J (2003-2006)
Ah, the infamous sex tape era. Kim met the rapper through styling his sister, Brandy Norwood. During their relationship, the two filmed a sex tape that was eventually leaked to the public.
Though some claim that her fame is credited to this sex tape, we'd argue that the success of KUWTK and KKW Beauty is what really made Kim Kardashian a household name.
Damon Thomas (2000-2004)
Long before Kim was the Kim Kardashian, she was married to this music producer. The two eloped in Las Vegas, and got divorced a few years later in 2004.
