After months of speculation, it’s been confirmed reality star Kim Kardashian has filed for divorce from her rapper husband Kayne West.

The couple have been married for almost seven years, but have reportedly decided to go their separate ways.

A representative for Kardashian confirmed the divorce papers were filed on Friday US time, with the 40-year-old asking for joint legal and physical custody of the couple’s four children.

TMZ first broke the news, with their sources labelling the split as “amicable”.

Insiders say the pair have been living separate lives for months now.

Kardashian, who shot to fame on the hit reality TV show Keeping Up With The Kardashians, married West in 2014.
