After only 72 days of marriage socialite Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from her husband, NBA star Kris Humphries.

Weird.  72 is the exact number of days you have to stay married in order to not have to return the $17 million dollars you banked from your wedding.  What a krazy koincidence…

Ryan Seacrest, executive producer of the hit E! reality show “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” confirmed the news about the split earlier this morning via his Twitter account.

Yes @kimkardashian is filing for divorce this morning. I touched base with her, getting a statement in just a few mins.

Kardashian cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the break up and the couple, who did sign a prenup before the wedding, will not be seeking an annulment.

Regarding the ending of her brief marriage, Kim issued the following statement:

After careful consideration, I have decided to end my marriage. I hope everyone understands this was not an easy decision. I had hoped this marriage was forever, but sometimes things don’t work out as planned. We remain friends and wish each other the best.

It’s always sad to see a marriage end, but these two just gave up after only 2 1/2 months of being husband and wife.  All I can say is – I want my toaster over back.

New Jersey Nets star Kris Humphries may have just put a ring on Kim Kardashian over the summer, but the newlyweds are already fighting off break up rumors galore – including several magazine cover stories insisting the happy couple is headed for divorce.

So is it true or false?  Are Kim and Kris hitting the skids or have the paparazzi simply run out of celebs to torment this week?

If you guessed false… you’re right!

According to sources close to the couple, despite the fact that Humphries was seen “moving out” of the home he shares with Kardashian, the pair couldn’t be happier.   Apparently, photogs caught Kris with some cardboard boxes he and Kim were using to move out of the Gansevoort Hotel and jumped to some pretty serious conclusions.

Imagine that.  The paparazzi jumping to conclusions.  What is this world coming to?
