When did Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries get married?

Kris is best known for his 72-day marriage to Kim Kardashian, 41.

They were together for less than a year before he proposed and on August 20, 2011, the pair officially tied the knot in a two-part E! News special showing the preparations and the wedding itself.

But despite being touted as "Kim's fairytale wedding" things did not last.

On October 31, 2011, it was announced that Kim had filed for divorce from Kris.

On December 1, 2011, Kris filed his response to Kim's petition, requesting an annulment on the grounds of fraud or a decree of legal separation rather than the requested divorce.

After a lengthy legal battle, the former couple reached a divorce settlement which was finalized on June 3, 2013.

What did Kim say about Humphries?

During the Keeping Up with the Kardashians reunion episode on June 17, 2021, Kim said she owes Humphries an apology, saying she handled the split "totally the wrong way."

Kris Jenner explained that the night before Kim and Kris' rehearsal dinner, she tried to talk her daughter out of tying the knot.

"What you said to me is: 'I'm going to put you in a car, no one will find you, just leave and I'll handle it,'" Kim recalled her mom saying.

"And I thought, 'Okay, we're filming this for a TV show. If I leave, I'm going to be known as the runaway bride forever and it's going to be a huge joke, and I think I just have cold feet.'

"So I was like, 'Okay guys, it's just cold feet, I got this, it's cold feet, we're filming the show.'"

Kim then ridiculed rumors that her wedding to Kris was a publicity stunt.

"The show paid us, obviously, a fee to film the show. I took my entire fee and probably Kris' because I wanted a bigger wedding than what they were going to pay for," she said.

"So I used all of our production money on the wedding, right. So, if that was fake, I would have saved my money."

"Would you say you partially went through with the wedding because of the show?" host Andy Cohen asked.

"Yes," Kim said.

"Because I felt pressured, I felt like I was going to let everyone down." 

Kim then admitted that she handled their breakup "the wrong way," and owes him an apology.

"I was so nervous to break up with someone, I handled it totally the wrong way," she shared.

"I fully broke up with him in the worst way, and I couldn't, I just didn't know how to deal, I learned so much from it."

"Do you think you owe him an apology?" Cohen asked, to which Kim replied, "Absolutely, and I tried to, I tried calling him for months." 

Kim revealed that Kris wanted an annulment of their marriage rather than a divorce, but she insisted on the divorce.
