After six years of marriage, Kim Kardashian has filed for divorce from Kenya West, US media reported.
In recent weeks a breakup of the world-famous couple has been reported, but only tonight has the official confirmation arrived.
Kim reportedly asked for joint custody of their four children.
Sources involved in the details told TMZ that Kenya has agreed to the arrangement for joint custody and the former couple are committed to this.
Last month, Page Six, which relies on several sources, reported that the couple was facing divorce.
"They keep a low profile, but they're done," one source told the site.
"Kim has hired the services of Laura Wasser, a divorce lawyer, and they are in talks ahead of a settlement."
According to the same report, Kardashian was spotted without the wedding ring by her, and even West spent the last period on his farm in Wyoming.
"Kim made Kenya go there so they could live separately, sort things out quietly - and get divorced," a source added.
West, who suffers from bipolar disorder, faced in July 2020 a setback in his condition following his refusal to take his medication.
In a series of tweets on Twitter, which followed an election rally he ran as part of a campaign he ran for the U.S. presidency, West also wrote about a divorce from Kardashian, who in turn tried to convey support for her husband, and a story she asked for compassion and understanding.
