They were one of the world’s most famous celebrity couples.
However, on February 19, a court clerk for Los Angeles Superior Court confirmed that Kim Kardashian West has filed for divorce from Kanye West.
The iconic relationship known as “Kimye” first went public in 2012. A year later, we witnessed them get engaged on Kim’s television show — an extravagant proposal that involved an orchestra and fireworks in an empty baseball stadium.
Moreover, the two were married in 2014, and they share four children together.
Kim and Kanye attend the grand opening of an Intermix clothing store in 2007. They first met in the early 2000s, but it would be years before they became romantically involved.
