Celebrity Gossip: Humphries “Doesn’t Want a Penny” from his “fraud” Marriage
There are celebrities and then there are celebrity gossip celebrities: the ones who are famous for being famous (or even infamous). Kim Kardashian is a case in point. Every action by her seems orchestrated for the celebrity gossip rags, each one more tabloid fodder than the last. This time, though, even she would perhaps be uneasy over the attention her short-lived marriage to Kris Humphries is receiving from the celebrity gossip tabloids.
In fresh news to emerge from the ashes of her 72-day broken marriage to basketball player Kris Humphries—a union that had set tongues wagging in celebrity gossip circles—it turns out that Humphries just isn’t interested in any money whatsoever from a possible settlement.
Sources have revealed to certain celebrity gossip sites that there have been informal settlement talks between the legal teams of the two celebrities.
Humphries’ team has clarified that Kris doesn’t want a penny from Kim, and that the only contention from his end is that the marriage was a fraud. Sources have also revealed that a compromise on that point is unlikely as Kim is only willing to state that the marriage didn’t work out.
Celebrity Gossip: ‘Leaked Backstage Footage’ Strengthens ‘Fraud’ Claim, say Team Humphries Lawyers
Humphries’ legal team wants to study the video footage from the reality show Kourtney & Kim. This footage is of an emotionally charged talk, purportedly backstage on Kourtney & Kim, between Kim and her mother about the ‘failing marriage’. The lawyers representing Humphries are not claiming that this so called heart-to-heart was staged and actually happened in December on soundstage, not October as suggested. If true, his strengthens Kris’ claim about the marriage being a ‘fraud’.
In the “slice-of-life” scene that was allegedly leaked (as if it wasn’t meant to be seen!), Kim is telling her mother about how the marriage isn’t going as planned and asking her advice. Sounds touching, but the writers at this celebrity gossip blog aren’t sure what to think when news emerges that Kim and her mother emerged from a Hollywood TV studio wearing the same outfit and hairstyle as seen on the video.
Kim is Unperturbed by Celebrity Gossip Reports about ‘Fake Video’
Kim looked remarkably unruffled by Kris’s claims last night as she arrived looking happy and relaxed to take a flight out of LAX.
Wearing shiny black leggings, flip flops and a black blazer, the star looked fashionable.
Humphries has cited fraud as the official response to Kim’s divorce petition and is seeking an annulment instead. To that end, he wants his estranged wife, her mother and the show staff to be questioned by his lawyer regarding the aforementioned, allegedly fake conversation Kim had with her mother.
Kris feels that proving the whole conversation to be faked would lend credibility his own contention of being married to Kim under fraudulent circumstances.
Meanwhile, Kim wants her divorce petition heard by a mediator.
She’s reportedly keen to have her marriage to 26-year-old NBA star Humphries legally ended as soon as possible and plans to request that the proceedings are held in private. The latter is routine practice in California, since it’s a no-fault state.
