When Kim Kardashian Called Her Brief Marriage To Kris Humphries ‘Gay Wedding’

As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for pop culture trends, I must admit that the saga of Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries continues to fascinate me, even after all these years. Their whirlwind romance, extravagant wedding, and swift divorce have become iconic moments in reality TV history, serving as a reminder of the intricate dynamics that often underlie celebrity relationships.


Despite Kim Kardashian reportedly starting a new chapter with a different family, raising four kids and managing her bustling business, her digital legacy persists as a fascinating artifact that is still being delved into. In the past, Kim, famously known from “Keeping Up With The Kardashians,” was briefly married to basketball player Kris Humphries in an opulent ceremony for only 72 days. This union was later humorously referred to as a “fake wedding” on the reality show by Kim herself.

Even though more than ten years have passed since Kim K and Kris Humphries’ 2011 wedding, fans still reminisce about their time together. The couple finally settled their divorce in 2013. While the marriage didn’t last long, it remains a topic that people love discussing, including the Kardashians themselves.

2022 found me, fresh from hosting Saturday Night Live, looking back on my brief marriage in an episode of The Kardashians on Hulu. Jokingly referring to the union as a “gay wedding” during discussions for Simon Huck’s upcoming nuptials, I quipped to Scott Disick, “I’m feeling the heat post-SNL. So I might say something like, ‘There’s nothing quite like a gay wedding! Haven’t been to one since my second walk down the aisle!’

Simultaneously, Humphries has frequently been open in interviews, sharing his experiences on how the situation spiraled out of control and took a greater toll on his personal life than he anticipated. He discussed the struggles of going through a divorce and the repercussions of being under public scrutiny, which drove him into a difficult period.

In an interview with USA Today, he expressed his discomfort when people suggest his marriage was not genuine. He clarified that while there are certainly aspects of that world that aren’t completely authentic, his actual relationship with the person in question was absolutely real and sincere.

In the years following her wedding to Kris Humphries, Kim Kardashian West expressed on multiple occasions her thoughts about her previous marriage to him. On Andy Cohen’s show Watch What Happens Live, she discussed the stress she felt due to her friends starting families at a younger age, which led her to rush into marrying Humphries. During their honeymoon, Kim admitted that she had doubts about the longevity of their marriage, and they eventually separated just 72 days after their wedding.
