During the latest episode of The Kardashians on Hulu Thursday, the SKIMS founder, 43, had a casual dinner with her mother, Kris Jenner, 68, and American Horror Story creator Murphy
The reality star’s performance was met with such positive sentiment that producers want her in her own series, Murphy said as Kim reacted with shock.
‘When you’re going through a divorce, you’re very close to your lawyer and you tell them everything,’ he added, saying: ‘It has a bond of women trying to get through an experience together,’ she said on the show, via Deadline.
This prompted Kim to say that she had ‘some experience’ with divorce, having been married and divorced three times.
She married producer Damon Thomas when she was 19 and divorced him three years later.
Then she married NBA player Kris Humphries in 2011 and that marriage lasted just 72 days.
Finally, she married rapper Kanye West in a lavish ceremony costing multiple millions in France in 2014 and divorced him in 2021. Kim and Kanye share three kids, North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm.
Kim’s character in the series is inspired by her actual divorce attorney Laura Wasser, who represented her during her divorces from Humphries and West.
‘I mean, there’s even so many fun moments with like Laura and I where I’m just like, “Don’t ever let me do this again!”‘ the reality star said.
‘Then the next [divorce], she would be like “Hi, you reminded me last time, don’t ever let you do this again.”
