Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Declares Kim Kardashian Legally Single
by ANDREW DALTON, The Associated Press · ET Canadaim Kardashian became a single woman on Wednesday, nearly eight years after her marriage to Ye.
Kardashian appeared via videoconference and was put under oath in a Los Angeles courtroom.
Judge Steve Cochran asked her a series of questions, including “is it your desire to become a single person?”
Kardashian answered “yes” to all.
“It is granted,” Cochran said.
The judge’s move, known as bifurcation, allows a person amid a complicated divorce to become legally single while issues of child custody and property are worked out.
Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, did not attend or take part in the hearing remotely.
He had objected to the move, but Cochran overruled it.
