Kim Kardashian's Divorce Gets Nasty
Kardashian and Kris Humphries will be deposed in divorce case.
June 26, 2012 — -- intro: The drama surrounding Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries' divorce has lasted a lot longer than their 72-day marriage.
On Monday, the reality TV star's legal team began grilling Humphries in Minneapolis. The NBA player, 27, has accused Kardashian, 31, of defrauding him by marrying him solely for TV ratings and publicity. The former couple's depositions are reportedly being videotaped, and once they are both completed, a date for their divorce trial will be set.
The two signed a pre-nup and both exchanged declarations of disclosure, which could call Humphries' accusations into question. Meanwhile, according to TMZ, Humphries suspects that Kardashian was cheating on him with current boyfriend Kanye West because West wasn't invited to their August 2011 wedding.
Kris Jenner, Kardashian's mother, is laughing it off.
"[Kim's] really good with her intuition and she's usually -- well, she hasn't been so right lately," Jenner said on Bethenny Frankel's talk show Monday. "What's a measly 72 days?"

Elizabeth Travis insists her former husband's "intentional interfering" with her job undermined "the effectiveness of his career in the entertainment industry," according to TMZ.
The couple divorced in 2010. Elizabeth Travis, or "Lib" as she's known, sued Travis last April, claiming he "intentionally interfered with" her role as his manager. She was married to Travis for 19 years and managed him for 30, until, she claims, the singer and his attorneys terminated her contract without any written notice. She says her ex "had a large truck, an armed guard and several other men" haul computers, documents and memorabilia from her Nashville office.
Travis, 52, shot back with a lawsuit of his own, claiming his ex-wife breached her contract by spilling "personal details" about him in a plot to ruin his career, according to TMZ. He also claims that his wife tried to cheat him out of his money by inflating her travel reimbursement requests. He wants a judge to block her request to be paid back management fees. She is also seeking damages for lost earnings.
The "Forever and Ever, Amen" singer has had his share of troubles lately. In February, he was arrested outside a church in Sanger, Texas, for public intoxication. He later apologized for what he said resulted from an evening of celebrating the Super Bowl. media: 16449651
