The 43-year-old reality star was seen sitting courtside Pete Cornella friend of her ex-husband Kris Humphries, at Crypto.com Arena on Tuesday, April 9th. Kardashian and Cornell, 47, looked friendly as they chatted and laughed. It was definitely a trip down memory lane considering the real estate agent served as best man at the former couple’s wedding.
Kardashian and Humphries, 39, began their whirlwind romance in October 2010. They got engaged seven months later and tied the knot in August 2011. Kardashian famously filed for divorce after 72 days of marriage.
The fashion mogul reflected on their relationship as he appeared Keeping Up With the Kardashians Reunion Special in 2021 and admitted she felt “pressure” to go through with the wedding.
“I thought I was letting everyone down,” she said. “The show obviously paid us a fee for filming. I took my entire fee and probably Kris’ too [fee] because I wanted a bigger wedding than they wanted to pay for. So I used all of our production money for the wedding. So if this was a fake I would have saved my money!”

“All his friends stood up and said hello to me. He literally just looked at me and didn’t even talk to me,” she said. “He is very religious and I am sure he would have preferred not to have the marriage on his record. He wanted an annulment. The only legal way to get an annulment is if fraud is involved, so he flagged fraud to get an annulment. So the whole world was wondering, ‘What kind of fraud is this?’… If I was mature, I would have wanted the annulment too.”
