Kim Kardashian has filed for a divorce from Kanye West after almost seven years of marriage.

A representative for Kardashian confirmed a Friday report from TMZ but declined to give a statement, and a court source told Variety that the divorce paperwork had been filed. Sources with direct knowledge told TMZ the divorce is “amicable,” saying Kardashian is asking for joint legal and physical custody of the couple’s four kids, which West is “fine” with.

Multiple sources told Page Six last month that their “divorce is imminent,” with Kardashian hiring renowned divorce attorney Laura Wasser.

Kanye West, a one-time presidential aspirant, did not join his wife during the holiday for the Kardashian annual celebrations, but remained at his Wyoming ranch according to the report. “Kim got Kanye to go up [to Wyoming] so they could live separate lives and quietly get things sorted out to separate and divorce. She’s done,” a source told Page Six.

“Now this divorce is happening because Kim has grown up a lot,” the source told Page Six. “She is serious about taking the bar exam and becoming a lawyer, she is serious about her prison reform campaign. Meanwhile Kanye is talking about running for president and saying other crazy shit, and she’s just had enough of it.”
