It’s been a rocky road to love for reality TV star Kim Kardashian. Here’s a look at her beaus.
Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries met while the reality star was living in New York filming her show. The two were engaged after a sixth-month courtship and promptly divorced after only 72 days of marriage. Kardashian pulled out all the stops for her black-and-white fete including an E! fairytale wedding special, but her family and her brand took a major publicity hit when the relationship crumbled. The pair finally reached a divorce deal in April 2013. (Evan Agostini / Associated Press)
During the summer of 2010, Kardashian picked up new beau Miles Austin, then wide-receiver for the Dallas Cowboys. The couple dated between June and September and the relationship fizzled out because of distance. (Ronald Martinez / Getty Images)
In the winter of 2010, Kardashian, a self-proclaimed romantic, stepped out with Halle Berry’s ex Gabriel Aubry. The reality TV starlet and the Canadian model took in a Lakers game together and hit the movie theater to watch Cher and Christina Aguilera’s “Burlesque.” But by early December, the two had called it quits.

On-again off-again describes Kardashian’s relationship with USC football and NFL star Reggie Bush. She started dating the New Orleans Saints running back in February 2007 and continued their long distance relationship for two years. The couple split briefly in July 2009 but reunited that September at her sister Khloe’s wedding to NBA star Lamar Odom. They ended their relationship in March 2010 just months after being photographed together when Bush helped the Saints win the Super Bowl. Lifestyle conflicts were the reason for the split with Kardashian constantly being tracked by papz and the football player traveling for games and living in New Orleans. Their issues were chronicled on “Keeping Up With the Kardashians.” (Jesse Grant / Getty Images)
In May 2006, Kardashian was spotted with former 98 Degrees singer Nick Lachey, who had just divorced singer Jessica Simpson six months earlier. Kardashian and Lachey were spotted holding hands while catching a movie. The relationship didn’t last and Lachey moved on to date and later marry Vanessa Minnillo. (Jordan Strauss / Invision / AP)
In 2004, Kardashian befriended R&B singer Brandy shortly after the singer was placed on a worst dressed list. Kardashian became her personal stylist and began dating her brother, singer Ray J.
Kardashian launched to fame after rumors swirled that she and Ray J had made a sex tape, which Kardashian sternly denied existed. However, when the video surfaced online, Kardashian sued Vivid Entertainment in 2007 to stop its distribution, a lawsuit she won that following April. (Frederick M. Brown / Getty Images)
Kardashian’s first marriage to music producer Damon Thomas was kept under wraps from the celebutante’s family and the public. She secretly wed Thomas, then 30, in 2000 at the age of 20. But the couple ended the marriage in 2004 with allegations of abuse being slung against Thomas and Thomas calling her a “compulsive shopper.” (Ethan Miller / Getty Images)
