Kim Kardashian Says No Counseling Can Fix Marriage With Kanye West in New Court Filing

Kim Kardashian is looking to expedite the termination of her marriage to Kanye West. In court documents obtained by ET on Monday, the 41-year-old reality star stated that her relationship with Kanye is unsalvageable.

After first filing to be declared legally single last week, the latest docs further emphasize her desire to "bifurcate the issue of marital status from the remaining issues to be heard in this matter, and to terminate the parties’ marital status."

The documents are also asking that the issues regarding custody of the couple's four children, as well as property matters and division of assets, be dealt separately from the issue of their marital status, allowing Kim to be legally single sooner.

The court date for their divorce hearing is set for March 22, though Kim is requesting that the courts "grant an early and separate trial on the issue of the dissolution of the status of the marriage apart from other issues...rather than delaying the dissolution until all other property and custody issues are resolved."

"The parties’ marriage has irremediably broken down. [Kim Kardashian] no longer desires to be married to [Kanye West]," the documents state. "...There is no question that the marriage of the parties is no longer viable."

Despite Kanye's efforts to woo his estranged wife, the docs state that Kim has "no desire to reconcile."

"Irreconcilable differences have led to the irremediable breakdown of the marriage, and there is no possibility of saving the marriage through counseling or other means," read the docs. "The continued maintenance of technical marital status between [Kardashian] and [West] serves no useful purpose, and there is no reason to maintain the legal relationship."

In her declaration, Kim notes, "I have been attempting to settle our dissolution with [Kanye West] since I filed for divorce in February 2021. I have requested several times that [he] agree to bifurcate and terminate our marital status. [He] has not responded to my request."

Kim concluded that both she and Kanye "deserve the opportunity to build new lives."

Last Thursday, Kanye begged his ex to "run back" to him at his Los Angeles concert in updated the lyrics to his song, "Runaway." 

"I need you to run right back to me, more specifically, Kimberly," he sang.

This is the latest in a number of public attempts to seemingly convince Kim to change her mind about their split.

Kim filed for divorce from Kanye in February after six years of marriage. She had asked for joint legal and physical custody of their four children -- North, 8, Saint, 6, Chicago, 3, and Psalm, 2.

A source told ET at the time that the 44-year-old rapper was fine with the joint custody agreement and the two were committed to co-parenting together. The source also noted that neither Kim or Kanye was planning to contest their prenup and they were in the process of reaching a property settlement agreement.

While Kim has been supportive of Kanye -- by attending his shows and co-parenting -- she has moved on and is currently dating Pete Davidson. Kim and the 28-year-old Saturday Night Live star have been spotted on several dates together over the past few months.

"Kim has been protective of Kanye and his feelings and has been trying to keep her hangouts with Pete low-key, because she doesn't know how he will react," a source told ET. 

As for her romance with Pete, a source told ET this week, "Kim is giddy when Pete's around. Kim feels relaxed and comfortable with Pete and she definitely has that new crush feeling with him."
