Kim Kardashian West and Kris Humphries' divorce took nearly two years to settle — which was about 10 times longer than their marriage! After their split, Kris continued to play professional basketball, moving from the New Jersey Nets to the Boston Celtics to the Washington Wizards to the Phoenix Suns to the Atlanta Hawks. He ended his career on the Philadelphia 76ers when he was waived in October 2017. Aside from basketball, Kris and his family own a few Five Guys franchises and more recently, he's gotten into real estate. A look at his Instagram account indicates that Kris was single as he approached his 35th birthday in 2020.

Rashad McCants has been very vocal about his time with Khloe Kardashian. Not only did he claim his alleged cheating was faked for the cameras, but he blamed Khloe for his flailing basketball career. "Without that situation in play, I'm a $60-70 million player," Rashad told The Charlotte Observer in May 2017, insinuating that if he hadn't dated Khloe earlier in his career, he'd be making much more money today. In 2010, after dating Khloe, he neglected to report to his team — which was then the Cleveland Cavaliers — for their summer league, citing personal reasons. Since then, he's largely played overseas in the Philippines, France, China, Brazil and Venezuela, among other countries. More recently, he joined the BIG3, a 3-on-3 league for former NBA players. Details about his personal life are unknown.
Oh, Ray J. The relationship between Kim Kardashian West and Ray J is one no one will ever forget thanks to their sex tape, which is widely credited with launching Kim to fame. They dated from 2004 to 2006. So what happened to Ray J after the split?
A year after Kim Kardashian West and Ray J split, their infamous sex tape was leaked. Since then, Ray J has carved out his own career on reality television. In 2009, he starred on his own dating show on VH1, "For the Love of Ray J," which continued for two seasons. He also went on to have a show with his famous sister, Brandy, in 2010, "Brandy and Ray J: A Family Business." 2017 saw the singer compete on "Celebrity Big Brother." Aside from television, Ray J has also had a few hits in his music career. His song "Sexy Can I" was a radio hit in 2008, and his song "I Hit It First" in 2013 made headlines for its lyrics that most people assumed referred to Kim and her then-new boyfriend, Kanye West. In 2016, Ray J married reality TV star Princess Love. They welcomed a daughter, Melody, in 2018, and a son, Epik Ray, in late 2019. In January 2019, Ray J landed a seven-figure deal for his electric scooter company, Scoot-E Bike.
Another basketball beau! Khloe Kardashian started dating NBA player James Harden in 2015. The two saw one another until February 2016 and were even an item while Khloe supported her ex, Lamar Odom, after his overdose crisis.
James Harden is doing just fine without Khloe Kardashian. The NBA star signed the richest contract in NBA history in 2017 when he agreed to a four-year extension with his team, the Houston Rockets, for $160 million (making his six-year total $228 million). He was romantically linked to singer Ashanti in April 2018 and was most recently rumored to be dating Instagram model Valeria.
Kim Kardashian West started dating NFL star Reggie Bush in 2007 when he played for the New Orleans Saints. Their romance ran through to 2010 — Reggie even won a Super Bowl while the two were together. (Take that, Kardashian curse!)
Post-split, Reggie Bush played football for the Miami Dolphins before moving on to the Detroit Lions, the San Francisco 49ers and, most recently, the Buffalo Bills. He announced his retirement in December 2017. In 2014, Reggie married dancer (and Kim look-alike) Lilit Avagyan, with whom he has three children: daughter Briseis and sons Uriah and Agyemang. In 2017 — just a few months before Lilit gave birth to their third child — Reggie reportedly welcomed a son, Preston, with former Miami cocktail waitress Monique Exposito.
After Reggie Bush, Kim Kardashian West moved on to another NFL player. The reality TV star dated Dallas Cowboys star Miles Austin for a year in 2010.
After splitting from Kim Kardashian West, Miles Austin stayed with the Cowboys for a few more seasons before moving on to the Cleveland Browns and the Philadelphia Eagles, who released him in December 2015. From there, he worked as a scout for the Dallas Cowboys, and in 2018, he hosted a mentoring workshop for high school athletes at his alma mater, Monmouth University. He's been married to college sweetheart Stacy Sydlo since 2014. The couple share two children.
Khloe Kardashian and French Montana were on-again, off-again from late 2013 until December 2014.
French Montana is still making music. He released his third album, "Montana," in 2019. Since dating Khloe Kardashian, he's kept busy in the romance department: His rumored exes include Sanaa Lathan, Iggy Azalea and Evelyn Lozada. The Morocco-born star became a United States citizen in 2018.
Kim Kardashian West's first serious relationship resulted in marriage — when she was 19! Yep, Kim tied the knot back in 2000 with music producer Damon Thomas (right), seen here with Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter. They divorced in 2004. So where is Damon today?
Kim Kardashian West rarely speaks about her early marriage to Damon Thomas, though it was brought up ahead of her wedding to another ex, Kris Humphries, on her show "Keeping Up With the Kardashians." Their divorce papers leaked in 2010 and accusations of abuse caused Damon to speak out. He did an interview with In Touch Weekly that same year denying the allegations and calling Kim a "fame whore." Since then, he's largely avoided the public eye. Damon doesn't have a public social media presence and doesn't seem to work in music as often as he used to. He was previously known for producing music for stars like Chris Brown, R. Kelly and Pink.
This one was only a fling, but it was enough to make tabloid headlines! Yep, Kim Kardashian West and Nick Lachey were an item once upon a time in 2006. It happened in the wake of Nick's split from first wife Jessica Simpson.
Don't worry about Nick Lachey! He found true love with MTV VJ Vanessa Minnillo shortly after dating Kim Kardashian West. The two tied the knot in 2011 and are still happily married today — with three children! The boybander has continued to release music and has expanded his career with hosting duties on NBC's "The Sing-Off" and VH1's "Big Morning Buzz."
Another fling that made major news? Kim Kardashian West caught a basketball game with Halle Berry's ex, Gabriel Aubry, in the fall of 2010.
Model Gabriel Aubry has stepped back from the spotlight in recent years. He's made headlines for his bitter custody battle over daughter Nahla with ex Halle Berry but has otherwise kept a low profile. He took a break form modeling, returning in 2015 to shoot an INC International Concepts campaign alongside Heidi Klum, and now spends most of his time being a dad, golfing and living "a simple life," as he told Fashion Week Daily that same year.
Kim Kardashian West and Nick Cannon were an item? Yep, these two stars actually dated from September 2006 until January 2007.
After Kim Kardashian West and Nick Cannon split in early 2007, Nick moved on pretty quickly. By 2008, he was dating superstar Mariah Carey, whom he married that April. The two went on to have twins, Moroccan and Monroe, three years later in April 2011 and split in 2014. Though he's currently single, he added son Golden to his brood (the boy's mom is Nick's ex-girlfriend Brittany Bell, a former beauty queen). Dad life keeps Nick busy, but his career has also remained steady over the years. Aside from music, he's also made a name for himself hosting shows ranging from "The Nick Cannon Show" to "Wild 'N Out" to "America's Got Talent" to "The Masked Singer." He enrolled at Howard University in 2016 and currently hosts his own Youtube show, "Cannon's Class," on campus.
Khloe Kardashian's most notable former relationship? Her marriage to NBA player Lamar Odom. The two tied the knot in September 2009 after just a month of dating and split in 2013.
Khloe Kardashian famously put her and Lamar Odom's divorce on hold in 2015 to care for him after he suffered a near-fatal overdose at a Nevada brothel. She would eventually file for divorce once more in 2016. Lamar talked to Us Weekly in 2017 and claimed that he was now clean and sober. The single athlete moved to China in 2018, documenting his new home base on Instagram. In 2019, he released his autobiography called "Darkness to Light: A Memoir" — which touched on his recovery and relationship with Khloe Kardashian. Most recently, Lamar attempted a basketball career comeback in the Big 3 league, but ultimately was cut in the summer of 2019 for being out of shape. He got engaged to life coach Sabrina Parr in November 2019.
Kourtney Kardashian only has twos exes on this list! The first is, of course, her baby daddy, Scott Disick. They met back in 2004 and were dating by the time the family's reality show "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" premiered in 2007. The show chronicled their relationship — and the births of their three children, Mason, Penelope and Reign — before their breakup in 2015.
Scott Disick remains a fixture in the Kardashian world with storylines on "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" and the occasional appearance on Kourtney's Instagram feed. The two have remained civil in order to co-parent, though Scott quickly moved on with a bevy of beauties. He's been dating Lionel Richie's daughter, Sofia Richie — who happens to be 15 years his junior — since the summer of 2017.
Kourtney Kardashian started casually dating young Algeria-born boxer-turned-model Younes Bendjima in October 2016 after meeting him in Paris while attending fashion week events with sister Kim Kardashian West. As the romance progressed, Kourt and Younes made headlines for their 14-year age difference, frequent vacations and bitter summer 2018 split.
In January 2019, Younes Bendjima was sued, along with Drake and NFL star Odell Beckham Jr., by a man who claims the men orchestrated a physical attack on him at West Hollywood's Delilah nightclub in March 2018. The lawsuit came a few weeks after Younes posted a gushing tribute to ex Kourtney Kardashian on his Instagram Story five months after their breakup. "Let's not forget this beautiful woman inside and out…" he wrote, sharing photos of her. "You [are] an amazing woman and mum and I hope you will find happiness for you and your childrens. It's all love at the end of the day… we don't know what can happen tmw so there you go." Kourtney appeared to reply in a video post that read, "All love. We live and we learn." In late 2019, rumors that the two had rekindled things ramped up, and multiple credible outlets confirmed a reconciliation that December.
Tristan Thompson and Khloe Kardashian took their romance public in September 2016 while Tristan's ex was pregnant with the former couple's son, Prince. Things got serious quickly, with Khloe spending more and more time with the NBA player at his home in Cleveland. In September 2017, the couple joyfully announced that they were expecting their first child together in the spring of 2018. However, just a few days before Khloe gave birth to daughter True, Tristan was caught in a huge public cheating scandal involving multiple women. They stayed together but Khloe ended things after Tristan was busted (again) in early 2019 hooking up with Kylie Jenner's BFF Jordyn Woods. Now, they are co-parenting True.
At the time, Tristan Thompson tried to deny the cheating rumors, but ultimately the two ended their romantic relationship. Khloe and Tristan came together publicly for the first time for True's first birthday in April 2019, though, they continued to maintain a good relationship for their daughter. For her birthday in late 2019, Tristan surprised his ex with a diamond ring and necklace, however, Khloe returned them since they are not in a romantic relationship.
