I hate to point it out but anyone who's seen an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians knows that neither Kim nor Kris should ever be married.

Here’s why: it was a $20 million wedding. When Kim was dating Reggie Bush, she went around telling the press that she already had her wedding planned out, even though the two were not engaged. Clearly the girl just wanted to get married so she could have pictures of herself in a wedding dress before she hit her mid-thirties.

Kris, on the other hand, seemed to not have a filter, or any people skills for that matter, when it came to the Kardashian clan. After questioning the legitimacy of Khloe and Lamar’s marriage, he deserves the boot. When you take a reality star who will do anything to stay in the headlines and a young NBA non-star player with an inflated ego, you get a match made in hell. And while Kris says he's prepared to do anything to make the marriage work, his buddies are saying that he "couldn't catch a break" with the Kardashian klan.

"The cameras are rolling the whole time. They were just married. That's not how he wanted it,'' says Adam Sosnick, who was a groomsman at the wedding. "He couldn't catch a break."

Throughout Monday, comedians took to Twitter to poke fun at the reality star’s busted marriage. “Now that Kim Kardashian is getting divorced maybe now she'll finally get some media attention,” comic Jim Gaffigan tweeted. Even members of the E! family couldn’t help but make a jab at Kim. Chris Franjola, a panelist on Chelsea Lately, ribbed: I know we've all had a tough day with this Kim Kardashian news, but just remember that Jack & Jill hits theaters this weekend.”

On Monday evening, The Hollywood Reporter published “Kim Kardashian Divorce: 10 Signs the Marriage was One Big Hoax All Along”, which reminded readers why we saw this split coming. All the reasons had to do with money and publicity, and that’s what Kim is all about: money and publicity despite insisting that she’s "just a normal girl looking for love."

But Sosnick disagrees, saying, "If this was all an act, they had me fooled. He's from a good family and was raised to value marriage. He wouldn't just fake it."
