A legal victory. Kim Kardashian’s legally single request has officially been approved by a judge amid her ongoing divorce from Kanye “Ye” West.

According to TMZ, a court accepted Kim’s request to be considered legally single during a bifurcation hearing on March 2, 2022.

The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum, 41, attended via video conference, while Kanye, 44, did not attend the hearing, per the site.
