Damon was Kim’s first husband, tying the knot when she was just 19 and he was 28. According to Kim, the decision to elope in Vegas was impulsive, fueled by ecstasy. She candidly revealed on “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” “I got married on ecstasy […] I did ecstasy once and I got married, I did it again and I made a sex tape. Like, everything bad would happen.”

Although Damon and Kim seem to have lost touch over the years, Damon expressed in 2022 that he felt Kim’s remarks about their marriage on television were “unfair.”

Kim and Ray J had a brief relationship, during which they made a sex tape that was later leaked. Ray J has denied being the one to release the tape, asserting that its distribution was “a deal and a partnership between Kris Jenner and Kim and me.” However, Kris has vehemently denied any involvement in selling the tape, even undergoing a lie detector test on The Late Late Show to affirm her innocence.

 

Nick Lachey: ~2006

Nick and Kim had a short-lived fling in 2006 and were seen holding hands at The Da Vinci Code premiere. However, their relationship took a sour turn, with Nick alleging that Kim used him for publicity.

Nick remarked on Watch What Happens Live, “To say that she’s my ex is a little bit of a liberal use of the term. She left about halfway through and went to the restroom and then shockingly there were 25 paparazzi when we left the theater. I think there were other things in play on our little rendezvous.”

Nick Cannon: ~2006-2007

Kim and Nick had a year-long relationship after meeting on the set of Moesha. Reflecting on their time together during a 2021 episode of Drink Champs, Nick expressed, “I was really into her, I was vibing. She broke my heart.”

In a more recent statement, Nick hinted at a possible reconciliation, saying, “Hey, it’s all love, but that’s Kim Kardashian. I’d definitely spin the block.” When asked about Kim’s current relationship with Pete Davidson, Nick replied, “I don’t know what their situation is. I’m not messy, I’m patient. Let’s just say that.”

 

The Game: ~2007

Kim and The Game dated right before she got together with Reggie Bush—at least according to him. As he put it to Us Weekly, “We start dating a little bit, but I would always hook my Xbox up. She had that good internet.” The Game also claimed he was “damn near in love,” but they ended things after he allegedly saw Reggie Bush in her condo building.

Reggie Bush: ~2007-2009

Kim and Reggie had a super on-again/off-again relationship, before splitting for good in 2009. A source at the time told People, “They never get to see each other, ever. It’s been a long time coming. They still love each other and are part of their lives, but Reggie spends six months out of the year in New Orleans, so it’s tough.”

The exes appear to be on good terms, and back in 2018, Reggie told Us Weekly, “She’s doing a great job creating a brand for herself, her and her family. I’m happy for ’em.…She’s very smart.”

Miles Austin: ~2010

They dated for like two seconds and split due to “distance.” A classic celeb reason! As a People source put it, “There’s no huge reason except their distance apart. With his season and Kim’s filming it just slowly split them apart. They tried to keep it as low profile as possible when they were together. They were acting as if they were single or just having fun, but they never were–it was the real deal. They were always strong, but before Kim left for Europe they decided it’s not fair that they don’t get to spend more time together and ended it.”

Gabriel Aubrey: ~2010

Their relationship was extremely brief, consisting of just a few dates. A source revealed to People, “They still talk. They were getting to know each other, but realized they might be better off just being friendly.”

Kris Humphries: ~2011

They dated for six months, got engaged, had a televised wedding, and were divorced a mere 72 days later. He ended up opening up about the split for Players Tribune, saying, “There’s definitely a lot about that world that is not entirely real. But our actual relationship was 100 percent real. When it was clear that it wasn’t working…what can I say? It sucked….It’s never easy to go through the embarrassment of something like that—with your friends, with your family…but when it plays out so publicly, in front of the world, it’s a whole other level. It was brutal.”

Kanye West: 2012-2021

Kim and Kanye started dating right after she and Kris Humphries ended things, but after almost a decade of marriage and four kids, Kim filed for divorce. She’s opened up about the decision on The Kardashians, saying, “For so long, I did what made other people happy. And I think in the last two years I decided, I’m going to make myself happy. And that feels really good. And even if that created changes and caused my divorce, I think it’s important to be honest with yourself about what really makes you happy. I’ve chosen myself. I think it’s okay to choose you.”

Pete Davidson: October 2021-August 2022

Pete and Kim’s connection sparked when she hosted SNL, culminating in a mid-skit kiss. Their relationship extended until August 2022, when a source informed E! News that they mutually decided to transition back to friendship while still maintaining “a lot of love and respect for each other.” The primary reason cited for their split was the challenge of maintaining a long-distance relationship.

 

Odell Beckham Jr.: Sept 2023 – Now

Reports about Kim and OBJ surfaced last fall, and by February, a source informed Us Weekly that their relationship was progressing. According to the insider, “They’re getting serious,” highlighting Odell’s private nature compared to Kim’s familiarity with the spotlight. Despite their differing dispositions, they are “trying to figure out the next steps” in their relationship.
