Kim Kardashian has admitted she already knew on her honeymoon with Kris Humphries that their marriage would fail.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star, 36, married her second husband, basketball player Kris, in 2011 during a lavish ceremony in Montecito, California rumoured to have cost $10 million and featuring two wedding dresses.
It was all filmed for a two-part E! reality show called Kim’s Fairytale Wedding… but just 72 days later, Kim had filed for divorce and the fairytale was well and truly over.
Not that it was a surprise for Kim.

In an interview with US TV's Watch What Happens Live , the star was asked whether she went into the marriage believing it was forever or expecting it to not last.
Kim said: "I just thought, 'Holy s**t, I'm 30 years old, I better get this together, I better get married'.
"I think a lot of girls do go through that where they freak out thinking they're getting old and have to figure it out, all their friends are having kids. It was more of that situation.
"But I knew on honeymoon it wasn't going to work out."
Although the couple separated in 2011, their divorce wasn't finalised for several years; Kim filed for divorce but Kris countered by seeking an annulment, alleging fraud and that the wedding was just for the TV cameras.

Kim vehemently denied that, saying on the Letterman show at the time: "I would love to give him [an annulment] but then that would make... the only legal way to get an annulment is if fraud were involved, so that's what's tricky. So he is suing me for an annulment based on the fact that I frauded him into marrying him for publicity... but [that didn't happen] in my case, no."
When the divorce was finally granted in 2013, Kim was already pregnant with new man Kanye West's daughter - they went on to marry in 2014 and now have a second child, son Saint.
Kim once said in an interview she was the one who made contact with Kanye, about six months after her split from Kris.

The couple recently celebrated their third wedding anniversary
I was always attracted to him," she told Access Hollywood .
"When I first met him, we worked on a project together and there was definitely a spark, but we were in other relationships and we kept our distance, and that was that.
"And then, I think it was six months after I was newly single in 2012, I was like, 'Why not? Like, what am I waiting for?'"
Kim and Kanye married in Italy in 2014.
They've recently faced speculation of trouble in their romance but Kim brushed that off last week by Snapchatting a gorgeous gift her hubby had sent her after their third wedding anniversary.
Taking a tour of a room in her home with her camera, Kim says: "How cute that I get to come home and see these gorgeous floating flowers. Happy anniversary.”
She added on Instagram: "3 down, a lifetime to go...”
