Last week, Kim Kardashian officially filed for divorce from Kanye West. After a lengthy period of speculation, TMZ reported that the Keeping Up With The Kardashians lawyer-in-residence, Laura Wasser, finally filed the papers.

According to TMZ, Kim is asking for joint legal and physical custody of their four children: North, seven, Saint, five, Chicago, three, and Psalm, one.

While neither Kim nor Kanye have publicly addressed the news, Kim did appear to hint at it with a video she posted to her Instagram Stories on Monday. As she's making her way to Kris Jenner's Palm Springs home to celebrate her BFF Jonathan Cheban's birthday, she's listening to a breakup song - Drivers License by Olivia Rodrigo - which debuted at No.1 in the UK Charts earlier this year.

Kim captioned the latter part of the video with ' 🔪💚🤍🤎🖤💚 🔪' and, nope, we've got no idea what it means either.

The lyrics might give us some insight though, as Kim shared the part of the song that says: "All my friends are tired / Of hearing how much I miss you /but I kinda feel sorry for them / Cause they’ll never know you the way that I do, yeah.

"Today I drove through the suburbs / And pictured I was driving home to you / And I know we weren’t perfect / But I’ve never felt this way for no one, oh / And I just can’t imagine how you could be so okay, now that I’m gone / I guess you didn’t mean what you wrote in that song about me."

According to TMZ, Kanye is 'fine' with the custody agreement and while there is a prenup in place, neither party intends to contest it.

We're wishing both Kim and Kanye all the best.

  • Venezuela rations diesel supply to truckers as fuel shortages worsen

The diesel squeeze came after the country suffered widespread gasoline shortages throughout 2020, prompting President Nicolas Maduro to cut longstanding heavy subsidies and import gasoline from Iran.

  • Rescued baby monkey wants to help groom her friend

    Grooming is such an important part of social bonding among primates, that this little rescued vervet monkey couldn't resist when she saw me grooming this rescued blue monkey! These monkeys lost their mothers when they were very young, and are being rehabilitated at a Wildlife Center, where they'll stay until they have found a troop of their own, and can be released back into the wild. The Blue Monkey (Cercopithecus mitis), also known as Samango, belongs to the Cercopithecidae family of Old World Monkeys, the largest of all primate families, comprising 138 species of primates. The family includes the mandrill, drill, baboons, colobus, macaques, among many others. The genus Cercopithecus, generally referred to as Guenons, comprises 26 species, and 17 subspecies of Blue Monkey are recognized: Cercopithecus mitis opisthostictus, Cercopithecus mitis boutourlinii, Cercopithecus mitis albogularis, Cercopithecus mitis albotorquatus, Cercopithecus mitis stuhlmanni, Cercopithecus mitis doggetti, Cercopithecus mitis moloneyi, Cercopithecus mitis heymansi, Cercopithecus mitis erythrarchus, Cercopithecus mitis zammaronoi, Cercopithecus mitis kolbi, Cercopithecus mitis monoides, Cercopithecus mitis mitis, Cercopithecus mitis kandti, Cercopithecus mitis francescae, Cercopithecus mitis schoutedeni and Cercopithecus mitis labiatus. This species is widespread across Central, Southern and East Africa. It can be found in many different types of forest, such as lowland and montane tropical moist forest, riverine and gallery forest, delta forest, bamboo forest, sand forest, and even secondary forest, logged forest and thickets. Blue Monkeys are diurnal and arboreal, and live in groups of up to 40 individuals. They may form alliances with other monkey species, for added protection. They are mostly frugivorous and folivorous, so their diet consists mostly of fruits and leaves, but they also feed on slugs and worms. In spite of being widespread, this species suffers from habitat loss and hunting. The Vervet Monkey (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) is an Old World monkey, which means that it belongs to the Cercopithecidae family, the largest of all primate families, comprising 138 species of primates. The term "vervet" is used to refer to all members of the Chlorocebus genus, although it is still debated whether there are several species or only one, with several subspecies. They are native to the African continent, and can be found as far north as Egypt, and as far south as South Africa. They occupy savanna, open woodland, and forest-grassland mosaic, preferably close to rivers, being generally absent from desert areas and deep forest. It's a common and abundant species; flexible and easily adapted to secondary and highly fragmented vegetation, including cultivated areas and rural and urban environments, where it is often considered a pest, which gets them hunted and shot, causing many babies to become orphaned. In some areas, they become bushmeat. Vervet Monkeys live in large troops of up to 38 individuals, with one dominant male. The females are usually related to one another, but many unrelated males may be present. With a life-span of 10 to 11 years, females become sexually mature at age four, and males at age five. They breed from April to June, and a single offspring is born five months later.

  • Britain's Labour calls government's health pay offer "reprehensible", steps up budget criticism

    Britain's opposition Labour Party called the government's pay offer to health workers "reprehensible" on Sunday and pledged to vote against its freeze on income tax thresholds, stepping up criticism of the budget. Prime Minister Boris Johnson's government set out its plans to help the economy weather the COVID-19 crisis last week, with finance minister Rishi Sunak promising to do "whatever it takes to support the British people and businesses". While Johnson enjoys a large majority in the lower house of parliament, his Conservative government's plans have come under fire for what critics say is its targeting of lower- and middle-income earners and not being generous enough to health workers, after a year of great strain battling the coronavirus pandemic.
