Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian broke up.

Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush first met in 2007 at the ESPY Awards after being introduced by a mutual friend and quickly started dating.

Throughout their relationship, much of which was captured on her then-fledgling reality show Keeping Up with the Kardashians, it seemed like Kim and Reggie were much in love and destined to walk down the aisle, often teasing their upcoming engagement.

The couple, though went their separate ways. Many reasons have been touted for their separation, but the most plausible one is their desire to focus on their respective careers.

At least, that was what they said when they first called it quits in 2009. They briefly got back together in 2010 before calling it quits again. However, their paths would cross one more time when they briefly reconnected in 2012 following Kim's divorce from Humphries, with Bush reportedly stepping in and "comforting" her.

The couple endured some rocky times in the later stages of their marriage and eventually finalized their divorce settlement on Nov. 29, 2022. Since divorcing Kanye West, Kardashian has dated just one high-profile figure, comedian Pete Davidson, and they split up after a couple of months.
