At a press conference announcing a new $150,000 endorsement deal with Sector watches, Kris Humphries opened up about his split from Kim Kardashian for one of the first times
The Kardashian family has gone to great lengths to make Kim Kardashian seem like the victim in her relationship with Kris Humphries by talking about the split in magazines, talk shows and other interviews. However, Kris, 26, has remained mum for the most part about his failed 72 day marriage…up until now.
At a Nov. 17 press conference in NYC announcing his endorsement deal with Sector watches (which is rumored to be worth a whopping $150,000), Kris carefully brought up his heartbreak.
“I’m happy to be here. As you all know, this has been a difficult time in my life, and I’m so grateful [for] my friends at Sector for their unwavering support,” the NBA pro said.
Kim’s ex went on to explain why he’s a good fit to rep Sector. “I’m really honored to be with the Sector brand,” he said. “Most of all, they really do have great watches… A portion of the sales will go to my foundation which is all set up to fight against childhood obesity and it’s a really great thing.”
He added, “It truly represents who I am both on and off the court. I’ve been a watch and fashion lover my entire life and a competitor and the no limit tag is really about how I approach my career.”
Who do you think was at fault for Kim and Kris’ marriage falling apart? Do you blame Kris? Sound off below.

I’m sure there was love between the two. When they are together they are both very happy. Only the one main problem is Kim continues to have her life ran by her mother and sisters. Family is great and wonderful to have full support but when it comes to your true happiness and the man you are in love with, that is your family. When you get married you marry your spouse not there brothers, sisters, mom, or dad. No one should have a say so in what is acceptable and whats not acceptable in your life except for who is in the relationship. Vows only say husband and wife, nobody else. Kim has a lot of growing up still. Fame, money, and materials eventually fade away weather it is in 5 years or 50 years. Why evolve yourself around those things knowing there is an end to it when you could love and be happy with your best friend for life. that is the difference between Kris and Kim. Kris see’s everything else in life that makes life great and Kim see’s only the glamourous lights, fame, and beauty.Kris was hoping Kim would be his wife and companion by his side and just wanting to be a man. Kim is looking for a pet that will cuddle her when she wants and hold her bags while she is shopping. Not everything is going to be all about you Kim when you marry such a strong hearted man. Good luck to the both of you!
