Kim and Kanye's split is set to be one of the most expensive celebrity divorces ever.
The rapper and reality star have an estimated combined wealth of $3.7 billion.
According to TMZ, the couple signed a prenup before tying the knot and neither of them are contesting it.
In additionto their many homes, the couple also own a fleet of luxury cars and two multimillion-dollar global companies, KKW Beauty and West's fashion brand, Yeezy.

Here are some other celebs who had to part with a lot of money in their divorce settlements.
Jeff Bezos and Mackenzie Bezos
The Amazon CEO's 26-year marriage to MacKenzie Bezos came to a screeching halt in January 2019 when his romance with Lauren Sanchez was made public.
Jeff left his wife, who has since changed her name to MacKenzie Scott, a quarter of their joint Amazon stocks, representing a 4 per cent stake in the internet giant, worth around US$38b.

Even after the hefty payout, Jeff still had more than US$100b to his name, meaning he retained the title of the world's richest man (which he has since lost to Elon Musk).
The singer took full responsibility for the split in 1996, telling People magazine: "Twenty-five years on the road, working in studios all night. I think a woman needs more attention than I was able to give. I blame myself, absolutely."
It was reported Marcia walked away with US$150m, but Neil denied that in an interview with the Daily Mail in 2014.

He wouldn't reveal exactly how much Marcia got in the settlement, instead saying: "She got enough to live on for the rest of her life."
Harrison Ford and Melissa Mathison
In the early 2000s Harrison Ford got divorced from his second wife, Melissa Mathison.
It was rumoured that Melissa, a screenwriter who wrote E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial, walked away with US$90m in the settlement.
Sadly, Melissa passed away in 2015 from neuroendocrine cancer.

Harrison has been married to Ally McBeal star Calista Flockhart since 2010.
Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren
In 2009 Tiger's affair with Rachel Uchitel was revealed by the National Enquirer, and it quickly became apparent she wasn't the only person he'd cheated on his wife with.
In 2010 his divorce settlement was finalised and Elin Nordegren pocketed US$110m with the couple sharing custody of their two children.
Tiger later opened up about his extramarital affairs, saying: "I knew my actions were wrong, but I convinced myself that normal rules didn't apply. I never thought about who I was hurting. Instead, I thought only about myself.

"I ran straight through the boundaries that a married couple should live by. I thought I could get away with whatever I wanted to. I felt that I had worked hard my entire life and deserved to enjoy all the temptations around me. I felt I was entitled. Thanks to money and fame, I didn't have to go far to find them."
Greg Norman and Laura Andrassy
Greg and Laura married in 1981 and had two children.
During their marriage, Laura allegedly discovered Greg was having an affair with a woman named Kirsten Kutner.
"It was a very rough time," Laura said about the discovery in a 2010 interview.
The couple eventually split and in the 2007 divorce settlement Laura walked away with US$103m.

The following year Greg married tennis champ Chris Evert but the couple separated after just 15 months.
Then in 2010, Greg married Kirsten Kutner, the woman Laura accused Greg of having an affair with during their marriage.
"I don't care what he does. I've moved on," Laura said when Greg's engagement to Kirsten was announced. "It's just that my children have to be around a woman who almost destroyed our family."
