Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries to Sign Prenup

By Kiki Von Glinow Posted Jun 9th 2011 10:00AM

Although we hope Kris Humphries is really the one for Kim Kardashian, the pair is not taking any chances when it comes to their bank accounts. According to E! News, the couple will sign a prenuptial agreement that will serve to protect their respective wealth if things don't last until death do they part.

"It's a standard prenup," an inside source told E. "They just want something that makes sense for both of them."

Although both should consider themselves well beyond the term millionaire, Kardashian stands to lose much more if things don't work out for the couple -- she's worth roughly $35 million while Humphries is worth $8 million.

"When it comes to the money, Kim just thinks it's always smart to have a contract and she has always looked at things that way," the source continued. "It is the responsible thing to do."

More possible details of the pre-nup are trickling out, including who exactly is behind it. "Her mom, Kris Jenner, drew up the contracts," a source told Us Weekly. "Kim's Beverly Hills home and all of her assets are protected,"

The New Jersey Nets forward has a contract that nets him $3.2 million a year, so he won't exactly be hurting for money if things don't work out. The contract also states that all of Kardashian's income during the marriage -- Forbes reported the reality star made $12 million in 2010 -- is also off limits if the marriage does go sour.

"He does not receive anything if the marriage fails," the Us source added. "He agreed to that. He's not worried."

Does Humphries at least get the 20.5-carat, $2 million engagement ring, that sealed the deal with Kardashian, back if the couple decides to throw in the towel? Although the arrangement sounds responsible, it's a bit lacking on the romantic side.

And their incomes won't be the only thing the couple keeps separate -- Kardashian will not be ditching her famous last name.

"I think at home and privately, for sure [I'll be 'Mrs. Humphries'.]" she told Us. "But I think I will always have Kardashian for work."

Just like the bathroom sinks in their future California mansion, Kardashian is trying to keep things 'his and hers' all the way. But the newly engaged couple may be on the right track. Since announcing her engagement, at the end of May, the duo has already been embroiled in countless scandals from rumors of a pregnancy to a pre-marital affair. Some low-key, headline-unworthy "responsibility" may be just what the couple needs.

Lots of people had jobs, except blacks who prefer to have babies ,and collect their welfare checks and then hit the nearest Sams Club on Sunday ( the first Sunday ) of the month. Nasty trash. One can also find the non workers sitting on their fat azzes in salons getting their fake nails and fake hair done . Where's that change Oblaba? Things were so much better when Bush was in office

When will they learn. The prenup won't help with a break up. They need a POST-nup for the inevitable breakup. They can define the exit costs early.

By Jim

Actually, that's what a prenuptial agreement does: It lays out the exit costs for both sides.

By WOW!

HAHAH moron.. PRE-nup just means it's signed before marriage and a post nup is signed after you're already married... both protect when the married is broken up

By Charles

The short version: I want, I want, I want, I want, I get, I get, I get, I get, the end.

Kris:

Wait until that fat *ss starts to sag. Put in your pre-nup that you won't pay for the construction to lift it back up. That could easily wipe out your bank account

By Geo

Sam, it's already sagging. Hence the sash permanently glued to her buttocks whenever this pig finds a beach. Short, stubby, shapeless, hippo legs.

By Tim C

Humphries is still going to go broke marrying that ho.

By rich

I'm sure if the money scenario were the other way around Ms Kimmy would feel very differently.
I give their marrage 6 months to a year tops.

By jeremy

yup, year tops! Shell move to another black guy or mexican, she hasnty had that yet!

By Olivia

What a family! Can we change their last name to Kar"trash"ian?

By mannia

People here - we are obviously in the wrong business. I mean, I am disabled, but heck, I could make a sex tape and get peed on so I can be worth 35 mil too. Unbelievable! Only in America huh? People have no jobs for months, years, but she gets peed on in a tape and whammo, worth 35 million. Something wrong here with America's hero worship!

By cg

You are an idiot. If it were that easy to simply debase yourself and get paid millions, most hillbillies would be rich.

Go back in your cave and pee on yourself.

By Tony

Without any dislike for her as a human being , "trash" isn't the word. Can you imagine how many young girls she has encouraged to be cheap?

When Basketball is done with him--she will have spent all his money already--than do what she does--go find another

why dont FAMILY FRIENDS AGENT talk this guy straight ???

What MAN would marry this trash bag ??--

By Mr. G

If Kris is stupid enough to marry into that family he deserves what he gets! Any guy wanting to marry a girl that has had that much "traffic" in and out of her panties can't be all that sharp in the first place! In addition, anyone willing to spend twenty-five percent of their worth (his) on a ring for some tramp is either stupid or has another agenda!

By drrllms

When you think you're suppose to have anything you want, fidelity is a roadblock.

I'll put the over/under at 32 months.
