Kim Kardashian makes rare comment about Damon Thomas divorce: ‘I had no money'
In Thursday's episode of The Kardashians on Hulu, the 44-year-old Skims founder opened up about Khloé's charitable act after her split from the record producer in 2003.
'When Khloé was maybe 4 or 5 years old, she got this piggy bank in the shape of a Coca-Cola bottle. We would put so much money in it,' Kim remembered. 'When I was getting my first divorce, I moved out and had no money.
'I was like 21, and she gave me her Coke bottle,' Kim said of Khloe, who was around 19 at the time. 'We were up all night counting it and it was $6,000 and it was enough for me to get a downpayment on my apartment. She gave me her life savings at age 21.'
Remembering the emotional moment, Khloé said: 'She was crying in my room and I was just like, 'I have this so let's take what is in here and go to the bank to cash it. Let's use this money for your divorce.' I gave her all that I got and hopefully helped her.'
Kim tied the knot with Thomas, the now 54-year-old record producer, in 2000 when she was only 19, spending three years with him before ultimately deciding to part ways. The two cited 'irreconcilable differences' in their divorce filing.
Since then, the Skkn creator has gone to the altar with two other men: Kris Humphries and Kanye West.
In 2011, her 'fairytale wedding' with the former NBA star was televised on Keeping up with the Kardashians. The duo stayed married for two years before getting divorced in 2013.
Kim then said 'I do' to Kanye West in Paris in 2014. They welcomed four children together — North, 11, Saint, nine, Chicago, six, and Psalm, five — throughout their eight-year marriage before filing for divorce in 2021.
Khloé, on the other hand, has only been married once — to former Los Angeles Lakers player Lamar Odom. She and Odom spent a tumultuous seven years together and only recently came face-to-face for the first time since their split in 2016.
The dramatic meeting, held at Khloé's friend Malika's house, was captured in the season six premiere of her family's reality show on February 6.
According to the on-screen star, Odom was visibly 'nervous' upon seeing her. 'He's sweating,' Khloé said of Odom. 'He seems scared.'
Meanwhile, Khloé wasn't as emotional seeing her ex-husband. 'I have dealt with so much trauma in this relationship for years and this was such the love of my life that to learn how to unlove someone — to have to go through all that — it's almost like a death,' she said.

Kim Kardashian debuts jaw-dropping hair transformation and says 'about time'
Kim Kardashian set social media abuzz Friday with a striking new hair color reveal. The 44-year-old reality star and beauty mogul, long known for her signature raven locks, stunned fans by showing off a fresh platinum shade with subtle dark brown roots. In the snap, Kardashian, who recently flew to Mexico for a surgery, puckered up for the camera, flaunting her ash-blonde tresses while still rocking a pair of crisp white pajamas and finishing touches on her glam. 'About that time,' she captioned the post, sparking immediate reactions from fans and celebrity friends alike. Hairstylist Chris Appleton, who frequently styles the Skims founder, weighed in, calling the look 'the best' and adding a white heart emoji. Even fellow celebrities joined the admiration: former City Girls rapper JT commented, 'Favorite color on you!' alongside a heart-eyes emoji. Kardashian's latest hair change is part of her ongoing style evolution, from platinum blonde to dark chocolate, proving she loves mixing things up. Most recently, the reality star sported a curly blonde bob wig for SKIMS' campaign with Roberto Cavalli. And fans still remember when she caused a social media frenzy last year by going platinum blonde ahead of the 2024 Met Gala. She also famously rocked an icy blonde look in 2022, channeling Marilyn Monroe at the Met Gala in the Hollywood icon's legendary 'Happy Birthday, Mr. President' dress. Appleton praised his client as he explained the process of getting Kardashian's look at the time. 'I love a blond Kim. I think it's so interesting how a color can change the colors of the clothes you wear and it really changes your makeup. You can really reinvent things,' he told Page Six. 'We had a fast turnaround because we had to get it done for the Met, but it was lots of conditioning treatments in between each setting and lightening the process, he added. 'My technique really is all about taking very fine sections of hair and lightening the process with just very fine sections back to back.' She also famously rocked an icy blonde look in 2022, channeling Marilyn Monroe at the Met Gala in the Hollywood icon's legendary 'Happy Birthday, Mr. President' dress Kim has never shied away from experimenting with her style, fully embracing each new look she tries. She explained to Allure in 2022, 'I'm a totally different person. I'm sassier. I'm more confident as a blonde.' Her blonde transformations clearly give her a boost of energy and confidence, showing how much she enjoys playing with her image. But she also noted, 'As soon as I go back to brunette, I'm a boss,' proving that no matter the color, she owns her signature style.

New movies to stream from Aug. 18-24 — Samara Weaving plays a reformed getaway driver who gets pulled back in to save a problematic ex-boyfriend in 'Eenie Meanie,' a new heist thriller streaming on Hulu on Friday, Aug. 22.

It's the subject of a new Netflix documentary 'The Truth About Jussie Smollett?' streaming on Friday, Aug. 22. The ordeal stretched on for years and in November the Illinois Supreme Court overturned Smollett's conviction on charges of staging a racist and homophobic attack against himself in 2019 and lying to Chicago police. The trailer for the doc, which includes interviews with journalists, lawyers, investigators and law enforcement, teases a new sit-down interview with Smollett himself. — Swedish filmmaker Lasse Hallström takes audiences on a romantic journey through Europe with an American girl (Madelyn Cline) and a New Zealander (KJ Apa) in 'The Map That Leads to You,' streaming on Prime Video on Wednesday. It's based on the 2017 J.P. Monninger novel. — AP Film Writer Lindsey Bahr New music to stream from Aug. 18-24 — On Friday, Migos rapper Offset will release his third solo album, 'Kiari.' The title is his legal name — a direct reflection of the album he described to The Associated Press earlier this month as 'a look in the mirror.' He said it's a collection of 'different versions of Offset, which comes from Kiari … I'm always trying to rebrand and recreate.' Start with 'Bodies,' a red-hot collaboration that marries Offset's melodic, aggressive flow and the dexterous lyricist JID atop a sample of nu-metal band Drowning Pool's 2001 cut 'Bodies.' It's become a 2025 Billboard Hot 100 hit for a reason. — Who would've thought, nearly 40 years after their formation, that the California shoegaze-y nu-metal band Deftones would become more popular than ever before? They've found new and nostalgic audiences online and have quickly become recognized as one of the most influential bands of the 2000s — 20 years after the fact. On Friday, they will release a new album 'Private Music.' And they sound as tight as ever. — AP Music Writer Maria Sherman New series to stream from Aug. 18-24 — The Amanda Knox trial gets dramatized in a Hulu series called 'The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox.' Knox is an executive producer on the project, as is Monica Lewinsky. Grace Van Patten stars as the study abroad student in Italy who finds herself in prison for murdering her housemate, Meredith Kercher. The case becomes a media sensation and Knox is called Foxy Knoxy — among other things — by the tabloids. The series also shares more of the story of Raffaele Sollecito, Knox's boyfriend at the time, who was also convicted of the murder. Both had their sentences thrown out by Italy's highest court in 2015. We also see Knox's difficulty adjusting to regular life after she returns to the States. The eight-episode series premieres Wednesday. — John Cena stars as a flawed superhero in Season 2 of 'The Peacemaker' arriving on HBO Max on Thursday. It's the first release of a DC Comics story after 'Superman ' flew into theaters earlier this summer.

It debuts Thursday. — An adaptation of John Grisham 's 'The Rainmaker' hits Peacock on Friday, Aug. 22. The legal thriller is airing on the USA Network and the streamer drops each episode a week later. Milo Callaghan plays Rudy Baylor, who is fresh out of law school and about to start working at the largest law firm in the state. On his first day, Baylor gets fired so he takes a job at a small ambulance-chasing firm that works out of a former taco joint. Rudy's first big case pits him against the big, fancy law firm that let him go — and his girlfriend who still works there. — Alicia Rancilio New video games to play from Aug. 18-24 — You don't see many surfboards in video games — most virtual riders would rather pick up a skateboard or snowboard. The 'hoversword' at the heart of Sword of the Sea pushes back at that bias by combining all three. It throws in the ability to surf on sand, which is helpful given that your world is essentially one big desert. Your character, the Wraith, is exploring ancient ruins in search of long-lost artifacts. Master the right techniques and you get to surf on actual water. Publisher Giant Squid is led by Matt Nava, who was the art director on the 2012 indie classic Journey, and Sword of the Sea shares that game's meditative vibe. Hang 10 on Tuesday on PlayStation 5 or PC.
