Kardashian, 40, and West, 43, began dating in 2012 and had their first child in 2013. West proposed later that year using the giant screen at the empty waterfront ballpark of the San Francisco Giants, and the two married May 24, 2014, in a ceremony at a Renaissance fortress in Florence, Italy.
The marriage was West’s first and Kardashian’s third. From 2000 to 2004, Kardashian was married to music producer Damon Thomas. She was married to former NBA player Kris Humphries from 2011 to 2013.
