WILL YOU MARRY ME? . . . Kanye West proposed marriage to his baby mama Kim Kardashian last Monday and the reality television star said “Yes”

LOVE, or the lack there of, is a numbers game for the Kardashian clan and the odds are certainly not in their favour.
Only one marriage out of 11 trips down the aisle has not ended up in divorce or separation for the Kardashian women, Bruce Jenner or the late Robert Kardashian.
But exactly a week ago Kanye West (35), ever the bold, decided to take a chance and propose to the woman who he’s seemingly been in love with for years.

To mark Kim’s 33rd birthday, the hip-hop star hired a stadium in San Francisco and asked his “perfect b****” to do him the honour of becoming his wife.

But the odds are against them.
With the announcement that Kris and Bruce have split after 22 years together two weeks ago, the extended family now have seven divorces and three separations between them.

The only person to remain married was the late Robert Kardashian and his wife Ellen Pierson, who were married just eight weeks prior to his death from cancer.

Interestingly. it is the relationship in the Kardashian family that has not involved marriage — Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick — that seems to be the most successful.

While Kim (33) has one of the more dubious relationship histories of her family, she seems to have finally found her love match with the rapper.

After being friends for seven years the pair quickly became inseparable and in December they announced they were expecting a child together, baby North, who was born on June 15.

Their love only blossomed, however, after the star’s second marriage and most infamous relationship collapsed.
Kim caused a public outcry after she filed for divorce from her second husband, Kris Humphries, after just 72 days.
In the family: Kim is no stranger to divorce with her mother Kris and father Robert divorcing when she was a young girl after 13 years of marriage following her mother’s affair

Widowed: The only person to remain married was the late Robert Kardashian and his wife Ellen Pierson, who tragically were married just eight weeks prior to his death from cancer

The reality star and NBA player had tied the knot on August 20, 2011 and the wedding itself aired as a televised special in early October, just a few days Kim filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences.

The pair slugged it out in court and in the media but finally divorced this year.
The star had previously married music producer Damon Thomas at 19 only to get divorced three years later.
Kim is, of course, no stranger to divorce with her mother Kris and father Robert divorcing when she was a young girl.

Three times not a charm: Bruce has been down the aisle before and is seen here with his second wife Linda Thompson, who he left his first wife.

The couple were married for 13 years before divorcing acrimoniously in 1991 after Kris had an affair with a much younger man Todd Waterman.

Robert went on to marry twice more, while Kris married Bruce just a month after her divorce was finalised.
Bruce and Kris had been dating five months when they walked down the aisle blending Kris’ family of four —Kim, Kourtney, Khloe and Robert — with Bruce’s brood of four as well.

Bruce was no stranger to to walking down the aisle having done it twice before.
During his success as an Olympic athlete, Bruce was married to Chrystie Crownover, whom he had two children Burt and Casey. Chrystie was pregnant with Casey when Bruce left her for actress Linda Thompson.

The 63-year-old married Elvis’ former girlfriend the same year he divorced his first wife. During their four years of marriage he had two sons, Brandon and Brody — both of whom starred on “Keeping Up With The Kardashians”.

Bruce and Kris are not the only ones to fall to the Kardashian Kurse recently.
Kris’ daughter Khloe also appears to be struggling to keep her marriage together.

The 29-year-old has reportedly split with her husband of three years Lamar Odom as he is allegedly struggling with drug dependency issues.

The couple were held up by many as a true love story having married just a month after meeting.
The pair even released a unisex perfume together, Unbreakable, as a symbol of their bond.
Ironically, Khloe’s sister Kourtney appears to now have the most stable relationship.

Curse’s latest victim? Khloe has reportedly split with her husband of three years Lamar Odom as he is allegedly struggling with drug dependency issues.

The 34-year-old and her younger boyfriend Scott Disick were always seen as the unstable couple amongst the Kardashian clan, however, now after seven years and two children together — Mason and Penelope — the couple still have no plans to marry — and are still together.
There has also been rumours circulating that Kourtney 34-year-old is expecting for a third time.

Scott told Keeping Up With Kardashians creator Ryan Seacrest, the pair do not plan to tie the knot anytime soon.
Scott said: “I think if it’s not broke, don’t fix it.

“I feel like I used to want to get married more than she did, and then, being that she was always so not interested, I’ve decided not to be.” — Daily Mail.
