Things are now bittersweet -- not just bitter -- between Kim Kardashian and future ex-husband Kris Humphries.

Fans wondered if the estranged spouses were headed for a reconciliation after Kardashian, 31, visited Humphries, 26, in his Minnesota hometown over the weekend, even reportedly meeting with their wedding pastor for a four-hour sesssion.

But a source close to Kardashian tells Us Weekly that wasn't the aim of Kardashian's last-minute visit to the midwest, which lasted less than 24 hours.

"Things were escalating very quickly with them," the source explains of the pair, married for just 72 days before Kardashian filed for divorce on Oct. 31. "There were emails that were getting hostile."

So, before things got even more heated in court and in the press, "she wanted to see him face to face to put some finality on it. To give them both some closure," the pal says. "She didn't want things to get ugly with them and it was heading down that road."

Kardashian's surprise trip was less than two days after she arrived back in the States following an abbreviated promotional trip to Australia.

"She's been having a really, really hard time," the source tells Us. "She's mourning the end of this relationship – which, despite what everyone thinks, was very real."

Still, a second pal says the visit was "very good. Kim and Kris got a good understanding of their relationship."

    Kardashians not only picked on the Indians but if you have ever got taken by the ponzi scam or someone has embezzled money from you its because "it's proof positive that you're incapable of being mature or a parner" in other words she doesn't sympatize ..she'll kick you when your down. It's a matter of record that thousands upon thosands of people have been taken! Again who died and made Kim judge? Your wrong for trusting they aren't wrong for stealing?? You have your head screwed on backwards! boycott anything Kardashian!

    Kim went there for press coverage to appear sympathetic - she's pathetic alright, in every way - she really went there in hopes of keeping that ring and getting him to back off from demanding half of that 18 million they earned for that fake show - when he gets his half share, she gotta pay pimp moma out of her money - oh don't worry, moma took her cut off the top ~ and she got 2 more baby chicks waiting in the basket to pimp coming real soon

  • November 08, 2011 - 9:45am Tammy Lynn

    Its always about KIM always.. she wants to be seen as the one trying to keep it amicable.. Just trying to save face & not a sincere bone in her body. Its all for show. This all could have taken place privatley with no photo opps & flown in privatley in & out but no we need to see the photos & the oh so weary & upset KIM.. not buying it.

  • November 07, 2011 - 8:05pm Kelly Dawn

    OK...so how many people knew who Kris Humphries was before he got with Kim? How many people knew who Kim Kardashian was before her sex tape? Thanks to our society who loves to watch crap on TV...they are known and are still around! I'm proud to say I've never watched an episode and never will. I want to go back to the days of REAL television shows...with writers and real ACTORS/ACTRESSES!! Anyone with me??
