Earlier this week, Kim Kardashian's divorce saga hit a high point as it was announced the 41-year-old can be legally declared single. This news meant it's time for her to drop the "West" from all her socials and business ventures.

As fans know, it's been well over a year since the news broke that the pair were divorcing, and it's been non-stop drama since then.

Listen up, class! I need all eyes on me as I give you the fast and dirty of what's been going on with Kim and Kanye this past year.

Kim and Kanye tied the knot back in 2014 after two years of dating and several years of friendship.

The pair have four beautiful children together and dodged rumors of divorce for years before confirming the news at the start of 2021.

Since the split, Kanye has been vocal about his fears for his children now that he's not living at home with his family anymore.

His online attacks have been called out by many people, including Kim.

Kanye has been spotted out with several women since their split, while Kim was only recently spotted with Saturday Night Live cast member and comedian Pete Davidson.

Unsurprisingly, Kanye hasn't liked seeing his ex out with another man and has taken to social media to threaten Pete.

He even went so far as to write lyrics bashing him in his latest single with an even more violent music video to accompany it.

Speaking of single, that's exactly what Kim is now!

As of Wednesday, Kim's petition to be declared legally single amidst her divorce proceedings has been granted.

This ruling also means Kim will be dropping West from her last name, which is a big change for fans who have seen "Kim Kardashian West" on their socials for 8 YEARS!

Of course, the saga is far from over, but this is one win for Kim that deserves a pop of champagne.
