Kimora and Russell Divorcing ... Again?

Posted Mar 26th 2008 7:07PM by TMZ Staff

TMZ has obtained new divorce papers in the blingiest divorce in the biz -- Kimora Lee and Russell Simmons. Baby phat say wha'? Didn't they do that already?

The papers, filed today in Los Angeles County Superior Court by Kimora, cite irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split. She is asking for legal and physical custody of the couple's two daughters Ming Lee and Aoki Lee. In this petition she is not seeking spousal support.

If this feels like deja vu, it is. Russell reportedly filed for divorce in March 2006, but in August of '07 Kimora told OK! Magazine that they were not divorced yet, and "who knows" what will happen. Life in the fab lane!

Kimora asks that "reasonable child visitation" be granted to Russell, but that the girls be "accompanied at all times by the children's nanny and security personnel."

Russell released a statement to TMZ, through his rep, saying "Although I haven't read the papers, I'm excited for closure on this issue. I love her to def and I will always wish her happiness and success."

A call to Kimora's rep was not immediately returned.

Story developing ...

46. She's too much. Way too much. Piece of work. Russell seems like a good guy.

47. Joint custody runs havoc on kids: six months with dad, six months with mom, etc. It's better for the kids if mom/dad has full custody. Also, what mom is asking is the same security for the girls as she has, i.e., security guards, nanny, etc., when they are with her.

Relax people . . . it's all good.

51. It's refreshing for someone who does not need spousal or child support to not be asking for it. Two rich divorcing people trip me out splitting money as if either of them need it. Kimora is extravagant but I like her...she's always positive on TV and I'm amazed by that...cause life is crazy ordinarily let alone Hollywood.

52. 29. Why did she file in California, they live in NY, why is she asking for accompanied visitation and why is Alexis Arquette better looking.

58. NOw that Obama has exposed what Black People really think of White People and the USA, who cares anymore what happens with famous Black people? They freaking hate us and our Country and now I hate them. No more open minded playing by the rules bs for this nonsense...its time the Black Race take Personal Responsibility for its own Destiny instead of blaming the White Man, whom they hate, and their Government, whom they also hate.

This goof has enough money to help a whole neignborhood, instead he puts in gold faucets in his mansion.

59. He can only see the kids if he's accompanied by the nanny and security personnel? Is this chick for real or what? As unattractive as he is, I woudn't be surprised if the only reason she married him in the first place was for his money and fame. Now that she's got her own, she doesn't need him anymore. Just another geezer being tricked into believing a hot, sexy, young woman could possibly want him for more than his money. Let's hope he and Paul McCartney have learned their lesson.
