Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries really should have talked more before getting married. Last night’s episode of “Kourtney & Kim Take New York,” filmed just after they were hitched, shows Kim refusing to move to his beloved Midwest to bring up children, while Kris fires back, “By the time you have kids, no one will probably care about you.”
The episode began with Kardashian, sitting in a bubble bath in full makeup, talking babies. As she finishes her pack of birth control pills, she announces, “Maybe it’s time to get off the pill and see what happens naturally.”

She pitches the idea of having children to Humphries, saying, “We can have our own cuter version of Mason … I feel like your life really starts when you have kids.”
Humphries, for his part, is easily convinced. “All right, let’s do it,” he says. “I’m excited.”
But after Kardashian talks to her mom, Kris Jenner, she begins to think about putting the brakes on plans to try for a baby, heeding her mom’s advice that she and Humphries have a lot to discuss. Career and image obsessed Kardashian decides to have a heart-to-heart with Humphries on the balcony of their Gansevoort Park Avenue penthouse.
“Where do you think that we are going to raise kids? Do you think it’s going to be Minnesota?” Kardashian asks her husband. When he sings the praises of his home state, Kardashian, who seems to have assumed he’ll just fit into her life, grows concerned.
“I want my kids to grow up with my sisters’ kids, they could spend a month in the summer in Minnesota,” Los Angeles-based Kardashian says, adding huffily, “I’m never going to move to Minnesota. Ever.”
When Kardashian pushes her new husband on how he thinks she’ll be able to continue her career while living in the midwest, Humphries snaps, “Baby by the time you have kids, no one will probably care about you. Let’s be honest.”
It’s a clip E! has heavily teased in previews for the series, revealing the rotten state of Kardashian and Humphries’ relationship from the very start.
By the end of the episode, it’s Humphries who appears desperate to have children quickly. “I don’t want to wait,” he tells Kardashian. “I want to have kids right away.”
Shortly after the season of “Kourtney & Kim Take New York” wrapped, Kardashian filed for divorce from Humphries, citing irreconcilable differences. Humphries has since filed as well, seeking an annulment on the grounds of “fraud.”
Ironically, it’s Kardashian’s older sister who is pregnant. Kourtney Kardashian recently announced that she and partner Scott Disick are expecting their second child together.
