Last night’s premiere of “Kourtney & Kim Take New York” left many viewers pondering why reality TV star Kim Kardashian married NBA player Kris Humphries after just eight months of dating.
The two sniped at each other throughout the episode, about everything from a broken toenail to where to raise their potential family. But the biggest fight came when Humphries returned to the couple’s hotel suite to find Kardashian, her sister Kourtney, and several friends participating in a yoga session with a male teacher wearing nothing but a necklace.
KRIS HUMPHRIES SAYS KIM KARDASHIAN ‘ATE A LOT OF CAKE’

DID THE KARDASHIAN BRAND COST ROB KARDASHIAN ‘DWTS’ GLORY?
Nude yoga was Kourtney’s idea to “lighten up the mood” in the hotel suite and she instructed her friends to “take it off, (bleeps)” as the session began. Some friends obliged, stripping down to sports bras and thongs, while Kim opted to keep her yoga clothes on.
Meanwhile, the dreadlocked, muscle-bound instructor took off all his clothes except his underwear, even correcting Kim’s downward dog in nothing but his skivvies. Soon, he said, “I am going to be the way I am,” and lost all his clothes — appearing with his genitals blurred out onscreen.
When Humphries walked through the front door, he was shocked to see his wife doing yoga with a naked man in the room. “That’s disgusting,” he said, beginning to laugh nervously.
He asked Kardashian to speak to him privately. “This is so uncomfortable,” he said. “This is my home. It’s so disrespectful.”
Before Humphries arrived home, Kardashian had seemed skeptical of the yoga session, saying, “I don’t know how anyone would even think this is normal.” But when Humphries got upset, Kardashian swung into defensive mode snapping, “You’re so immature, I can’t take it.”
Later the two had a heart-to-heart about the incident, where he revealed he was moving out of their first home together as a married couple, the Gansevoort on Park Avenue South.
“I love you so much,” said Humphries. “But Mason’s playpen is five feet from my room. We got naked dudes here … I just can’t get done what I need to get done here in New York. I think I am going to go to Minnesota and train. I gotta be ready for the season.”
“I don’t really know what to say,” responded Kardashian. “We’re going to live separate? Like long-distance marriage?”
It seemed a strong sign of the couple’s impending split.
And this was hardly the only fight contained in the hour-long episode. Kardashian also became enraged at Humphries when he attempted to pick her up and stepped on her toe.
“You ruined my whole pedicure,” she yells before punching him in the arm. “Seriously, my whole toenail just broke in half. It hurts, Kris. You always do this (bleep) to me because you’re so rough.”
Later, at a party, Humphries refused to pose for photos and seemed generally disinterested in being there.
“Kim, you care about that,” Humphries snapped when she called him over to cut a cake. “I don’t give a (bleep).”
The two also fought about cleanliness, Kardashian confiding in her sister that she wanted Humphries to have his own room. “He is just like such a slob. I can’t even deal,” she said.
When Kourtney Kardashian asks if she can live with Humphries when they return to LA, Kim Kardashian responds, “I don’t know.”
Of course, viewers do. Shortly after wrapping “Kourtney & Kim Take New York,” Kardashian filed for divorce after just 72 days of marriage.
