Back in 2010, court documents obtained by the Daily Mail revealed the details of Kim Kardashian’s marriage to Damon Thomas.
He would abuse her if she didn’t offer him updates about her whereabouts “every minute of the day.” The divorce papers from 2003 detailed the claims of their volatile marriage.
Damon would punch Kim repeatedly in the face. At one point, he pushed her against a wall before throwing her across the room. Kim was left in a frail condition.
It got worse when he “bullied” her into getting plastic surgery. Damon told Kim that she should get liposuction. He would give her money so she would end up with the “perfect” body.
Kim Kardashian shared a statement during her divorce. The reality star revealed that Damon cut her lip, which was documented in the court papers. Kim recalled: “I fell into the bed frame and banged my knee hard. I was limping when we went skydiving.”
The abuse took place anywhere at any time. Kim recalled it would happen at home, on vacation, and at her mother Kris Jenner’s house. When they visited her family, Damon noticed that Kim was constantly paging someone. He grew suspicious and possessive.
“He became enraged and punched me in the face. My face was bruised and swollen as a result,” Kim explained.
