In August 2011, Kim Kardashian and former NBA star Kris Humphries tied the knot after dating for almost a year. The glitz and glamour of their wedding shined through the episodes aired on Kim and her family’s show. All the festivities leading up to the big day resembled a fairytale but this fairytale-like story only lasted for 72 days. As the world chimed in with their opinion about this shortlived wedding, NBA Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman weighed with his two cents of thought.

For many, Kim’s divorce was a huge controversy. They failed to wrap their heads around the fact that after the hype, their wedding was coming to an end. Rodman, who has had his fair share of controversies, questioned this move and decision.

Much like Kim, Rodman revealed that he was married to Carmen for around 70 days. However, he stated despite the divorce, the two loved each other and continued to date after the divorce. This situation was not similar to Kim’s. He justified this difference by stating that Carmen and he rushed to get married but in reality, they were fit to be in a relationship for a longer duration and were still in love.

Rodman then revealed that both Carmen and he were working individuals and making money by actually doing real jobs. He said, “Carmen always wanted to be famous and I obviously wanted to support her in whatever she did”.
