Kim Kardashian shared vintage vignettes of her happy family that pre-date her parents’ divorce to celebrate her late father Robert’s birthday.

Robert Kardashian passed away in 2003 after a battle with esophageal cancer, and she wrote: “Wonder if they celebrate birthdays in heaven…if so I’m sure my dad is having the best birthday ever! Happy birthday dad.”

She added: “Celebrating with angels.”

Kim Kardashian revealed in an episode of Kim and Kourtney Take New York that her father contacted her through medium John Edwards and told her to go ahead with the divorce.

It’s been a hard few months for the former golden girl of reality television.

It’s not over for Kim Kardashian, either, as she is staring down the barrel of messy divorce proceedings after her ex-husband Kris Humphries, 27, refused to settle out of court.

Kris Humphries is also, according to several sources including Life and Style magazine, planning to file a complaint against Kim Kardashian’s mother, Kris Jenner.

The NBA star has petitioned to have his Minnesota-licensed attorney practice in California, so appears to be bringing the battle to her doorstep.

According to Life and Style, Kim Kardashian is devastated that by not settling out of court, Kris Humphries has opened their divorce up to the cameras.

California allows filming as part of an open policy on popular cases.

A source told Life and Style: “Kim’s freaking out, she has no interest in dragging out the divorce or having it play out on TV.

“Believe or not she’s a private person.”

“All of her dirty laundry will be aired, and there is a lot to air,” the mole continued.

Kris Humphries wants to prove that Kim Kardashian never intended to marry him and therefore committed fraud.
