If you were holding out hope that Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian would reconcile ... OK, you probably weren't holding out hope for that, but now the couple's separation has just become a little more real.

Humphries request for annulment in response to Kardashian's divorce petition was filed on Thursday in Los Angeles. Natch, TMZ was the first to get its hands on them. Available for your perusal here, the documents confirm that his request is based on irreconcilable differences as well as fraud.

To save the curious some time: The filing gives no opportunity to explain what "fraud" means. Whether we get an explanation remains to be seen.

The whole thing was a fraud it seems.

Celebutards are always frauds.

Kardashians Seeking to Discredit, Embarrass Kris Humphries in Tabloid Press, Sources Say

Kris Humphries probably wishes he had never heard the name Kardashian.

Sources in tabloid media tell Fox411.com that a spate of stories have been carefully disseminated by the Kardashian family's camp in a calculated campaign to discredit Humphries in the wake of the dissolution of his 72-day marriage to Kim.

A Kardashian rep says the allegations are “ridiculous and not true.” But it is hard to ignore the spirited whipping that Humphries is getting in the press. It began slow, but has descended lower and lower.

An empire indeed. Kardashian isn’t just a family name, it is a brand that made a reported $65 million last year. Any successful business would try to protect itself from negative press, and now that Kris Humphries is publicly calling his former love and her family a bunch of frauds in seeking an annulment, Kardashian Inc. has to fight back, experts say.

“The Kardashians are a brand powerhouse, and the name 'Kardashian' is the driving force behind the brand. So you better bet these ladies will be do anything to prevent their name from being tarnished, and if that means making sure Kris Humphries is history by dragging him through the mud, then that is exactly what they will do,” In Touch Weekly senior editor Dorothy Cascerceri tells Fox411. “The Kardashian name and image is everything to them, and they are not going to let an ex-husband destroy that. The Kardashian family seems determined to come out of this mess on top.”

Wholly cow  65mil last year.

Best line of that article:

“The Kardashian attacks on Kris Humphries have about the same level of street cred as Ahmadinejad's attacks on Israel," brand strategist Adam Hanft tells Fox411. "Their willingness to put any semblance of personal dignity, accuracy or grace aside for media attention has created the almost unfathomable situation of creating sympathy and affection for Humphries."
