Kim Kardashian -- feeling the backlash from a 72-day marriage many are calling a lucrative publicity stunt -- told Aussie radio hosts Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O Wednesday that she would “never marry for a TV show or for money.”
The appearance marked Kim’s first interview since shockingly filing for divorce from husband Kris Humphries Monday.
"I don't think I'm ready to go into details of what went on in my marriage,” the socialite told the 2Day FM hosts, “but I do want to make clear that I would never marry for a TV show, for money, for anything like that and I think that’s ridiculous that I have to defend that.
“But I guess that's what comes along with when you film your wedding for a reality show."
Kim, 31, said with her family’s support, “Everything will work out how it’s supposed to.”
Kim, who faced a media blitz as she left LAX Monday, called her trip down under "an escape” from the Southern California epicenter of her break-up.
Kim also addressed the critics in a statement on her website Tuesday in which she said, "There are also reports that I made millions of dollars off of the wedding. These reports are simply not true and it makes me so sad to have to even clarify this.”
