Kim was just 18 years old when she met Damon, who is 10 years her senior. During an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kim finally opened up about their marriage and admitted to being high on ecstasy when they exchanged vows.
"I did ecstasy once and I got married. I did it again, I made a sex tape. Like, everything bad would happen," she explained. The mother-of-four explained how she went through a "wild phase" in her late teens. Damon was furious with her comments and suggested Kim should be "more responsible with those statements".
"I think it's unfair to make those kinds of blanket statements because we have kids now, you know? I have children. My kid goes to the same school her kid goes to. So imagine him when he has to deal with that at school," he told YouTube channel VladTV.
Damon added: "Because it happened in the past, you can try to sweep it under the rug, but you don’t stay married to somebody or be with somebody for four to five years and it’s just based off you getting high off of ecstasy, you know what I mean? That doesn’t make sense at all."
