The 31-year-old reality TV star married 26-year-old basketball player Kris Humphries on 20 August in California, in a wedding that reportedly cost around $10m.
The news first broke on website TMZ, claiming that she was going to cite "irreconcilable differences in her filing".
The news was confirmed on Twitter by Ryan Seacrest, the producer of the show that made her famous, Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
"Yes @kimkardashian is filing for divorce this morning. I touched base with her, getting a statement in just a few mins," he tweeted.
Earlier this month there had been reports that Kim and Kris' marriage was in trouble, but the announcement of a divorce has still come as a shock to the showbiz world. Various sources had claimed they were not getting along and that married life was proving difficult for the couple.
The couple had married after a whirlwind romance: they had only been dating since November 2010.
