The INSIDER Summary:

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were friends for years before they famously began dating. But Kardashian finally revealed the moment that they turned their friendship into something more.
During the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" 10th anniversary special, Kardashian told host Ryan Seacrest that she and West's relationship turned romantic right before her infamous 72-day marriage to basketball player Kris Humphries.
Despite her doubts about the marriage, she said that she still feels like she had to go through with the marriage to get clarity on what she wanted with West.
"Right before I got married to Kris Humphries we were talking and I just went a different direction," she said. "I think I had to go through that to figure out what I wanted."
After her marriage with Humphries ended, Kardashian said that West invited her to come stay with him in Paris where he was holding a fashion show.
"After my break up I was feeling really low and down and he was like 'Just come to Paris and see my fashion show,'" Kardashian revealed. "He jokes that he put on this whole fashion show just to get a date with me."
This was the moment, Kardashian said, she knew that West was the one she wanted to be with. She said that they began dating during the trip, and the rest is history.
"I went and I stayed with him and that's where we started dating," she said. "I swear from the moment I landed and was there, I fell madly in love with him and I thought 'Oh my god, why didn't I do this sooner? This is like what real life is like and love and fun and real support. This is what it is.'"
It's great to hear that things worked out well for Kardashian and West, despite an unlikely beginning to their relationship. Although going through a highly-publicized, short-lived marriage is hardly ideal, Kardashian's feeling of love and support from West during that time is wonderful to hear.
