Not sure we buy this sccop, but X17 Online tattles believe the three-year-old sex tape that shot Kim Kardashian to online infamy was also the driving force in the sex symbol socialite’s recent split from NFL star Reggie Bush.
Kim Kardashian was best known as the BFF of Paris Hilton and daughter of famed lawyer Robert Kardashian before her skin flick with crooner/VH1 star Ray-J Norwood hit the web in early 2007.
Insiders say the New Orleans Saints running back — who has been romantically-linked to at least three other women during his relationship with Kardashian — refused to marry the anxious-to-wed Kim because footage of her romp with Ray made his conservative mother uneasy.
“Reggie’s mom just could not get over the fact that Kim had a sex tape. Reggie and his family are very conservative, and he told Kim that a marriage is never going to happen between them because of the tape,” a source told X17 Online.
Although the buxom brunette has managed to build a successful reality series and a fashion and style empire based on the notoriety she gained from the video, Kim believes that she still would be with Reggie had the tape never been publicized.
“She’s still crazy about him. If she didn’t have the sex tape, she could have been Mrs. Bush….”
