(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries still "frequently" speak with each other.

Kim filed for divorce from Kris on October 31 after being married for less than 72 days.

The pair are currently on speaking terms despite their high-profile split.

"Kim and Kris have spoken on the telephone, and are frequently exchanging text messages on their BlackBerrys," a source told RadarOnline.

Kim cut short her tour of Australia earlier today, pulling out of scheduled appearances in the country to focus on her personal life. The reality star is shattered by the separation.

"Kim is absolutely numb and was truly surprised and shocked at the backlash she has gotten since she decided to file for divorce," the source went on.

Although Kim and Kris are talking to each other, there is little hope that they will reconcile. The pair are coming to terms with reality.

"It's highly unlikely that Kim would want to get back together with Kris. Kris is in Minnesota, and the more time that goes on, Kim clearly sees that they are just two completely different people, that never should have gotten married. Even though Kris said earlier in the week he would do whatever it would take to save his marriage, he is now accepting that the relationship is over," the source said.

Kim is travelling back to Los Angeles. She has heeded the advice of her loved ones.

"[Kim] has been told by her friends that she needs to put herself first, for a change. Her friends are concerned about her, and are urging her to take some much needed time off, away from the spotlight to process what has happened," the insider explained.

Kim and Kris' divorce is expected to be finalised next spring. (C) Cover Media
