The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star and the
rapper claim the billionaire 'manipulated' his way into AT
and T Park in San Francisco and released unauthorised
footage of the moment the 'New Slaves' hitmaker proposed
to her on her 33rd birthday on October 21. According to
court documents, obtained by TMZ, the couple is accusing
Hurley of scheming to post the video of the intimate
moment on his new Internet venture, MixBit.
Their lawyer Eric George also trashes the entrepreneur,
claiming Hurley is desperate to find a 'second act' because
two of his other businesses have flopped since he sold
YouTube for $1.65 billion. It was previously reported that
Kanye invited Kim's close family and friends, along with
several well known Silicon Valley founders to watch his
surprise proposal, but Hurley wasn't invited and they only
let him stay after he signed a confidentiality agreement.
They attached a picture of him holding the agreement to the
lawsuit, which also states: 'Hurley proceeded to try to turn
the event into one starring himself, broadcasting the images
he knew were the exclusive property rights of someone
else.'
The couple is suing Hurley for unspecified damages and
claim the footage was intended to be shown on MC Cable
Television, which is an arm of Bunim/Murray and E!,
which produces and broadcasts Kim's reality show.
