Kim Kardashian generous purple & black bikini curves on the Miami beach

It's fair to say that 2011 was Kim Kardashian's 'annus horribilis'.

Last year the golden girl of reality television saw her star plummet dramatically as her brief marriage saw her criticised for taking the concept of reality TV too far.

It's not over for the 31-year-old yet, either, as she is staring down the barrel of messy divorce proceedings after her ex-husband Kris Humphries, 27, refused to settle out of court.

He is also, according to several sources including Life and Style magazine, planning to file a complaint against Kim's mother, Kris Jenner.

Humphries is also said to have petitioned to have his Minnesota-licensed attorney practice in California, so appears to be bringing the battle to her doorstep.

So who could blame the brunette for wanting to get away for a bit?

And that's exactly what she did with best friend Jonathan Cheban a few days ago.

The pair headed off to Miami for some rest and relaxation.

And if Kim looked pensive, even haunted at times, she made up for it by sizzling in a selection of simple and beautifully flattering bikinis.

She seemed happy to be spotted in tasteful swimwear but according to Life and Style, Kim is devastated that by not settling out of court, Kris has opened their divorce up to the cameras.

California allows filming as part of an open policy on popular cases.

A source told the magazine: 'Kim's freaking out, she has no interest in dragging out the divorce or having it play out on TV.

'Believe or not she's a private person.'

'All of her dirty laundry will be aired, and there is a lot to air,' the mole continued.

Kris wants to prove that Kim never intended to marry him and therefore committed fraud.

Jonathan may have to testify in court, he revealed: 'I hope it doesn't come down to that but I'll do what I need to do.'
