Reality TV star Kim Kardashian suffered domestic violence at the hands of her ex-husband Damon Thomas, according to allegations in newly uncovered court papers.

The socialite, who is back in the U.S. after a promotional visit to Australia, claimed the music producer repeatedly beat her and demanded to know where she was at every minute of the day.

Kim, now 29, eloped to Las Vegas, and married Thomas, now 39, in January 2000 - when she was just 19. They split three years later.



Thomas's controlling personality is laid bare by Kim in the couple's divorce papers, which were filed at Los Angeles Superior Court back in 2003.

According to the documents, Thomas would punch her in the face, slam her against walls and throw her across the room, leaving her bruised and battered.

His alleged bullying was so terrible he gave her $3,650 to get liposuction because he wanted her to be 'perfect' - then gave her an additional $1,000 for further surgery.

Thomas, who has worked with artists such as Lionel Richie and Pink, even forced Kim to quit jobs and college, poisoned her mind against her own family and would not let her see her friends, the papers claim.

'Damon decided what we would do and when we would do it. He was very much the "King of the castle",' she said.

At the time of their quickie Vegas wedding she was working as a sales girl at a Los Angeles shop called Body, but her new husband soon made her quit the job.
