A caller asked the 45-year-old if he ever heard from his ‘ex’ Kardashian West, 39, after he and Kelly Ripa chose her and Humphries’ wedding looks for their 2011 costumes.

He recounted the awkward situation: ‘That was an interesting one, because I was hosting with Kelly and we played Kim and Kris Humphries at the time.

‘I was on stilts and the whole thing. And then maybe 20 minutes after we wrapped the show, they announced their divorce.’

Kardashian West and Humphries’ short marriage started with their August 20 wedding, which was broadcast as a two-part special on E!

Lachey told Cohen: ‘She left about halfway through and went to the restroom, and then shockingly, there were 25 paparazzi when we left the theater. I think there were other things in play on our little rendezvous.’
