With just a couple of days to go until the premiere of a new season of “Kourtney and Kim Take New York,” a new preview video has emerged online. It seems to confirm earlier speculation that Kris Humphries bullied Kim Kardashian for her weight.

Just yesterday, word got out online that one of the reasons Kim filed for divorce from Kris after just 72 days was that she found him to be a bully and a jerk only after they tied the knot.

Reports in the media say there's footage of Kris bullying Kim for her petite and curvy figure, for gaining some weight and even for her trademark plump backside.

The preview obtained by Us Weekly seems to hint that there's some truth to the reports. You can see it here.

“Packing to move to New York City after returning from their tropical honeymoon, Humphries, 26, and Kardashian, 31, are affectionate while planning their trip, but Humphries just couldn't resist taking a quick jab at Kardashian's famous figure,” the magazine writes.

Indeed, the video sees Kris jesting about his wife's weight but, in all fairness, she doesn't seem to mind because it doesn't look like Kris is being mean on purpose. He's just joking around.

“This outfit is so cute,” he tells her, trying to take a camera from her hands. He then takes her in her arms, which is when he exclaims, “God, you ate a lot of wedding cake!”

The video doesn't even hint that Kim was upset at the remark, but sources close to her are telling Us that, shortly after the wedding, Kris made a habit of putting his wife down in front of other people.

“He belittled her in front of people. He'd call her stupid. It was truly sickening,” says an insider.

This was one of the reasons Kim wanted to end the marriage so abruptly, without as much as going to counseling to see if it could be saved.

The second season of Kourtney and Kim Take New York premieres on E! on November 27.
