To be honest, I thought the term "life partner" was curious enough that I wondered if there was a dude named Kim in his life.

He was married for a long time to a lovely lady who is Coby Karl's mother. Kim is a later significant other.

I won't lie, I also went "huh?" when I read life partner on the scroll during the game. Just because that's a term almost exclusively by gay couples.

Doesn't necessarily mean someone is not gay, but yeah, Kim's a woman.

wow i saw and asked myself the same thing man dont let people say its not a good question i was meaning to start investigating his sexuality hahaha

My wife opined that Kim probably took it upon herself to release information to the media, and probably identified herself as his "life-partner" at the time. Considering some of the details that she released, which I would personally find embarrassing for someone to share were I in Karl's position, it makes sense that she would be presumptuous enough to refer to herself in that way, and I think my better half has it right.

Upon further thought, it seems that a woman that refers to herself as a man's life partner is deluding herself because she hasn't gotten an engagement ring yet.

This question was legit and I remember wondering the same thing. Being that there is not another thread that is related to this, I think its acceptable that a thread was started. The only thing is that its not spurs related. Still.. there have been threads started that were much much worse! Self proclaimed thread police need to relax.
