Kim Kardashian may have thought her days of Kris Humphries drama were over, but she might want to think again.

The latest scandal to emerge about the brunette beauty involves an affair that Kim Kardashian allegedly had with a convict while still married to her former beau Kris Humphries.

The convict in question is Andrey Hicks, who is also claiming to be Humphries' former friend.

In 2012, the Daily Mail reports that Hicks was sentenced to 40 months in jail for stealing close to $2.3 million from his alleged former friend Kris Humphries, and from other investors.

Earlier this week, Hicks sent Perez Hilton's website an email that he claims was written by Kim Kardashian herself.

In the email, Kardashian writes about having an affair with Hicks in Monaco prior to her wedding with Humphries. She later describes the alleged affair as a "mistake."

Hicks later writes his side of the story in the email, describing the shame he felt after "hooking up" with his "new friend's fiance."

"I'm not exactly a good human being, I came to terms with that long before prison came along, but I'd like to think I was above hooking up with my friends new fiance. Well, I wasn't. So, I did what any warm blooded man would do when he's got Kim Kardashian pressed up against him. I went for it," Hicks wrote. [The Daily Mail]

So what is Kim's response to the alleged email?

Well, Kim is getting her lawyers involved.

Kim Kardashian's lawyer, Marty Singer, is hitting back at Hicks' allegations and claiming that his email is fabricated and the alleged affair is not true.

TMZ reports that Singer has since mailed Hicks a nasty letter calling him "a swindling convict and a liar" as well as noting that Hicks has even called himself a "greedy capitalist who went to jail for a greedy scheme."

Singer also slammed Hicks for claiming to have a PHD in mathematics before concluding the letter with a challenge for Hicks to take a polygraph test to confirm the affair allegations as false.
