Not only is Kim Kardashian entitled to keep the 20.5-carat, $2 million (€1.45 million) ring, but she will actually do so. Kim's mother Kris Jenner tried to avoid answering the question the other day, but she chose to answer it on Good Morning America.
As anyone who's been keeping up with the Kardashians must already know, while Kim and Khloe are in Australia, Jenner is promoting her book in the US and, at the same time, talking to the media about what went wrong in her daughter's marriage.
In interviews earlier this week, Jenner offered a non-committal answer about the ring, offering plenty of room for tabloid speculation – with most media outlets saying she will most likely keep the bauble.
On GMA, Kris set the record straight, as the video below will confirm.
Asked about the massive rock, Jenner said, “You know, I hate an Indian giver. It’s a gift – you keep a gift.”
While this doesn't come as a surprise, it does bring to the table (again) a very interesting discussion / conspiracy theory.
It could very well be that Kris Humphries, Kim's husband for 72 days and lover for exactly one year, never bought the Lorraine Schwartz-designed piece in the first place because Kim paid for it.
SandraRose claims many of its users noticed a striking similarity between the ring Kim got in 2011 and the one she was wearing in 2009, when she supposedly went out and bought an engagement ring to pressure Reggie Bush into marrying her.
Photos of the two baubles do reveal the similarity: for all we know, they could be one and the same.
“Kim has pressured every man she’s ever met to marry her. So I wouldn’t put it past her to take lighten the load on Humphries’ wallet by trotting out the ring she already bought for herself years ago,” SandraRose writes.
Go here to see photos of the rock – and let us know what you make of the controversy: did Kim recycle her own ring for the marriage to Kris Humphries?
Kris Jenner is full of you know what. If she(Kim) bought the ring for herself she should keep it. If Kris Humphries bought it she should GIVE IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She does not deserve it.
In NY State, the ring is a "contract" to get married and once the receiver has "performed" (got married), it is the receiver/spouse's personal property to keep, legally. Of course, this is vastly simplified and there are different judges doing different things when the marriage has not occurred and the ex-fiance wants the ring back, then there is the marital law issues regarding property, prenups, etc.
I'm personally tired of hearing about Kim's 72 day marriage. I like the show and watch it but enough is enough. We have people starving all over the world and our economy if falling apart. Heck our country is falling apart who cares about Kim & Kris's 72 day marriage!
If Kim bought the ring.....then she should keep it, otherwise .....give it back. This should be the END of the Kardashians......too many people making $$$$ off of reality shows that aren't 'real' anyway. How much do we really need to know?????
Well in most cases the ring is a gift is a gift but 72 hours it clear Kim could buy her own rings so why not give it back to Kris. Maytbe he could return being the jewelery knows them personelly maybe he could get in 2-Million back I mean they may not mean much to Kimy but is sure does to some of us. Kim come on the ring doesn't mean anything to you so out of any respect you may have had for Kris why don't you do the right thing and give Kris is ring back. It doesn't mean anything to you and you certainly proved that his feeling sure didn't. Buy your own ring maybe you will get more satisfication out of purchaseing your own.

I think it's a shame the media is not more interested in reporting on higher quality subjects instead of someone with a foolish, extravagant life style.

If Kim bought the ring, I have no comment. If the ring was given to her by the groom, it was NOT just a gift. The engagement ring symbolizes a contract to marry a person who gives it to you. Kim is the one who made a joke, a mockery out of the marriage, who pulled the plug on it before the wedding gifts were opened, so the ring should go back to the groom.
I think it's wrong of Kim to keep the ring. The ring was something special giving to her when she agreed to spend her life with him. However she broke their union so she shouldn't get to keep it. If she hadn't been the one to want the divorce- and to be so entirely vane on it with all the publicity she made for herself doing it not to mention she wanted to do it right on Halloween. I can see why so many people question if she was in it because she loved him or for all the publicity? It looks like she has she really didn't love him as she claims. Besides everyone knows that the Kardashian clan are gold diggers- her soon to be ex-husband is in the NBA lockout and she doesn't want to pay anything - nor does she want to give the ring back. Finally, you have a man that actually wants to marry you, and be a part of the horrible family you make yourselves on TV, and have to deal with all the drama and all those other little quirks, and less than tasteful behavior and the other down falls you make for yourselves. She may have all the money, but has that destroyed her? How many failed marriages does she need to have in order for her to see the real picture here?
Why would Kim want to keep the engagement ring if she feels the way she does about Kris? It;'s all about MONEY MONEY MONEY! Can't she just give the darn ring back to him? That money of hers should just keep her nose out of her daughters business!
The Kardashians, are all bussiness. They used Kris, as a bussiness weapons, shows and vanity.She wanted badly have a big wedding only for the show...There was not love att all...

It is "proper etiquette" and customary for Girls to return all engagement rings if you, the female, broke it off. (If he broke it off ... you keep it.) Unless Kim ... bought and paid for it herself ?

if she bought they ring she should keep it. If he bought it she needs to give it BACK. The ring symbolizes committment. She was not committed at all. GIVE IT BACK KIM what do you need it for.
of course she bought the ring. Every time Kim brought up buying anything, Kris came unglued. Like the house she wanted him to look at and he he didn't want to. The guy isn't even in the same league as Kim is financially.
Did anybody think she would do different , why don't they sell the ring and donate proceeds to charity , because they are trash with money . Everything about this family is wrong , Dad sells his soul for money , girls marry , pose nude and then cry foul , just about anything for money . Mom is allready getting the young ones prepped for the family buisness . On their show they allways talk of working really hard , they couldn't han dle a day of real work .
Kim K. and her family are as fake as a wooden nickle. Anyone that falls for the "I'm so hurt its over. It was real love and I truly loved him." lines need their head examined and should really really condsider getting a life. This has been nothing but a shame and I believe that the ring was never bought by Kris H. but by E!. Also, she may have made no money immediately from this farse but, she will with an increase in public apperances and viewers of her misguided adventures in TV.

Again, totally sick of these people. Let's add them to the banks list that people are protesting. All the K. family sees are $$ signs, so let's turn our medial channels off and ignore their drama. Kris H. is * lucky to be rid of this family and now he can find a nice girl (that does not have porn on the web) that he can spend his life with get with the real things that matter in this life and forget the K. family. Start the movement and stop all media n the K. Family, that are nothing and I mean nothing.

OMG!! Did that idiot say "Indian giver???" LOL...once again they prove that we are all retarded for paying any attention to that circus. What a waste of time. I can't even believe I'm writing this...

I always thought there was something strange about this relationship. They were not very affectionate to each other. Also, a I watched the show about the days before the wedding, I was surprised to see how much they were fighting (he does not seem to be very mature). She was already looking very
stressed. I never thought this was going to work. I think that she is a beautiful, succesful woman and should wait for a man equal to her.
humphries is lucky to get out of this debacle, run quickly, don't look back, count your blessings, being around that gang of self-promoting rags had to be hell, forget the ring, write it off, you at least have a talent, what do they have?

This girl and her family should be ashamed of themselves because the * the are putting out of their mouths is sooooo deep. And here in Baltimore parents and young teen girls are boycotting Sears to get rid of the Kardashian clothes and will picket in front of every sears on Black Friday all across Maryland, DC and VA. And this was started because a group of young girls felt that Kim is a fake and her values are sick. She knew as they said that she would of got more respect if she just would have cancelled the wedding. And after watching the 2 day shame show it was right there in color. As one 16 year old said " come on no cars for Kris's family really funny. So when the young girls came to us and said they want to show how they really feel and that with their Facebook they have friends and family in Md., DC and VA that on Black Friday they will pickit all Sears Stores and another group jumped on and said they want to picket at QVC and run a public ad. I am so proud to see these young women are showing they can not be fooled that easy. Tracey N. Baltimore , Md
