Kim Kardashian Spills the Beans on Kris Humphries Engagement Ring Drama; Says He Only ‘Contributed a Fifth’ of the Cost

Reflecting on my past, I can’t help but recount the brief union I shared with Kris Humphries, the basketball star. During our courtship, I was the one who covered the cost of our extravagant engagement ring, a fact that I now openly acknowledge. However, post our divorce, he chose to reclaim it.

In the most recent installment of The Kardashians series, Kim reflected on her past marriages while conversing with her sister Khloe during their attendance at a lavish Indian billionaire’s wedding. Kim recalled the moment when Humphries proposed to her, presenting an extravagant 18-carat emerald-cut diamond ring, skillfully crafted by renowned jeweler Lorraine Schwartz.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but ponder about Kim Kardashian‘s next ring design, especially since she mentioned it could be her last and final one. Looking back at her marital history, I recall that her first ring was a stunning cushion cut, set in 14-karat gold, a gift from her first husband, Damon Thomas.

Later on, it was casually mentioned by Skims’ creator that Humphries contributed about one-fifth of the total cost for the engagement ring, while she took care of the remaining amount.

The television personality who appears on reality shows additionally disclosed that she didn’t hold onto the ring for a substantial period. In their divorce proceedings, Humphries requested its return from her. She stated, “I didn’t retain it. At that time, I was pregnant with [daughter] North [West], still married to him, and in order to finalize our divorce, he said I needed to give him the ring.

The news left her friend and hairstylist Chris Appleton astonished, as he labeled Kanye “ruthless” for taking back a ring that Kim had predominantly covered the cost of. “He chipped in a fifth,” she clarified.

In the year 2011, Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries tied the knot in an extravagant wedding that was broadcast for all to see. However, their union lasted just 72 days before they parted ways. While Kim doesn’t often speak about their high-profile relationship, this season had a playful moment where she jokingly accused Khloe of reaching out to her ex.

In one episode of their reality show, when Khloe mentioned she’d run into her former spouse, Lamar Odom, Kim jokingly suggested, “Perhaps I should give Kris Humphries a ring?” The founder of Good American then chuckled and proposed the idea of inviting all their past husbands for a get-together.

All the latest episodes of The Kardashians are available to stream on Hulu.
