Was Kim’s Diamond Engagement Ring Just A Publicity Stunt?

Sunday, November 13th, 2011

The world watched as Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries tied the knot. They were right there on the TV screen every step of the way right through the preparations, right through the wedding ceremony, right through the reception. It looked like a match made in heaven with the whole world watching. And then came the shocking news – they were splitting up after seventy-two days!

As news about the impending divorce flashed across the world, what everyone wanted to know was who would get the enormous diamond engagement ring worth with its 20 carat diamond. Would Kris ask for it back? Or would he be magnanimous and let her keep it? Finally the news leaked out that she was going to buy it off Kris because she loves diamonds and couldn’t bear to give it up. Now, news has filtered out that the very same ring was seen on Kim’s finger in pictures of way back 2007 when she bought the huge sparkler for herself. So was it all just a big charade? Did Kris just pick up the ring from Kim and then put it back on her finger?

There is speculation that the whole thing was set up by E! So was it just a melodrama acted out on the TV screen to satisfy the voyeuristic tendencies of millions of viewers? And what about the huge sponsorship deals that went into the wedding? Were they all fake too? Some viewers felt that the whole wedding was very staged and over-acted in parts. So maybe they are right after all. Maybe that is all it was and the divorce hopes to keep the whole piece of news very much in the public eye even today.

Will Kim Have To Pay For Her Engagement Ring?

Wednesday, November 9th, 2011

They really are providing so much fodder for the media grist. First, their high profile engagement and then the wedding. After that, the separation and now, the question of the engagement ring. Not just any old engagement ring but the huge rock that Kris Humphries got Kim Kardashian. It’s got a 20.5 carat diamond and though other women might not want a reminder of a marriage that ended so quickly, most people who know Kim say that she loves diamonds so much that she would love to keep the ring.
The thing is, there was a very, very detailed pre-nup when they got married and it includes the point that if they were to get divorced, she could buy the ring from him. There have been rumours that it was she who bought the huge diamond engagement ring because she was so particular about it being flawless and perfect. Maybe all she did was to choose it. Any which way, she gets to keep it – but she has to pay for it. That’s a lot of money to be paid but for Kim, she can well afford it. And anyway, there were a few nasty comments going around that they even got the ring at a huge discount.
The thing is, who added that clause to the pre-nup? Was it Kim or maybe it could have been Kris who insisted on it? After as all, it is a very expensive piece of jewellery and while Hugh Hefner might gift the engagement ring to his ex-fiancĂ©e, Kris doesn’t look like he would. Of course, he would never have expected his marriage to break down in such a short time. As for Kim, it looks like she is buying the ring and she seems hell-bent on collecting as many diamonds as she can.

Kim Kardashian Gets Rid Of Wedding Ring

Thursday, November 3rd, 2011

The celeb wedding of the year is over after precisely 72 days of marriage and the over-million pound diamond engagement ring and the wedding ring were conspicuously absent from Kim’s finger as she jetted off to Australia. The wedding between Kim and Kris Humphries was spectacular to say the least and was played out to the masses like one huge reality show. And now, a few months later, it’s all gone.
The trouble is, Kris Humphries doesn’t quite realise what has hit him and he doesn’t seem to be able to take it in that it’s all over. It could be because he isn’t wired in the usual Hollywood way – tied together today, free tomorrow with each one going his or her way. That really is the way the cookie crumbles in Celebrityville and unfortunately, he doesn’t seem to have learned the ropes as yet. His wedding ring seems to be off too and sources say he was seen moving out boxes from their New York hotel room. Of course, that fuelled the rumours – it was bound to.
Unfortunately, what also seems to be making the rounds are stories that it was all done for money. They had such a blast with so many sponsors and they made money out of every picture taken, every article written. Was that all it was? Has marriage become a money making racket? Most celebrities wouldn’t stoop to that so maybe it was just a case of not knowing each other well and rushing into it. According to his friends, Kris had no inkling she was going to file for divorce and he is shocked. Looks like most celebrity marriages don’t really stand a chance for one reason or another.

Kim And Kris Exchange Lorraine Schwatrz Wedding Rings

Monday, August 22nd, 2011

After the huge media blitz that followed her engagement, Kim Kardashian is finally married to Kris Humphries and the wedding ceremony which had over four hundred guests with many celebrities is being called the wedding of the year in America. Maybe reality stars are larger that life – whatever the reason, Kim’s life is usually under a microscope and the Kardashian sisters play to the gallery and live life king size. Like her engagement ring of 20.5 carats which is well over £1 million. It has an over 16 carat diamond and is flanked by two trapezoid diamonds and all the diamonds are of the best possible quality. Like the wedding rings, the engagement ring too was designed by Lorraine Schwartz.
The wedding was held in California and it was on a private estate. Kim wore a Vera Wang white wedding dress in Chantilly lace and her shoes were from Guiseppe Zanotti. She was given away by her step father and her sisters were maids of honour while her nephew was the ring bearer. Kris was in an Ermenegildo Zenga tuxedo.
Of course, the big question on everyone’s lips is, exactly how much money is the couple making from this wedding? There are the TV payments, the freebies and the photos sales. From what sources say, the gown, the cake and maybe even the rings were donated or sold at a discount to the couple. They were even paid to hold their bachelor and bachelorette parties. More money is expected at a supposed second wedding ceremony in ten days’ time. When you are as visible as these stars, sponsors just pay for every event in their life – and if that means a lack of privacy, neither Kim not Kris is complaining!

Kardashian Wedding Ring Special

Thursday, June 30th, 2011

Like her sister did before her, Kim Kardashian too, is going to have her wedding televised. The high profile reality show star is all set to have the exchange of her wedding rings and the entire ceremony filmed and she is in negotiations with E! to share her special moment with all her fans. Will she think it an intrusion into her privacy? We think not as she is so used to being a reality star and she probably does not notice those cameras any more.

The company E! is Ryan Seacrest’s and it looks like they are planning a two hour extravaganza and it will be featured as a special show on the network. For Kim, she feels the most important day of her life just has to be shared with all her loyal viewers. The Kardashian show is into its sixth season on American TV channels and it does not look like the ratings are going down any time soon. That’s why the executives at E! feel that the show is going to have gold ratings.

Kim Kardashian got engaged to Kris Humphries recently and she has been showing off her diamond engagement ring which is a huge piece of bling. It’s been flashing on her finger in all its dazzling glory and anyone who has or is getting engaged will no doubt have their ring compared to this huge rock.

Kim Gets A 20.5 Carat Engagement Ring

Monday, May 30th, 2011

That’s a lot of bling and dazzle for anyone to be carrying around but Kim’s got it and she means to flaunt it. Kris Humphries, NBA basketball player, put that ring on her finger and they are both so happy. We told you a few days ago that Kim would like to get married, that she feels she is ready and that she was looking at diamond rings. Well, Kris went out and got her the absolutely perfect engagement ring – no wonder she believes he is her perfect man.

The engagement ring has a 16.5 carat diamond in the centre which has an emerald cut and on either side are trapezoids, 2 carats each. Kris asked Lorraine Schwartz to design the ring and he said he wanted it to be really big. As we know now, it is. The designer has designed rings for many Hollywood celebrities. According to Kim, it really is the most beautiful thing she has seen.

The proposal was romantic too – he proposed at home, in their bedroom, spelling out ‘Will you marry me?’ with rose petals. Now what could be more romantic than that? Roses, a proposal and a huge diamond engagement ring! Kris Humphries sure knows how to make a woman say Yes. They say the ring is worth nearly half the value of her mansion at Beverly Hills and that’s mind boggling. They’ve been dating for just six months but obviously that is enough to let them know that this is love indeed.

Kim Kardashian Looking At Engagement Rings

Monday, May 16th, 2011

Are those diamond rings that Kim Kardashian has been seen looking at really a search for the right engagement ring? It could well be when it comes to the reality TV star. Apparently, she has been on a hunt for diamonds and she has been spotted at stores looking at diamonds. These diamonds and diamond rings that she is looking at are at the high end jewellery stores – naturally – and she seems to be spending quite a bit of time doing that. Maybe that’s why everyone is jumping to the conclusion that she is on the hunt for an engagement ring.

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries have been together for some months now and it looks like it is serious so that’s why the rumours have been flying around saying that there’s going to be an announcement soon. Apparently she has confided in people that he really is the one in her life and she’s just waiting to be his wife. She’s very open about the fact that she would like to get married and have kids soon and with Kris and her being so close, it looks like it is going to happen. She is thirty so we’re guessing that it has something to do with wanting to start a family soon.

Everyone who knows them says that she is different when she is with Kris and that they are both good together. There’s such a huge difference in height when it comes to these two – he towers above her but they seems so comfortable with each other. The New Jersey Nets star and the TV star seem to have an aura of togetherness about them so maybe that engagement ring will be in evidence soon.

Kim Kardashian Soon To Wear An Engagement Ring?

Friday, April 15th, 2011

Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian have been together just a couple of months but there is already talk of an impending engagement and an engagement ring. In fact, Kim has been talking about not just engagement rings but also wedding plans. According to her, even as little girls, women plan their weddings and she is no exception.

She told the magazine Life & Style that she has already decided just what she wants her wedding dress to look like. Why not, because she has thought about it for years and this means she’s just waiting to get married. Apparently she’s been telling her friends about her engagement ring as well. She wants jewellery designer Lorraine Schwartz who is also a close friend to design it for her. Lorraine designed a lot of the late Elizabeth Taylor’s jewellery and Kim is hoping that her engagement ring will be something in that timeless style. Maybe something like her Krupp diamond ring?

What’s more, Kim has gone a step further and is thinking of children too – obviously Humphries children. She would like three, maybe five kids and all of them, she hopes, will have names that begin with a K. A tradition that she hopes to keep alive for a while.

World’s Best Couple Wins Princess-Cut Diamond Ring

Saturday, January 1st, 2011

In the international competition that looked for the world’s best couple, the winners are a New Zealander and his wife who is US-born. The competition was open to people from the US, Canada, New Zealand and Australia. There were thousands of couples who entered – after all, who wouldn’t want to get a million dollar diamond ring on their finger?

The diamond ring was designed by Michael Hill Jewellers and it was they who thought of this global competition. After all, they said, they have been in this business of romance and love for so many years so why not give away something while creating a buzz around it? So they had Kim Kardashian wear the ring and travel around the world with it, promoting the competition. The ring has a princess cut 22-carat diamond and the competition designers hoped that whoever won it would treasure it and that it would be a symbol of a lasting love.

The competition involved a series of online tests and the couples also had supporters voting for them. In the end, Cameron and Shariyah Morris were the winners and they are thrilled. The final judging was done by a panel and on that panel was the Sex and the City author as well - Candace Bushnell. There were six couples that figured in the final and this winning couple are so thankful for the incredible online support that they got.

Is Kim Buying Herself An Engagement Ring?

Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009

She’s come straight out and said what many women might have wanted to say but didn’t. It just makes it easier to shop for one’s own diamond engagement ring. Then there are no surprises – unpleasant or otherwise. So when Kim Kardashian was seen shopping for engagement rings, there was no sign of Reggie Bush anywhere around.

Km had already told her sisters exactly what she wanted for an engagement ring just in case Reggie were to ask them. However, it does not look like Reggie has been out shopping for one so she seems to be the one doing the looking around and she says she has emailed him telling him which ones she liked. Maybe she has bought one already. You never know as she was spotted driving around wearing a huge sure-to-be-at-least-7-carat rock on her right hand. So maybe all it takes is for Reggie to take it off that finger and put it on her left? Now that is one great easy way to get engaged.

Did Kim Kardashian Find A Diamond Engagement Ring In Her Dessert?

Monday, October 20th, 2008

Are footballer Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian engaged? Or was it just a rumour? It all began when someone posted up the news on Facebook and then there was no stopping it. Even Kim’s publicist thought it was true and called them up so he could congratulate them.

Kim, in true Hollywood style has hotly denied the rumours. She just could not imagine how anyone could start a rumour like this especially as she says she does not have a presence in Facebook.

Well, here’s how the story – or rather the rumour goes. Apparently the couple were out dining together and Reggie slipped the diamond engagement ring into her dessert. What the Facebook story asked was what would have happened if she had unwittingly swallowed it. They had a point there! Only Kim says that the Facebook page was false. Time, in true Hollywood tradition, is sure to tell.
