Kim Kardashian claims she footed most of the bill for her own engagement ring from Kris Humphries.
In the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kim revealed that she paid for the majority of her $2 million ring, which Humphries later demanded back during their divorce.
Kim made this confession while chatting about her past engagement rings with sister Khloé and jeweler Lorraine Schwartz, according to Page Six.
“I didn’t keep that,” said Kim, 44. “I was pregnant with North [West], still married to him, and in order to divorce him, he said I had to give him the ring in my divorce.”
When Khloé reminded her that she had actually paid for most of it herself, Kim replied, “But I bought! He contributed a fifth [of the price].”
Humphries later auctioned the ring for $749,000 in 2013.
Kim mentioned she still has her first engagement ring from Damon Thomas, whom she was married to from 2000 to 2004.
She also keeps the 15-carat cushion cut ring from Kanye West, which she plans to give to their daughter North. A second 20-carat ring from Ye was stolen during her 2016 Paris robbery.
Kim and Kris married in 2011, with their relationship famously lasting just 72 days. Their divorce was finalized in 2013.
During a 2021 KUWTK reunion special, Kim apologized for breaking up with him “in the worst way,” explaining, “I thought, ‘OK, everyone, you know, we’re filming this for a TV show. If I leave, I’m going to be known as the runaway bride forever and it’s going to be a huge joke.'”
