The Real Tea Behind the Ring Drama
Kim didn’t hold back when discussing the drama. “I didn’t keep that,” she told Khloé while reminiscing about her engagement ring from Humphries. She revealed that during their divorce, Kris demanded the ring back, claiming it was a condition to finalize their split. “I was pregnant with North, still married to him, and in order to divorce him, he said I had to give him the ring in my divorce,” Kim said.
And here’s the kicker—Kim Kardashian says Kris Humphries only paid a fifth of the cost for the ring. The stunning 18-karat emerald-cut diamond ring was designed by renowned celebrity jeweler Lorraine Schwartz, who was also present during the conversation. Schwartz added her thoughts on the matter, noting that it was best that Kim gave it back, as PEOPLE reported.

And if you’re wondering, yes—Kris did auction off the ring post-divorce for a reported $749,000, far less than the original price tag but still a hefty sum.
