Kim Kardashian Claims Kris Humphries Wouldn’t Divorce Her Until She Returned 20.5-Carat Engagement Ring That She “Bought”: “He Contributed A Fifth”

Kim Kardashian is revealing some shocking new information about her infamous 72-day marriage to former NBA player Kris Humphries.

The most recent episode of The Kardashians Season 6 is called “Kim and Khloé Take India.” In this episode, Kim discusses how she had to give back her 20.5-carat engagement ring to Humphries during their divorce, despite having paid for most of it.

During the Ambani wedding in India, where she was adorned with dazzling diamonds, Kim reflects on whether she should start wearing her expensive jewelry again. Following a traumatic robbery at gunpoint in her Paris hotel room in 2016, the Skims founder had refrained from showcasing her own diamonds in public.

The reality star, who has been married and divorced three times, then wonders what her “next ring shape will be.”

“My last and final hurrah,” Kim jokes, referring to her potential fourth marriage.

When reminiscing about her assortment of engagement rings, Kim mentions that she still possesses the 14-carat cushion-cut ring from her first spouse, Damon Thomas. She tied the knot with the 28-year-old music producer when she was just 19, but the marriage fell apart as he filed for divorce after almost four years.

In 2011, Kim got engaged to Humphries after six months of dating. He proposed with a 20.5-carat emerald-cut diamond she bought from jewelry designer Lorraine Schwartz that was reportedly valued at a staggering $2 million. What’s more shocking than the fact that their marriage only lasted 72 days, however, is that Humphries demanded the ring back when they finalized their divorce in 2013 even though Kim allegedly footed the bill.

“I didn’t keep that [ring],” she says in The Kardashians. “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 — that I bought. He contributed a fifth.”

Humphries ultimately auctioned off the ring for $749,000 with plans to donate the proceeds to charity.

As for her third engagement ring (a 15-carat cushion-cut diamond), gifted to her by her ex-husband and the father of her four children Kanye West, Kim says she’s saving it for her eldest daughter, North West, because she was there for the engagement.

New episodes of The Kardashians drop on Wednesdays at 9 p.m. PT and Thursdays at midnight ET on Hulu.
