Kris Jenner Says Kim Kardashian Shouldn't Have To Give Her Engagement Ring Back

Divorce is messy even in the best of cases, but when you add cameras, producers, a $2 million engagement ring and the Kardashians in to the mix, it's a full fledged three-ring circus.

Ever since Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from husband Kris Humphries on October 31, everyone wants to know will she keep the presents and will she have to give that enormous ring back?

Mom and Kardashian family manager Kris Jenner appeared on "Fox and Friends" this morning to promote her new memoir "Kris Jenner ... And All Things Kardashian," and she told the show she doesn't think Kim should have to give back her 20.5 carat engagement ring.

"This is the first time I'm hearing that," she told the hosts when asked about the rumors. "That's between them -- a gift is a gift. If you look at the etiquette books, it says keep a present. But I don't think Kim is as concerned about that as else. I don't think it's about the gifts or the money, it's about what she's feeling. It's about two people and how their lives are changing."

The new author who couldn't have picked a better time to launch a publicity tour for her book, told the show the family isn't thinking about "frivolous" things like that. "It's a big deal and a very expensive item but it's not something Kim is thinking about."

The fact that the marriage only lasted 72 days seems suspect to most, but Jenner vehemently denies that they made any money off the wedding, saying that reported figures are "completely inaccurate, false and ridiculous."

"The thought that it's a sham, and the media keeps perpetuating this," she pleaded. "Stop. It's not a sham. It's somebody in a lot of pain."

As for the wedding gifts, the Dream Foundation, which grants wishes to adults facing life-threatening illnesses, confirmed that Kim will make a donation to the organization that will be representative of the presents she received from her short-lived marriage.


At least Kim look stylish during those 72 days of marriage. Check out her looks below:

"That's between them -- a gift is a gift. If you look at the etiquette books, it says keep a present." A hooker is a lady that gets paid for sex. If you look at the etiquette books it says once you pay a hooker, she keeps the money.

the gifts should be returned and the ring given back to the groom. She left the marriage not him. Fair is Fair. She seems like she is greedy. Believe me the public will turn on her in a minute if she gets too greedy. She seems like she has gotten her way all of her life. Time to look in the mirror lady and see a grown woman instead of a little spoiled girl.

I always thought the engagement ring stood for a "promise"...Then the wedding ring comes and turns the set into something beautiful and life long...LOL, well, more than a few of us found that marriage was not life long. I was once engaged to a man for a year. I fell out of love with him and I gave the beautiful ring back to him. I broke the agreement, or the promise. I do not believe for a minute that there is no discussion about a two million dollar ring. Perhaps if she sold it and used the money to finance a home for orphans, or lost kids or abused women, something that had a meaning, it would look much better. I think the public has contributed enough time and energy to this family. It is time for Kim to get a job and that goes for her Mom...I feel sorry for the Jenner kids. .peace

The pic in the silver dress is exactly why people refer to them as the fat a$$anian clan. She's not pretty - her sisters are - she's not and neither is her mom. Bless the heart of Bruce Jenner - he must be doing penence for horrible sins to be stay with them. Maybe with his genes, the younger girls will be better - they can't get any worse!

I wrote 2 months ago that Kris Humphries was too good for Kim K. If this marriage was all about love, there would be no question that the proper thing to do after a 72 day marriage is to give the 2 million dollar engagement ring back to Kris Humphries. he gave it to her in good faith, with his heart on his sleeve, and she ripped his heart out by divorcing and not even telling the guy. She owes him that much. With all the Kardashian Kash, she doesn't need to keep this expensive ring.Also, all we hear from her mother is about her feelings, what about Kris's feelings. No one ever talks about him. From having watched her show in the past I can tell that Kim Kardashian has no idea what real love is. Why on earth did she even marry a man that obviously she doesn't love. Let's hope that Kris Humphries meets a nice girl in Minnesota, someone who is down to earth like him. I love the slap in the face that Kris jenner got from Joy Behar when she asked for her wedding gift back, so funny and to try and eliminate more embarrassment, Kris Jenner gave her 2 Cuisinarts.

I wish there was a way to tell this women and family members to GO AWAY.....how old is she ? time to grow up and get your head out of the sand. I wonder who will fall in her claws next.....and I'm so tired of hearing people say how sweet she is....

shame on mama K

Mama is only worried about her 10%, not what is the right thing to do. No wonder the girls are all about the money...

shame on ma ma K

I've also heard that she paid for the ring herself; that his salary wouldn't be enough to afford it. And I doubt too many people consider an engagement ring a "gift"; it's a sign of commitment, which she bowed out of.

If that's true, then she should keep it. Frankly, I don't think that's the case. Even Mama called it a "gift" that Kim should keep. Really, Mama? It was a $2 million engagement ring which she accepted with the promise of marriage, not a birthday present. As for all of the K family denials, why are they wasting their breath? Maybe if they say it enough times they'll believe it themselves!

The joke is on us. We're the ones that are so obsessed with following their lives :D IF we didn't , then they're ratings would drop. But no, we encourage this, and your wish is their command: they'll just keep creating more drama :D
