Yah, right.
Kardashian not only knew that Kanye was going to ask her, she even picked out her spectacular 15 carat diamond engagement ring herself, radaronline.com reported.
“Kim had picked out her own Lorraine Schwartz engagement ring,” a source close to the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star has revealed.
Also, Kimmie Cakes “told Kanye to get the ring from Lorraine Schwartz because she loves the jeweler’s diamonds. She knew the proposal was happening, she just didn’t know when it would happen.”
The source also told the blog that Kanye was determined to outdue Kardashian’s lame second husband, NBA star Kris Humphries, who dropped somewhere in the neighborhood of $200,000-$300,000 for the massive Lorraine Schwartz 16.2 carat diamond before he proposed to Kardashian in 2011.
Humphries was given a considerable discount because of the publicity surrounding the engagement. His ring was estimated to be worth $2 million. Of course, we soon learned that the marriage and wedding were shams. Humphries recently sold the ring at auction for $749,000.
With jeweler Schwartz, the source said, “Kanye got a significant deal on the ring just as Kris did because of all the publicity it will get. Before Kim gave the ultimate seal of approval on the sparkler, Kanye looked at over 20 diamonds. The diamond has no flaws and has more sparkle than Kim’s previous ring.”
Kardashian’s current engagement ring is worth approximately $3 million, jewelry experts estimate, but the jeweler let Kanye have it for a half-million dollars due to the publicity. He just wanted to make sure his was bigger than Humphries’ engagement ring, radaronline reported.
