Her marriage lasted just 72 days, but Kim Kardashian is set to keep her $2 million engagement ring.NBA star Kris Humphries was hoping to get the 20.5 carat diamond back from his now estranged wife, according to sources.
However, Kim's mother and manager Kris Jenner, 55, has nixed the idea.
'It’s a gift - you keep a gift,' Jenner, the shrewd matriarch of the Kardashian clan, told Good Morning America while promoting her new memoir.
The phrase, which is considered by some to be offensive to American Indians, describes a person who gives a present and later wants it back.
And the comment has enraged many, with a spokesperson for the largest American Indian and Alaska Native organization in the country, The National Congress of American Indians labeling the remark ‘wrong and hurtful.’
Jenner hopes her daughter will soon heal from her heartache.
'Kim hasn’t been the Kim I know,' Jenner said. 'She seemed worried, not her happy self. I want Kim back - I want her to be happy.'
Jenner has previously insisted that reports of Kim making a large profit from the wedding - a rumoured $10 million - were false.
In a message on her blog on Tuesday, Kim said she 'donating the money for all the gifts to the Dream Foundation.'
Kim today cut short her money-spinning visit to Australia to deal with the fall-out from the split.
The reality TV star pulled out of a lucrative appearance at an Australian horse racing event at the 11th hour and will jet back to the U.S. today.
The 31-year-old was set to attend the Swisse vitamins marquee at Saturday's Stakes Day as part of Melbourne's annual spring carnival.
