Kanye West can easily be one of the greatest rappers of all time, with his slew of record-breaking albums. On the other hand, with Yeezy, the artist, is also a big name in the fashion world as well. While his professional life has been on the rise, his personal life, on the other hand, has always been a topic of contention. The rapper is currently married to Bianca Censori and was previously married to television personality Kim Kardashian.
The duo’s marriage came crashing down in 2022, and West went all out to make several accusations against her publicly. But before this relationship took a turn for the worse, the rapper made sure to give Kardashian several high-valued gifts. In this article, we will take a closer look at the top 6 items that West has gifted Kardashian during their marriage.
6) Kanye West Proposed Kim Kardashian With a $2 Million Engagement Ring
Apart from his record-breaking rap songs, Kanye West was a true romantic at heart when he got down on one knee to propose to Kim Kardashian. The ring was not an ordinary one and was a jaw-dropping 15-carat diamond ring specially designed by Lorraine Schwartz.
This unforgettable proposal took center stage in October 2013, at San Francisco’s AT&T Park and was only the beginning when it came to West’s grand gestures.
The background of this grand night featured a beautiful display of fireworks, and surely it made huge headlines.
5) A $1 Million Diamond “Push Present” for Kim Kardashian
In a sarcastic manner, Kim Kardashian had hinted that she should get a “push present” when she was pregnant with the couple’s second child Saint. She detailed the same on her website and added that she’d love to have a diamond choker from Lorraine Schwartz. But she was unsure if it was too costly of a present to ask for.
Her husband at the time surely didn’t think so, and after the birth of Saint, surprised her with the same exact choker that she wanted. The jewelry was marked at a staggering $1 million and was just one of many things that the iconic rapper was ready to do for his wife before their relationship turned sour.
4) Kim Kardashian’s $4.5 Million Upgraded Engagement Ring
Seems like even the $2 million engagement ring was not enough for the socialite, when West decided to level up the game, and upgrade her engagement ring. This time he went for a 20-carat emerald-cut diamond ring, also designed by Lorraine Schwartz priced at $4. 5 million.
But sadly, this was one of many items that were stolen during the Paris robbery later that year.
3) A Million Dollar Cheque as a “Thank You”
In the year 2018, during an interview, Kim Kardashian revealed that a competitor of Yeezy offered her a million dollars for an Instagram post. Her husband at the time obviously didn’t want her to do it as he felt that the said brand was copying his Yeezy designs.
Respecting West’s decisions she turned the offer down, but West later surprised her with a thank you present. Interestingly, the artist gave Kardashian a $1 million cheque along with a contract that gave her a stake in Yeezy, making her part owner of the company.
2) $14 Million Miami Condo
Kanye West took things up a notch when he surprised his then wife with a luxury condo in Miami’s Faena House. This property was priced at a staggering $14 million and was also referred to as the “billionaire beach bunker.” The property had four bedrooms, five-and-a-half bathrooms, and a huge 4,700 square feet of space.
1) Not One But Five Mercedes-Maybach SUVs
After several years together, the couple was going through a serious phase in 2020, but even this didn’t stop the rapper from showering Kardashian with gifts. This time he went for not one but five luxury cars, and gifted the beauty mogul five Mercedes-Maybach SUVs, each prized at $200,000. In return Kardashian gave west an artwork by James Turrell prized at $1 million.
