Kanye West making Kim Kardashian engagement ring from mother's jewels?
The 'Gold Digger' rapper has apparently asked a private jeweller to craft a piece for his girlfriend using diamonds and rubies from his late mother Donda's personal collection.
The star wants to propose when the reality TV star's divorce to Kris Humphries is finalised, according to RadarOnline.com.
A source said: "Kanye picked out some of Donda's most expensive pieces, including some diamond earrings and a ruby ring.
"He then gave them to a private jeweller friend to make Kim a one-of-a-kind engagement ring."
They continued: "Donda was such an important person in Kanye's life, he thought the world of her and was devastated when she died. So, he kept all her jewellery as keepsakes - a lot of the pieces were items he bought over the years after he made it as a hip-hop star.
"And now, Kanye has found a woman he respects and loves just as much as his mum, so he wants to share her jewellery collection with Kim."
West allegedly wants to marry Kardashian in either Chicago, Illinois, where he was raised, or Oklahoma, where Donda is buried.
However, friends have advised him against the gesture as he would struggle to get the precious jewels back if he and Kim were to split.
The source explained: "His friends think it's a terrible idea and are advising him not to give Kim the ring. Because it's a gift, it would be difficult for Kanye to ask for it back if they ever split up."
