Was Kim Kardashian’s brand new £3.5m engagement ring stolen by Paris robbers after she wore it at Givenchy fashion show last night?
THE £3.5million ring stolen in a terrifying raid on Kim Kardashian's Paris flat could have been a 20-carat second engagement ring given to her by husband Kanye West, it is feared.
Reality star Kim was tied up and robbed at gunpoint during the attack at a Paris apartment in the earlier hours of this morning.
More than £9MILLION worth of jewellery is believed to have been taken - with much of that loaned to the American for Paris Fashion Week.
But fears are rising that several pieces were highly-personal to 35-year-old Kardashian.
Foremost of those is the 20-carat emerald-cut ring given to her by husband Kanye just last month.

Rapper West gave his wife the ring as an upgrade to her original 15-carat Lorraine Schwartz engagement ring.
Worrying details about how the thugs were able to carry out their sinister plan in the early hours of this morning have now begun to emerge.
The gang are believed to have entered the plush apartment on Paris' Rue Tronchet at around 2.30am.
Dressed as police, sources say the men were unwittingly allowed into the complex by a concierge.
He was then handcuffed and marched at gunpoint to the apartment in which American Kardashian was staying.
Her children Saint and North are not believed to have been in the room, although they may have been staying in the complex.
After being led to the star's door, the men tied up her bodyguard and entered the room.
Kardashian was herself tied up and threatened with a gun before being locked in the apartment's bathroom.
Her belongings were then raided and more than £9million worth of jewellery was taken.
Kardashian was unharmed during the raid but is understood to be severely shaken by the ordeal.
She has since fled the French capital on a private jet.
A police source said: "They then helped themselves to millions of euros, before making their escape.
"Victims of this robbery were unharmed but they are clearly in a state of shock and fear."
