FLASH FROM THE PAST

Kim Kardashian gives glimpse of £3.5million diamond ring in carefree Vogue video filmed prior to Paris robbery

The reality TV star is unlikely to see her engagement ring again, according to experts

AN UNSEEN video released by Vogue has shown Kim Kardashian flashing her £3.5million ring before it was stolen in a horrifying robbery.

The reality TV star, 35, is seen part in a happy-go-lucky video where she answers some simple Would You Rather? questions.

This includes whether she'd want to be invisible or fly for a day (fly) and eat Chinese takeout or McDonalds (McDonalds).

But when she is asked whether she'd live without air conditioning in heat or the internet (air conditioning, of course), she uses her hand to explain and flashes her gigantic Lorraine Schwartz gem.

Vogue have only just released the video, which was filmed prior to her harrowing ordeal which saw a gang robbers steal her ring.

But Kim is unlikely to see her ring again.

Experts have said that the thieves who stole the ring will take great care in making sure that they are not traced back to the crime, and will likely get it re-cut by specialists.

A diamond gang’s first move is usually to flee the country where they struck and head to a location where cops are not searching for them.

Due to jewels’ small size, it’s almost impossible for border police to stop the items being taken abroad.

Diamond expert Fred Cuellar said: “Even with millions of Pounds of jewellery, we’re not talking about a wheelbarrow-sized amount of stones – more like a small box full of them. It’s very difficult to detect that.”

Kim's harrowing ordeal included her being tied up and left in the bath after robbers held a gun to her head.

The reality TV star had begged for her life and "feared she was about to be raped".

She managed to escape after wiggling free of her plastic handcuffs and screaming for help on her balcony.

Kim Kardashian finally returned to social media this week, but rather than post anything she went on a huge deleting spree.

On Wednesday, Kim appeared to pick a number of people she followed on the social networking site and deleted them.
