Is Kylie Jenner Engaged?!

by Maitri Suhas

King Kylie is having an incredible Christmas, as any of the Kardashian-Jenners are wont to do. Last night she took a photobooth picture with Drake at Kris Jenner's multi-treed yuletide blowout, and this morning on Christmas Day, possibly announced her engagement to boyfriend Tyga with a photo of a behemoth diamond ring on her finger. Wait, what is happening? Is it a Christmas miracle or a Christmas anxiety attack? Is Kylie Jenner engaged?!

On Friday, Kylie posted an Instagram photo of a very bedazzled finger with her hand on the wheel of a Range Rover (it could be a new addition or her old ride — but that's not the point) The 18-year old captioned her bling ring photo with only a Santa emoji. Sometimes the Kardashian-Jenners are pretty cruel to their fans with all their vagueness. But the confusing part is the ring — which, I cannot stress enough, is enormous — is on her right ring finger. That's not the wedding band finger! Have we been Sherlocked?

It's possible that the 26-year old Tyga could have given her the jewel as one hell of a commitment ring, or that it's a gift from someone else. At least that's what I hope: girl just turned 18, there's no reason to rush into marriage. But still, a ring like that is suspicious...

Later in the night, Jenner posted a second photo of the ring, with no more clarification.

Earlier this year Jenner quashed rumors that she and Tyga had broken up on the Ellen DeGeneres show, saying that he was her best friend, and adding that they were "hanging out." Hanging out can literally mean anything and obviously Jenner knows that. But she also addressed why she tries to keep their relationship mostly private, saying,"I don’t want people to know every time we fight or break up, so I’d rather keep some things private." Although she didn't say if the age difference criticism the duo have gotten was part of the reason, I wouldn't be surprised if it is.

So what's with this very public ring photo?! Kylie is getting more lax on her relationship privacy policy in general. On a preview for an upcoming Keeping Up With The Kardashians featuring the family's annual holiday vacation, Kylie brings Tyga along to St. Barths on what's supposed to be a girls-only trip, which really upsets her sister Kendall. "I was really looking forward to being with Kylie on this trip — not that I don't love Tyga, but having him around kind of takes Kylie away from me," Kendall said. "I don't think spending time with me is very important to her." Sisters before Misters, Kylie!

But maybe Jenner bringing Tyga on the show means things are actually getting serious. Does that mean engagement-serious, though? Kris is not going to be happy.

As far as extravagant gifts go, the ring is not the first one Jenner has received. Tyga got her a Ferrari for her birthday. Radar Online reported that the $450,000 dollar car is actually leased in Kylie's name, but regardless, it's a pretty huge gift. As for this new ring, it is totally possible that it's not from Tyga, and that Jenner was her own Santa Claus this year; she does have the dough, and she did buy herself a mansion this year.

One thing is for sure: that ring is worth more than I will make in my entire life. Not so certain: whether or not there will be another Kardashian-Jenner wedding in the near future. Gird your loins, people.
