Kim Kardashian Is Engaged!

After a relatively short (but long in Kardashian terms—hiya, Khlomar!) six months of dating, New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries popped the question to Kim, E! News confirms.

As one would expect, it was a proposal—and ohdeargodareyouforreal—a ring befitting the reality princess.

"OMGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!" Kim wrote on her blog. "It's true! I couldn't be happier! Thank you guys for all of the sweet messages!!! I finally found my missing puzzle piece, I'm complete!

The proposal took place one week ago, on May 18, when the 26-year-old Humphries surprised his 30-year-old love in her Beverly Hills home. When she entered her bedroom, she saw Humphries already on bended knee with red rose petals forming what was by then a hopefully obvious question: "Will you marry me?"

"I didn't expect this at all," the bride-to-be told People. "I was in such shock. I never thought it would happen at home, and I never thought now."





Another thing she couldn't have expected: the size of that rock. Humphries' question was eased along by the offering of a custom-designed 20.5-carat Lorrain Schwartz diamond engagement ring.

Yes, you read that right: 20.5 carats. Just so you know what kind of bauble we're dealing with here, it surpasses that of even a duchess, as Kate Middleton's massive sapphire engagement ring from Prince William is a relatively paltry 18 carats.

"I just knew I wanted it to be big," Humphries told the mag. Sounds like you got yourself a keeper there, Kim.

The surprise was pulled off—as all Kardashian surprises seem to be—with help from mama Kris Jenner, who was in on (the other) Kris' plans and who had planned an intimate celebration for the immediate family later that night.

"Kris really didn't want a big celebration, but he had jokingly told my mom he'd be fine if there were mini-horses there," Kim said. "Later that night, my mom brought out two mini-horses, covered in glitter, for us! It was hysterical!" (Sweet and all, just don't let Pink hear you.)

No wedding date has yet been announced, though if we can learn anything from the past, it's that it will not only not be kept secret, but will get a special place in our hearts. And our TiVos.

"YIIPPEEE SO HAPPY!!!!!" Jenner tweeted this morning of the news that she would once again be made a mother-in-law. "PALEEEEEZE GIVE ME MORE THAN 9 DAYS!!!!!!!! I AM BEGGING….."

Kim's sister Khloé Kardashian Odom (she of the infamous nine-day advance wedding prep) also wasted no time in publicly congratulating her sister.


"I can't believe I was able to keep this a secret but now I can scream all I want about it! Kim is engaged!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!

"Kimmie I love you so much!!!! I would do anything in the world for you!!! Seeing you this happy in your life makes me smile daily! You deserve this happiness! Get excited baby!!!!! We r about2 celebrate!! :) Kris welcome 2the fam! Just so u know, u married all of us!"

Not to be left out, Kourtney Kardashian also got in on the excitement, tweeting, "My sister is engaged!!! I'm squealing with excitement! The princess has found her prince. I am so happy because @KimKardashian is happy!"

Congrats, you two..

Ukrainians injured as police dismantle Kiev 'tent city'

At least 10 demonstrators have been injured in clashes with Ukrainian police and another 100 detained in the capital Kiev after authorities began dismantling a makeshift "tent city" protesting against corruption. The tent city was set up in October by supporters of Mikheil Saakashvili, a former president of Georgia who has become an opposition politician in Ukraine. Saakashvili, a critic of corruption in Ukraine, was deported to Poland in February. He said he was "kidnapped" by Ukrainian authorities and removed from the country against his will. Andriy Kryshchneko, police chief of police, said at the camp on Saturday that "two court decisions" allowed authorities to search and dismantle the camp. Police said that explosives and other weapons were found at the scene

In abrupt turnaround, Olympus admits it hid losses

Japan's Olympus admitted on Tuesday it hid losses on securities investments dating back two decades, bowing to weeks of pressure to explain a series of baffling transactions that have put the future of the firm in doubt. The revelations by the 92-year-old company appear to vindicate ex-CEO Michael Woodford, who has staged a campaign since being sacked on October 14 to force the firm to come clean on nearly $1.5 billion in questionable payments. Olympus President Shuichi Takayama blamed Tsuyoshi Kikukawa, who quit as president and chairman on October 26, Vice-President Hisashi Mori and internal auditor Hideo Yamada for the cover-up, saying he would consider criminal complaints against them. The admission after weeks of denials shocked investors, sending shares in the endoscope and camera maker skidding almost 30 percent and prompting the biggest non-Japanese shareholder to demand the replacement of the entire board.
