Kylie Jenner Responds To Engagement Rumors, Posts Photo With Tyga

Kylie Jenner may have had a romantic Christmas with boyfriend Tyga, but that doesn’t mean that the two are engaged. Despite sparking speculation after posting a photo of a massive diamond ring, the 18-year-old “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star reassured her fans that her rapper beau did not propose.

“Merry Christmas,” Kylie captioned a photo on Twitter Friday with a heart emoji. The picture shows the teen’s right hand resting on her leg, a cushion cut diamond sparkling on her finger.

Fans of the makeup businesswoman immediately began to comment on the image, asking if Tyga popped the question. Kylie didn’t immediately clarify who exactly gifted her the impressive piece of jewelry, but she later took to her website to address the rumors.

While she did admit that the ring was “an extra special gift from someone,” she added with a little smiley face, “NO, I’m not engaged.” The comment accompanied a photo of Kylie pulling Tyga in for a kiss at mom Kris Jenner’s annual Christmas Eve party.

Although Kylie’s diamond is not an engagement ring, it appears as if the “Lip Kit by Kylie” designer’s relationship is stronger than ever. Late last month rumors were circulating that the pair broke up. TMZ reported at the time that Tyga wasn’t enjoying the “pressure from the Kardashians” and called it quits. However, Kylie went on “The Ellen DeGeneres” show to shut down the rumors. She told the talk show host the “people have it all wrong.”

“We’re not broken up,” she explained. “Honestly, we became best friends before anything happened, so I think that that’s awesome, and we’re just like, I don’t know, hanging out.”
