Concerning Pics Show Kim Kardashian Out In LA Not Wearing Engagement Ring

Not too long ago, rumors started suggesting there might be trouble in paradise for Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.

First, Kim allegedly moved into her own place after Kanye had a meltdown that led to his hospitalization in November.

Then Kanye visited Donald Trump in New York, even after the president-elect body-shamed his pregnant wife.

If that's not enough proof to convince you the end might be near for this relationship, it appears Kim Kardashian has also stopped wearing her engagement ring.

That's right. Despite the fact that some of Kim's confidantes like Jonathan Cheban have said Kimye have no plans of calling it quits anytime soon, Kim is giving off some signals that suggest otherwise.

On Saturday night, the reclusive 36-year-old reality star was spotted driving in an SUV with her son Saint and her friend Brittny Gastineau.

Apparently, Gastineau had visited Kim at her Bel-Air mansion that evening. She Snapchatted the home's giant Christmas tree, as well as the festive decor outside.

Later, paparazzi managed to snapped a pic of Kim while she drove around in her car. If you look closely at some of the photographs, you'll notice Kim appears to be wearing a plain gold ring, presumably a wedding band, rather than the flashy engagement ring that was given to her by Kanye.

This is one of the first times Kim has been seen out and about since she was robbed at gunpoint in Paris.

Although Kim's original 15-carat ring was stolen during the heist, it's been reported Kanye gave Kim a new 20-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond engagement ring in September.

According to E!, Kim has not been photographed with an engagement ring since the robbery and she has been known to step out without a ring on her finger occasionally.

However, with all these relationship rumors, it's hard to tell whether Kim is simply ditching the rock because of the robbery or if Kim is going ringless to send a message about her relationship.
