Paris Hilton plans to keep her $2m 20-carat engagement ring

Cape Town - Paris Hilton is apparently planning to keep the $2m 20-carat engagement ring she received from her former fiancé Chris Zylka.

The DJ called off her wedding and split from the Leftovers actor in November after the former couple had only been engaged for 10 months.

Chris proposed with the $2m 20-carat ring, which was designed by celebrity jeweller Michael Greene, during a ski trip in Aspen in January.

During an interview on The Jenny McCarthy Show, Paris suggested however that her former beau didn't pay for the ring and that she should be allowed to keep it because of all the "free publicity" the jeweller got after her engagement.
