Four months ago, pop culture fans were shocked that Kim Kardashian had managed to get engaged once again, to rapper Kanye West, who is also the father of her first and only child North. However, yesterday, in the midst of the NBA All-Star game, fans got to see the magical moment happen on the reality tv show Keeping Up With The Kardashians. Kanye, 36 proposed to his girlfriend in front of entire family and closest friends at AT&T Stadium in San Francisco. Momager, Kris Jenner, was the only one in the family that knew about the surprise engagement, telling friends and family that Kanye had planned a surprised birthday party. She had just four days to invite guests on the trip and an even bigger challenge was keeping quiet, as the Kardashian clan grilled her about the night’s events as they traveled on private jets to San Fransisco. But Kris remained tight-lipped under pressure, saying: ‘I don’t know. I’m in the dark.’
When Kim’s sisters and brother Rob arrived inside the baseball stadium, they began to get suspicious that perhaps they weren’t just there for a birthday surprise and something bigger was going to occur. They were all guided into hiding in the stadium dugouts with strict instructions to keep absolutely quiet and off their phones, refraining from posting on social media.
As Kim, who was blind folded, and Kanye drove into the stadium, the 50-piece orchestra took position and a hushed silence fell.
‘I can’t breathe,’ an emotional Khloe whispered. ‘This is the best thing I’ve ever seen in my life. I’m gonna cry. I didn’t know this was real. This is a movie.’
While roman candles burned, and the orchestra played Kanye told told Kim: ‘I just want to know.’ as he dropped down on one knee. Kim gasped and covered her face in shock as her sisters Khloe and Kendall Jenner gasped from their hiding place. ‘You want to know what?’ Kim asked coyly. ‘If you’ll marry me,’ Kanye responded, grinning from ear to ear. After Kim whispered ‘of course,’ Kanye handed over a box containing a 15-carat diamond ring made by celebrity jeweller Lorraine Schwartz.’I can’t believe this is happening,’ Kim said as she kissed and embraced the father of her daughter, North, with the words ‘Pleeease marry meee!!!’ glowing on the stadium’s giant screen.
He also revealed that he had been up all night finishing the design of the ring and making sure it was perfect.
”To get engaged and then see all my family and all my friends be there really surprises me and it’s so sweet that Kanye thought to bring them all here.’
