Kenny Petty Pays A Reported $1.1 Million For Nicki Minaj’s Wedding Ring

The jeweler who made Nicki Minaj’s wedding ring design told TMZ that Kenny Petty paid for the ring on his own, and noted that the ring, which has a 17-carat center with WS2-clarity diamonds, is worth an estimated $1.1 million. Kathryn Money, VP of Strategy & Merchandising for Brilliant Earth tells ET that the band featured in Rafaello and Co.’s Instagram post is worth an estimated $50,000 to $65,000.

“The dazzling ring features five rows of over 100 oval diamonds, weighing an estimated 15 total carats, set in a white gold or platinum eternity band,” Money says.

In a selfie video posted to her Instagram, both Minaj and Petty further addressed those wondering if she bought her own wedding ring.

“A small word from Jennifer Tilley as #TheBrideOfChucky ? Heavy on the Sleeze ? ????? ?,” she captioned the post.

Staying in character as the Bride of Chucky, Minaj asks Chucky, aka Petty, “Everybody said that you secured the bag, you married a multi-millionaire and you secured the bag.

“You know I just cut somebody’s mother f**king finger off for that ring,” 41-year-old Petty, as Chucky, responds in character. “You mean, I didn’t buy this ring?” Minaj asks.

“No, you didn’t buy that ring!” he replies.
