Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson have stirred up engagement rumors again.
It began when Kardashian posted a photo to Instagram showing off her new manicure. But it was not her pointy, rainbow-colored nails that caused a sensation — it was the massive diamond ring she was wearing on her ring finger.
Thompson's reaction to the photo did not help to quiet speculation that the couple were engaged. Replying to the image, Thompson posted several emojis, including the smiling face with heart eyes emoji and an emoji of a diamond ring.
His response had fans hoping that a wedding was in the pipeline.
"This HAS to be an engagement ring," one wrote.
"Oooo r u engaged," another asked
"yes! You did it man! Congrats to both," a third commenter wrote.
"@realtristan13 congrats you two take good care of our fave Khloe's heart. She's too pure and amazing," another added.
Kardashian and Thompson have not confirmed the news, but Khloe's mother, Kris Jenner, did not deny it when asked about a potential engagement while chatting with Ellen DeGeneres recently.
"That's a good ring. I think she just loves jewelry. She loves a good, you know, ring!" she said. "You should ask Khloe that."
Meanwhile, Kourtney Kardashian's love life has also drawn widespread attention. The "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star embarked upon her first family vacation with her new boyfriend, Travis Barker, over the weekend. The pair visited Deer Valley, Utah, with their children and documented the trip on Instagram with several photos and videos of their ski trip.
Kourtney and Barker, who is known as the drummer from the punk rock band "Blink 182," were friends for years before they began dating. They made their relationship official several weeks ago.
"Kourtney and Travis are in total lust over each other and she doesn’t regret going public with their relationship at all," a source revealed to Entertainment Tonight in March. "The relationship was a long time coming because the attraction has always been there on both sides," the source adds. "They love the fact that they have a true friendship and bonded that way before taking anything further and making things romantic."
Another source explained to the outlet that the pair just clicked and transitioning over from friends was easy for them.
"Kourtney and Travis have had a platonic relationship for years and they’ve been friends and family friends for a very long time, but recently something sparked and their relationship has turned romantic," the insider said. "They live on the same block and things are super easy between them because they know each other so well and just click and get one another," the source added.
