Well, the answer to that question is very easy: the answer is, yes. This is a rare occurrence, however.
A diamond will fracture along a flaw or where the diamond lattice is flawed. Most diamond cutters cut and polish diamonds to avoid flaws. Most reputable jewelers set diamonds so that any flaw is not presented in such a way so as to place the diamond in harms way.
As well, diamonds with visible flaws, rated I# [inclusion number] will 'break' more easily than a diamond with a higher clarity rating.

How do you protect a diamond?
You can best protect a diamond by keeping it in a soft bag in a safe deposit box in a bank. At home, keep your diamond jewelry that you're not wearing in a soft bag, separate from other jewelry, preferably in a safe. When you wear your diamond ring, take care not to lose it. Don't take it off when you wash your hands or apply lotion, just don't apply the lotion to the diamond jewelry. Keep your diamond in a safe place when you work with your hands, so that you don't damage the diamond setting, which can loosen the stone. And as a professional football player just learned, don't wear your diamond earrings to football practice. A diamond is meant to be seen and admired; it is not a tool. Take your diamond jewelry to a jeweler regularly to verify that the setting is secure. Finally, photograph your diamonds and keep the photograph(s) and your gemologist's certificate(s) for the stone(s) with your insurance policy, that insures your diamonds in a safe place.

How does one break a diamond?
Diamond cutters fracture raw diamond stones using diamond cutters, lasers and hammers. Diamonds can fracture along flaws. Large, rough diamonds are fashioned and cut this way.

Pure diamonds are just carbon interlinked very strongly so almost never break but fake diamonds are not pure therefor can break. So if it's a real diamond they are not mixtures.
Is it possible to chip a real diamond?
Yes. If the stone has any imperfection, flaw or inclusion, that represents a weak bond in the structure of the diamond stone. If the setting doesn't protect the stone, and if the diamond is hit 'just right' with the exact amount of force and at the 'exact' angle necessary, the diamond can chip. Chipping a diamond is unusual, however, and doesn't occur very often. But it's one of the reasons for buying insurance on a diamond.
