Well, I am not a lawyer ....but according to my understanding, a wedding ring was a gift from your spouse, so you do NOT have to give it back to him! ~ Kristina (I am getting a divorce and I am keeping mine..although I really don't know why....but I am guessing your ring must be really expensive ;-)) Mine wasn't..

∙ 14y agoThe engagement ring is the woman's whether she is married or not. If it is an heirloom then it would be fair to give the ring back or, in the case of divorce compensation for the cost of that heirloom ring.

∙ 13y agoyou should return your wedding band as it is the symbol of your marriage but you should not return your engagement ring as that was the symbol of your engagement and you for filled your obligation there
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoThat is entirely up to you. There are no laws telling you what to do. Some give it back, others keep it and some sell it or turn it into another piece of jewelry.
AnswerNo. A wedding band is a valuable piece of jewelry and there is no reason to give it back. Wedding bands are exchanged at the time of the marriage. They become the property of the recipient. Perhaps you are confusing engagement rings with wedding rings. Many states have laws that govern the disposition of rings given in contemplation of marriage if the wedding never takes place. Many states require that the engagement ring goes back to the giver.
Your wedding ring is your property.

∙ 14y ago- Unless the engagement ring and wedding band is a family heirloom then no, the woman should keep the rings. If her ex was getting engaged to someone else in the future she would not want rings that he intended to give to another woman.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoNo, they are yours to keep. If the engagement ring was a heirloom given to each male in the family then it is entirely up to you whether you choose to give the ring back.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoNo. That would be stupid because it's been at least a year since you were married due to separation laws.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoUnless it is stated in the prenuptial agreement, no. Though I'm not sure why you'd want to keep it.
