A push present (also called a push gift) is a present that’s given to a woman – typically by her spouse or partner – to mark the occasion of her giving birth.
The notion was popularised by Kim Kardashian back in 2012, when she openly asked Kanye West to treat her to a Lorraine Schwartz diamond choker, which she, of course, received.
However, it’s not just celebrities who receive push presents, as data shows they are becoming increasingly popular in the UK and the US. Looking at Google searches, we found that the term ‘push present’ received 288,000 searches in the last 12 months.
The phrase ‘push gift’ has increased by 43% in the last 12 months, suggesting that partners and family are looking to give new mothers a splash of sparkle.
When it comes to splashing the cash on push presents, celebrity couples know exactly how to do it. From supercars and motorcycles to diamond earrings and chokers, fine jewellery and diamond experts at Steven Stone have rounded up the most expensive and outrageous push presents received by our favourite celebs in the last 20 years.
The 5 most expensive push presents
1. Jennifer Lopez’s $2,500,000 ring and earrings from Marc Anthony
Marc Anthony gifted Jennifer Lopez an incredible pair of earrings and a canary diamond ring, worth $2.5 million (£1.9 million) after they welcomed twins Max and Emme on 22nd February 2008.
From all the celebrity push presents we analysed, we can reveal this is by far the most expensive.
2. Kylie Jenner’s $1,400,000 Ferrari from Travis Scott
After going through childbirth, every new parent deserves a Ferrari, however, Kylie Jenner actually received one from Travis Scott in 2018 after she gave birth to Stormi. The beauty queen took to Instagram to share video footage of her impressive jet-black Ferrari LaFerrari. The model is known for its ability to reach 60 mph in less than three seconds, not to mention being very exclusive. The Ferrari LaFerrari that Kylie received is a limited-production car, with only 500 ever manufactured.
Shortly after she shared a snap to social media, the couple took the new car for a test drive to mark their first joint outing welcoming their new daughter, Stormi, into the world.
Sharing her pregnancy journey with fans, in 2018 Kylie shared an intimate video revealing never seen before footage of the couple’s most intimate moments. It was titled ‘To Our Daughter.’
3. Kim Kardashian’s $1,000,000 choker
Before she gave birth to son Saint, Kim Kardashian hinted to her then husband Kanye West that she would like a diamond choker.
Describing push presents to be a sweet and well deserved thank you after a woman has gone through nine months of pregnancy, Kim wasn’t subtle in the slightest when she stated that she’d love a Lorraine Schwartz diamond choker. Kanye didn’t even need to stress about picking the perfect choker out for his wife as she specifically expressed an interest inthe ones that she’d previously worn to the Art + Film Gala.
If anyone’s going to get what they wish for, it’s Kim Kardashian. After she gave birth to their son Saint, Kim was spotted wearing the stunning choker, worth $1,000,000 (£760,000).
4. Blac Chyna bought herself a $400,000 Rolls Royce
When Blac Chyna gave birth in 2020, she didn’t wait for Rob Kardashian to give her a push present – she bought her own.
The reality star shared a photo of her standing next to a white Rolls Royce to Instagram, alongside the caption: “A little gift to myself for working this hard all year! Cant wait to bring my baby girl home!”
The Rolls Royce reportedly cost Blac a reported $400,000 (£315,000).
5. A 10ct cushion cut diamond ring for celebrity stylist, Rachel Zoe
In 2011, Rachel Zoe welcomed her and Rodger Berman’s first son Skyler Morrison into the world.
Rachel’s push present was an incredible 10-carat cushion-cut ring, designed by celebrity jewellery designer, Neil Lane. Speaking to People, Neil explained that Rodger wanted to do something special as Skyler was their first baby and Rachel has been working hard. According to Neil, the celebrity stylist was thrilled and hadn’t taken the sparkler off since.
The ring reportedly cost a staggering $250,000 (£190,000).
However, these stars aren’t the only ones who received mega expensive push presents…
Nicole Kidman received a $120,000 diamond and emerald cross pendant from Keith Urban in 2010, while in 2011, Jessica Alba was seen sporting a $54,000 Franck Muller watch after welcoming her new daughter, Faith.
Khloe Kardashian was never going to be left out of the push present party, as Tristan Thompson bought her a $40,000 (£30,000) pink diamond bracelet, which unfortunately caused controversy amidst cheating rumours. The same goes for sister, Kylie Jenner who was given a pair of diamond stud earrings worth $30,000 (£23,000) from Travis Scott.
Gearing things up a notch, iconic punk chick, P!nk, received her very own motorcycle from hubby Carey Hart in 2017. The singer gave birth to her and Carey’s second child – a son called Jameson – on Boxing Day 2016, and her caption on Instagram labelled the bike, which Carey reportedly made himself, a ‘push present’.
The most sentimental push presents
Beyonce famously sported a stunning sapphire ring after the birth of Blue Ivy in 2012. The huge sapphire, which perfectly symbolises the name of their first child, was a sentimental gift from her husband Jay-Z, and is worth around $35,000 (£27,500).
Tom Cruise gave Katie Holmes an iconic Cartier Love Bracelet after the birth of their daughter Suri. And, while their relationship didn’t quite make it, the sentiment of the Love bracelet was no doubt there at the time.
Kate Middleton and Prince William are also fans of push presents. When Prince George was born in 2013, Prince William gave his wife a circular pendant inscribed with their firstborn’s full name, George Alexander Louis. After Princess Charlotte’s birth in May 2015, Kate received a pair of ($4,500) £3,500 tourmaline, green amethyst and diamond earrings designed by Kiki McDonough.
