Iggy Azalea & Playboi Carti Have $366,000 Worth of Jewelry Stolen & It Might Include Her Engagement Ring!

Looks like Iggy Azalea and Playboi Carti own fewer diamonds! TMZ is reporting that the singer and Carti had $366,000 worth of jewelry stolen from their rental home in Atlanta.

A thief entered the home through an unlocked door and made off with custom rings, chains, bracelets, pendants, watches, earrings and a diamond ring (which TMZ is reporting to be an engagement ring!)  Could it be the one (see picture below) created by Aussie designer Stefano Canturi that Iggy flaunted on Instagram which sparked the engagement rumors to Playboi Carti?

Page Six is also stating that the diamond ring listed in the incident report and worth around $35,000 was the same ring that Iggy was flaunting on social media before the pair moved in!
