Kendra Wilkinson hasn't been wearing her wedding ring -- but it's not because there are problems in her marriage to Hank Baskett.

"My ring will not fit my fat finger so we are resizing it," the reality star, who gained more than 50 pounds while pregnant with her baby boy Hank IV, Twittered on Thursday.
Kendra's bump! See how her body transformed during her pregnancy
Wilkinson, 24, who wed Baskett last June at the Playboy mansion, admits she's been getting a lot of questions about her bare finger.
"It's crazy how many people think a ring on the finger represents love and marriage," she Twittered earlier this week. "Jeez, so weird."

Most recently, the star was spotted without her ring bling while playing soccer on Tuesday.
"I love clearing this up every day ... LOL," she Twittered.
Tell Us What You Think
36my parents have been married for 30 years and stopped wearing their rings like 10 years ago...and they said the same thing. rings have no meaning. The first ring that my dad gave to my mom has way more meaning for her and she wears that everyday NOT on her ring finger... Kendra I
kendra u keep on keeping on, people will say and do anything to tear u down.
whatever chubs
People gain weight when they are pregnant, leave the girl alone. Kendra, you should also just ignore them all, stop twittering about it and let them say what they will, the will anyway
my god people, she is not huge, and just because your doctor tells you what "you're allowed" to gain, it doesnt always work out like that, sometimes your body has a mind of its own when it making a baby! The rude comments are coming from stupid teenage girls who havent got a clue and bitter barren women who are just jealous...
When I see little girls like Kendra gaining 50 lbs. I wonder Why the Dr. didn't tell her not to. In the 50's our drs. would not allow women to gain so much and I gained 14 pounds with my last baby and had a 8 lb.,14 oz. baby. Previously I gained 8 pounds and had a 6 lb., 14 oz. girl. It's so much better that way.
um Denelle NOT everyone loses the weight quickly! Just b/c she has not lost it yet does not mean she is overeating or not eating healthy! Get facts straight and stop acting like you know wth you are talking about. Not every person is alike and we all lose weight differently and for some it is easy and for others it isn't.
Ppl really need to leave her alone..The media is always trying to start some b.s. bc they know good and well she has recently had a baby and so why should she have to explain over and over to them that her ring doesn't fit right now? Once the weight goes down and she can fit the ring again and she still won't wear then the media can start to wonder what is going on but until then.... back off!!
Kendra, you look great. I know you have to be happy with yourself, so if you want to lose weight, go for it. But only do it for yourself. You are NOT fat WHATSOEVER. Anyone who says you are is completely insane/delusional. Women always looks different after having a baby. The size and weight you are at is completely healthy and you should NOT feel bad about yourself. You have a beautiful family and you look great :)
I'm not Recep's girlfriend .. you obviously have some self esteem issues seeing all you do is bash beautiful women from kendra to kim ... maybe you should take a look in the mirror and see who the real ugly skank is ... just saying...
She needs to not beat herself up over this. I mean, she just had a baby! I'd love to have her figure. I've never given birth, but I'm sure I'll be huge, too. And I'll love every second of it!
Wow, she gained a ton. She looks so fat. Usually you lose the weight quickly after the baby. She does have to stop eating whatever it is that she is shoving down her throat.
so kendra isn't wearing her wedding ring because it doesn't fit her finger at the moment. big deal. i don't wear mine a lot of the time & my husband doesn't wear his, but that doesn't mean that there's something bad going on.
Lay off the twinkies you FAT COW. MOO!!! ! Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha ha Kendra is a UGLY SKAN.K.
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha This BIT.CH. has fat fingers. Lay off the twinkies you faw COW. MOO!
i dont think wearing or not wearing your wedding band is a big deal. i take my off to play sports or clean my house sometimes, and forget to put it back on. So what's with having to explain it?
resizing makes the metal weak and MANY jewelers will say not to resize until you give your body a chance to drop the weight from having a kid. Just b/c she isn't wearing the ring does NOT mean there are problems. A ring does NOT make a marriage better or even worse, it is ONLY a RING and really means very little! My husband don't wear his often, he is not allowed to wear it to work and when he gets off after 12-16 hrs he don't feel like putting it on. It don't mean our marriage is on the rocks as I said a ring really has VERY little meaning. Gaining 50lbs is NOT that bad seeing as she only gained 20 more than reccomended amount! Yes it takes longer to lose but she had a 9lb baby and is breast feeding so gaining a little more is NOT a big deal. Give her a break people. Like any of YOU are perfect!
I think we all gain a few pounds while pregnant, while it takes a few weeks sometimes months to loose the weight that you gain. if you diet you will take off the extra pounds that you put on.
I gained 40 pounds and lost all but 10 in 6 weeks and then lost that 10 within a year. It takes time! My husband and I do not wear our wedding rings, they are just uncomfortable. I think it's hilarious that people think we are not as "legit" because we don't wear our rings. We actually feel that we must be more secure and more trusting in our marriage as we don't need a piece of metal to give weight to our marriage. We know we're married, it's nobody else's business!
Kendra - I've got a 14 month old and once little Hank hits about 10 months... your hips should "pop" back into place and all of your extra swelling (fingers) should go down. I wanted to re-size my ring and the jeweler said to wait and she was right! Also, I went on Nutrisystem and got back down to my pre-preggo weight in no time! You look GREAT btw!
