Well it’s your husband’s family and there is no reason he shouldn’t have a ring from his nan for his wife Nothing stopping him from bringing that up either if you decide to keep it. I was given my husband’s grandmothers ring shortly after we married and I immediately asked if they were sure his sister didn’t want it. She doesn’t wear jewelry and this ring is really really nice and worth a lot so I had to make sure.This was my initial thoughts- I just didn’t know if I looked like a bit of a witch running to the aunts for back up. I don’t want it to cause a family drama. Honestly when it went around the rumour mill last year I asked then what I should do and they told me to keep it. I told her that when she came over but she was very pressing saying how she doesn’t think it would be wrong for me to hand it over there and then etc. I’m not a confrontational person and I felt very awkward sat in my house knowing it was within my reach but it just didn’t feel right.. I’m not sure if that’s because I let the wrong feelings cloud my judgement though
edit to add: I understand it might look like handing over the ring would eliminate any family drama. But I actually think it will kick start an argument with the aunts about how spoilt and entitled they think she is....
So she said something along the lines of one day just the two of them were at Nans. Nan was going through her box and SIL said she liked it so it was just a nice memory that day and Nan said she could have it.
It’s very tempting just to hand it over so she leaves you alone and avoid drama. But it’s likely she’s gonna bring drama anyways for other things if this is such an issue for her. You just have to decide if that’s what you really want to do. How important it is to you and how important she is to you.
