They say diamonds are forever, but their story is anything but simple. On this week’s episode of On 2nd Thot, we’re digging into the glittering (and sometimes shady) history of the world’s most coveted stone. From billion-year-old carbon crystals to royal treasures and celebrity scandals, diamonds have been at the center of wealth, romance, and controversy. We’ll talk famous gems, the rise of De Beers, the dark side of mining, and how lab-grown stones are changing the game today. Because let’s be real — behind all that sparkle is a history worth a second thought.
