Um, Liberace? In this case it would be who "Was" the king of diamonds. ;)

I suppose today he would be called the King of Bling. LOL

Here is another clue because the initial question was pretty vague.

In 1887 He purchased some of the french crown jewels, prompting the press to call him "The King of Diamonds".
