Lost artefact from tomb of Tutankhamun?

Thanks to EEF for the following link in the EEF News Digest:

A small story which seems to be a teaser for a print version of the story. Basically it suggests that a ring in private ownership, found in the UK by a metal detector user on a beach on the Isle of Wight, may have been part of a collection lost in a ship wreck. It goes on to suggest, on what grounds I don't know, that it may have belonged to the Tutankhamun treasure, and that it is cursed. See the above page for details, but it has more about the bad luck that the familiy have experienced than information about the ring. There is a photo.
