The Best Celebrity Engagement Rings of All Time
Celebrity engagement rings are both an object of affection for the famous wearer and an object of fascination for the general public. Not only do they show off the celebrityâs personal style (take Meghan Foxâs two-stone emerald and diamond ring from Machine Gun Kelly) but they also give us an insight into high-profile love stories weâve always wondered about.
Meghan Markleâs ring from Prince Harry, for example, was made with stones from Princess Dianaâs private collection, whereas George Clooney made sure he had an ethically sourced diamond for his human rights lawyer fiancĂ©e Amal Alamuddin. Then thereâs the fact that, due to the significant wealth of the couples involved, the rings are typically, well, huge. Though technically a gift rather than an engagement ring, who can forget Elizabeth Taylorâs 33-carat diamond from Richard Burton? Or Jennifer Lopezâs 8.5-carat green diamond from Ben Affleck?
Below, ring inspiration galore from some of the dazzling gems sported by stars, royalty, and socialites. While their marriages don’t always last, these celebrity engagement rings prove that at least a diamond is forever.
