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 celebrity’s personal style (take Meghan Fox’s two-stone emerald and diamond ring from Machine Gun Kelly) but they also give us an insight into high-profile love stories we’ve always wondered about.
Meghan Markle’s ring from Prince Harry, for example, was made with stones from Princess Diana’s private collection, whereas George Clooney made sure he had an ethically sourced diamond for his human rights lawyer fiancée Amal Alamuddin. Then there’s 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 Taylor’s 33-carat diamond from Richard Burton? Or Jennifer Lopez’s 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.
