She’s one of the names that we aren’t allowed to forget, and in 2013, Kim Kardashian West got a promise from a similarly big name. Kanye proposed, and Kim said yes, making it her third marriage. The ring is a huge and clear Lorraine Schwartz design, and the diamond alone is reported to have cost between $2 million and $4 million.
Sadly, this, or even having four children together wasn’t enough to keep Kim and Ye together. The ultimate celebrity couple shared what seemed to be eight good years together, but finally filed for divorce in 2022. While they’ve both gone on to date an interesting list of people, neither has remarried.
A Ring Fit for a Princess
Prince William expressed his fealty and desire for marriage to socialite Kate Middleton with a lovely and high-class 18-carat oval sapphire ring – the same ring his father gave to his late mother, Princess Diana, for their own engagement. And truly, what else were you going to give to the classy Catherine Middleton? It's a piece of jewelry with a history, though hopefully a happier one for William and Kate.
The two married in 2011, after William proposed in Kenya. And twelve years later, this royal couple looks as happy and glamorous as ever. Now with three beautiful children, the Prince and Princess of Wales have a wonderful family.
And One for the Sister, as Well
Kate's sister Pippa now has her own ring, thanks to hedge fund manager James Matthews. The two announced their engagement in 2016, got married in 2017, and became parents to little Arthur Michael William Matthews in 2018. They went on to have two more children, which are just the cutest kids ever.
The ring is thought to be an Asscher cut diamond, which are built to highlight and enhance a gem's natural details with the help of a high crown and a deep pavilion. We go on to assume these are good things, especially by the look of that stunning ring.
Avatar Star Shows Off Emerald Sparkler
Zoe Saldana married Italian artist, Marco Perego, in 2013, after he popped the question with a huge and stunning green gemstone. The gorgeous emerald matches Zoe's big bright smile perfectly. Perego is known for producing and directing, and the two are now proud parents of Bowie, Cy, and Zen Perego-Saldana. And yes, their kids are stunning too, as if that were any surprise!
While Perego has been busy directing and producing, Saldana has had quite a schedule of her own – especially playing the star role of Neytiri in the world-famous sequel “Avatar: The Way of Water”, which came out in December of 2022.
Designer Beauty
She was first a reality TV star, and now is a designer, which is why Nicole Richie's beautiful 4-carat Neil Lane diamond from husband and baby-daddy Joel Madden may not top the charts for size or prize. It's still worth $200,000 and certainly shows off. In fact, Nicole helped design the ring, and she's gone on record calling it her “dream ring.”
It has a large round stone with smaller diamonds around it, and while it might look far more subtle than some of the other rocks on this list, it’s still quite gorgeous. And definitely a ring that anyone would be happy with! Nicole and her hubby Joel, lead singer of the popular rock band ‘Good Charlotte’, are still happily married today, and have had two beautiful kids since.
