“With the Australian Open concluding just last week, I have tennis on the mind. Because of this, I can’t help but spotlight Anna Kournikova’s very memorable pink pear diamond ring that she debuted—on the court—back in 2004. A gift from her longtime partner Enrique Iglesias, it has long been rumored that the ring was an engagement ring, though that has never been confirmed, as the couple is very private. The 11-carat stone is flanked by two smaller diamonds and comes in at an estimated $5 million. The pink. The shape. The tennis match debut. I love it all!”

Jackie Onassis

“My favorite celebrity engagement ring was given to Jackie Onassis by John F. Kennedy in the summer of 1953. The Toi et Moi style ring from Van Cleef & Arpels features a diamond and emerald, with marquise-cut stones resembling a laurel wreath along the band. It is one of the most unique engagement rings I have ever seen, with the incorporation of color and attention to detail making it stand the test of time.
‘Few women in the 20th century were more influential in terms of style than Jackie Kennedy,’ British Vogue‘s jewelry director Rachel Garrahan says in this article. “‘Her engagement ring from JFK captured the clean-cut, timeless elegance that would define her forever.’ And I couldn’t agree more.”

“The ring itself is gorgeous, and it is magnetic to the eyes. But the cutest part was the inclusion of their dog, Leo, who sported a special black tie collar with a tag saying ‘Dad Wants to Marry You’ when Ferrari F1 driver Charles Leclerc proposed.”

“In December 2024, Selena Gomez revealed her engagement ring from Benny Blanco, which stunned lovers of marquise-cut diamonds like me. The center diamond is estimated at six to eight carats and delicately set on a yellow gold pavé band. Its simplicity and timelessness are effortlessly romantic with a hint of vintage charm. Très chic!”

“This ring is absolutely stunning! Three-stone engagement rings are definitely having a moment, but a brilliant-cut center stone with two side stones is truly timeless and will never go out of style. I also love the meaning behind a trilogy ring, symbolizing the past, present and future. I’m obsessed!”

“If you know me, you know my pick has to be Taylor Swift. First, I don’t think I’ve ever been so happy for a human finding true love, in a totally non-parasocial way. Second, the ring itself is a dream. I’m a big fan of a bezel setting, and I think it gives a classy and charming vintage look. I also love that the band is thicker, but not in a way that overpowers the diamond (I mean, how could it?). This has to be my favorite because it’s nearly the exact style I want for my own and of course, I’m a Swiftie.”
