The 50 most expensive celebrity engagement rings ever

Prepare to be seriously jealous

Being queen of all things extra, we weren't exactly surprised to find out Mariah Carey takes the cake for the most expensive rock. James Packer popped the question in 2016 with a 35-carat diamond and platinum ring crafted by jewellery designer Wilfredo Rosado. The grand total? A whopping $10 million (£7.7 million). Unfortunately, the couple never made it down the aisle-but it's rumoured that Carey held on to the ring.

Elizabeth Taylor didn't play games when it came to jewellery (or husbands). In 1968, Richard Burton gave Taylor a 33.19-carat Asscher-cut diamond with an estimated worth of $8.8 million (£6.8 million). It's no wonder she wore it for the rest of her life.

Kanye knocked his engagement to Kim Kardashian out of the park in presentation alone (of course he rented out a stadium and decked it out with an orchestra and candles), but the 15-carat, $8 million (£6.2 million) ring definitely sealed the deal.

Leave it to Queen Bey to have one of the world's most expensive rings. Estimated to cost a cool $5 million (£3.8 million), Jay-Z popped the question with an insanely gorgeous, 18-carat emerald-cut ring.

Four months after Latsis proposed to Hilton with a 25-carat, $4.7 million (£3.2 million) rock, the couple went their separate ways.

Post-Ben Affleck, J.Lo received an 8.5-carat, blue-diamond ring from Marc Anthony. While the $4.1 million (£3.1 million) ring lead the two down the aisle, the couple split up in 2014.

Prince Rainier III of Monaco popped the question with a beautiful, 10.47-carat Cartier rock. The emerald-cut diamond cost Rainier an estimated $4.06 million (£3 million), but a catch like Kelley is pretty damn priceless.

Although Vanessa and Kobe have been together since 2001, Bryant upgraded her ring two years later with an 8-carat, $4 million (£3 million) diamond.

Donald Trump proposed to Melania with a 12-carat ring with an estimated worth of $3 million (£2.3 million).

Although smaller than the ring Carey received from James Packer, Nick Cannon gave the singer a beautiful 10-carat, emerald-cut, pink diamond worth a solid $2.5 million (£2 million).

Enrique Iglesias and Anna Kournikova are pretty low-key about their relationship, but that's probably because Kournikova's $2.5 million (£1.9 million), 11-carat engagement ring speaks for itself.

Topping Ciara's prior engagement ring from Future, Russell Wilson popped the question with a 16-carat, $2 million rock (£1.5 million).

Prince William proposed to Kate Middleton with the same ring Prince Charles gave to Princess Diana. Although the 12-carat, sapphire ring was valued at $47,000 in 1981, today it's closer to $500,000 (£386,130).
