Jennifer Lopez has been engaged six times and married four times – which means she has built up an impressive ring collection.

Marc Anthony gave J-Lo the most expensive ring overall, worth a staggering £3,000,000 today, however Mr Ben Affleck didn’t disappoint us either, as the rare pink diamond he gifted to Jen is now worth more than double it was at the time he proposed.

Zack Stone, engagement ring specialist at Steven Stone, has valued these sensational jewels, estimating that, collectively, they are worth a staggering £9.7 million.

Ojani Noa

Value: £100,000 ($131,000)

In 1997, Jen was fresh on the block when she married restauranteur Ojani Noa, who swept her off her feet with her very first engagement ring. When he popped the question he presented her with a pear-shaped diamond ring on a yellow gold band, thought to be worth a £100,000.

However, the two parted ways after just one year together, and it wasn’t until 2001 that Jennifer was offered another hand in marriage.

Cris Judd

Value: £200,000 ($262,400)

Chris Judd and Jennifer Lopez first crossed paths in 2000, on the set of the ‘Love Don’t Cost a Thing’ music video, where Cris was a backup dancer for J-Lo. That same year, in June, he reportedly proposed at a barbecue, before the couple wed in a “secret” ceremony in September, where 170 guests attended.

While the wedding may have been low-key, her engagement ring certainly wasn’t. Boasting a six figure value, the incredible emerald-cut diamond ring is worth double the amount of her first ring. Taking a close look, our experts think it’s worth around £200,000.

Unfortunately, soon after their love story began, J-Lo ended her marriage to the dancer in July 2002, citing irreconcilable differences. 

“This was Jennifer Lopez’s first emerald-cut diamond, and it’s evident she adored the design, as it wasn’t the last she wore over the years. The diamond’s quality is undoubtedly exceptional. From looking at images, I estimate it to be worth around £200,000 today.”

Ben Affleck

Value: £2,000,000 ($2,800,000)

When Ben Affleck and J-Lo announced their first relationship way back in in 2002, the world followed their every move, in awe of the A-list couple. And, they didn’t leave fans waiting for long as they got engaged that same year. However, they didn’t quite make it down the aisle the first time round, as they postponed their wedding in September 2003 and officially split in January 2004. 

Despite us being disappointed when the news broke, we couldn’t help but wonder what would happen to her incredible pink diamond engagement ring.

Flashing the huge rock in an interview with Diane Sawyer, J-Lo said: “It’s the most magnificent thing I’ve ever seen”, and she’s completely right. The engagement ring is a massive 6.10 carat radiant cut, designed by celebrity jeweller Harry Winston, which reportedly cost Ben Affleck a whopping £855,000 ($1.2 million) at the time.

However, now, as pink diamonds have soared in value, J-Lo’s ring is worth a lot more than it was back then. Our diamond experts estimate it to be worth over double the price now, valuing the ring at £2,000,000 ($2.8million).

“Some diamonds can be excellent investments, particularly pink diamonds, which are exceptionally rare and typically expensive, ranging from £50,000 to £10 million.

Pink diamonds have experienced significant value growth recently, especially after the closure of the Argyle Diamond Mine in Western Australia – the world’s primary source for pink and purple stones – at the end of 2020, which has driven prices even higher due to their increased rarity.”

Marc Anthony

Value: £3,000,000 ($3,935,000)

After splitting from Ben Affleck, Jen dated pop sensation, Marc Anthony, and yet again we saw another huge rock be unveiled. According to US Weekly, the pair first met way before this in 1998 while backstage at singer Paul Simon’ Broadway show “The Capeman,” which Anthony was starring in.

It’s also rumoured that the two reportedly dated after Jen’s first marriage to actor Ojani Noa ended in 1998.

However, when the pair finally rekindled in 2003, he didn’t let her slip away, asking her to be his wife with a sparkling Harry Winston diamond. The couple sadly announced their separation in July 2011, with their divorce being finalised in June 2014.

Alex Rodriguez

Value: £1,500,000 ($1,968,000)

Just when we thought J-Lo’s engagement ring couldn’t get any bigger, Alex Rodriguez proved us wrong.

Confirming their relationship in 2017, their first date took place at Hotel Bel Air, where Alex reportedly went to the bathroom and sent Jen a text saying: “You look sexy AF”.

For his romantic beach proposal in March 2019, Alex unveiled a very classic emerald-cut diamond with simple but elegant solitaire mounting. The diamond looks to be around 15 carats and is completely colourless with the highest clarity.

“J-Lo’s ring from Alex Rodriguez boasts a timeless design with an emerald-cut diamond, known for its elegance and distinctive light play. Unlike other diamonds that sparkle, emerald cuts reflect light in dramatic, sweeping flashes from the surface.

The impressive size of J-Lo’s diamond ensures it captures attention from across any room.”

Ben Affleck

Value: £2,600,000 ($3,000,000)

Jennifer Lopez announced her second engagement to Ben Affleck in 2022.

The superstar sharing the happy news on her website, alongside some images that revealed a show stopping green diamond ring, which was unlike anything we’d seen before.

Value: £383,000 ($500,000)

Despite owning one of the most expensive engagement rings in the celebrity world, Jen added a new sparkler to her collection in September 2023.

In photos from New York Fashion Week, she was wearing a fancy yellow cushion cut diamond ring on THAT finger, which is believed to be a third engagement ring from Ben.

“Jennifer Lopez’s second engagement ring is sensational. With an incredibly vivid colour, it looks like it could be a natural green diamond that’s been enhanced using HPHT temperature treatment, which is a well known method to change the colour of a diamond.

Just like the pink diamond engagement ring she received from Ben previously, this ring is worth millions. The centre stone is an estimated 9 to 10 carats, with an elongated cushion cut. It also looks to feature two tapered baguettes, making this a three stone ring.

Taking all this into consideration, it’s no doubt the most expensive engagement ring we’ve seen in a long time, with an estimated value of over $3,000,000.”

Jen added another ring to her collection in late 2023, which features yet another rare diamond – an 8 carat fancy yellow cushion-cut diamond, set in a halo with two side stones. Yellow diamonds are incredibly rare, comprising just 0.1% of all naturally occurring diamonds. Estimated to be worth around $500,000, it’s her least expensive ring from Ben.”
