Ten years to the day that they became husband and wife, in a star-studded wedding at Oxfordshire’s grand Blenheim Palace, the Rochelle and Marvin Humes have reaffirmed their enduring love for one another in front of 75 family and close friends.
When Rochelle took to Instagram to share a photo of the popular couples hands on top of each other, engagement and wedding ring specialists at UK retailer Steven Stone couldn’t wait to have a good look at her engagement ring.
“When Rochelle shared photos from her vow renewal, we couldn’t take our eyes off her engagement ring – it features a stunning 5 carat oval diamond, set in platinum. Platinum engagement and wedding rings always make a statement as they symbolise exclusivity.
Offering the sparkle of round stones in a dazzling silhouette, oval cuts were the most popular shape for celebrity engagements in 2021. Rochelle’s in good company – with the likes of Kourtney Kardashian, Blake Lively, Kate Middleton and Perrie Edwards also sporting the shape. The curved shape of oval cut diamonds is perfect for those with an active lifestyle like Rochelle’s because it doesn’t contain any pointed edges.
I’d estimate Rochelle’s engagement ring to be worth £222,500 which is a great deal more than her original heart shaped engagement ring, which Marvin put into a necklace for her on her 30th birthday.”

This isn’t Rochelle’s first engagement ring from Marvin – her original ring boasted a large sparkling heart shaped diamond surrounded by smaller round brilliant diamonds. So, what happened to it?
Zack commented: “Rochelle’s original engagement ring was worth £45,500, which is a great deal less than her new one.
Upon gifting her the new ring on her 30th birthday, Marvin had Rochelle’s original heart shaped ring made into a necklace. Heart shaped diamonds are an everlasting emblem of love, so it’s incredibly sentimental that he’s ensured that Rochelle can still wear hers.“
