Selena Gomez recently took to Instagram to announce her engagement to boyfriend Benny Blanco, putting an end to months of speculation surrounding their plans to tie the knot.
The joyful news was shared with a photo of her hand, showcasing a stunning diamond engagement ring on her finger. She captioned the post: “forever begins now..”
In addition to the ring shot, Selena shared a picture of herself sitting on a picnic blanket, enjoying Taco Bell, as well as a heartwarming image of the couple embracing.
Leading diamond experts at UK retailer Steven Stone were eager to analyse Selena’s gorgeous sparkler, offering insights into everything from its estimated value to the deeply sentimental significance behind Benny’s thoughtful choice.
“Selena’s exquisite sparkler showcases a stunning 4-carat marquise-cut diamond, a true symbol of elegance and luxury. Its elongated shape holds special meaning for Selena, as it subtly alludes to the lyrics from her song ‘Good for You’, a personal touch from Benny.
With meticulously crafted facets that come together to create an exceptional brilliance, the centre stone is complimented by diamond-encrusted shoulders. While marquise-cut diamonds are less common than the more traditional round or cushion cuts, they are highly coveted by those with a taste for individuality and distinction. Coleen Rooney received a 10 carat diamond engagement ring worth $400,000 from hubby Wayne for her 21st birthday.
Given its exceptional beauty and craftsmanship, Selena’s ring is likely to be worth around $200,000.”
