The title of the most expensive celebrity engagement ring in history still belongs to none other than Mariah Carey, thanks to the jaw-dropping sparkler she received from billionaire ex-fiancé James Packer.
Designed by luxury jeweller Wilfredo Rosado, the show-stopping ring features a 35-carat emerald-cut diamond, set in platinum and flanked by two elegant diamond baguettes. Valued at a staggering £9.4 million ($11.4 million) by the experts at Steven Stone, it’s a piece of jewellery that truly redefined the meaning of extravagant.
But 2025 isn’t holding back either. This year, we’ve already seen a wave of star-studded engagements and headline-making rings. Tom Holland and Zendaya delighted fans with their engagement announcement, and her vintage-inspired diamond ring is already setting trends. Elsewhere, Dua Lipa and Callum Turner shared their sweet news with a sleek, modern design that’s as bold as it is beautiful.
We’ve been keeping tabs on all the celebrity proposals of 2025 – and of course, the dazzling rings that came with them. Thus, we’ve been able to round up (and reveal) the five most expensive sparklers making headlines this year.
Henry Cavill & Natalie Viscuso
Value of ring: $1 million
Back in February, actor Henry Cavill made a stylish appearance on the red carpet with his partner, Natalie Viscuso, marking the couple’s first public outing since engagement rumours began circulating one month earlier.
Attending the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards, ‘The Witcher’ and Superman star looked dapper in a three piece suit and bowtie. However, it was undoubtedly Natalie’s dazzling diamond ring that captured everyone’s attention.
“Natalie’s ring showcases a breathtaking 8-carat oval cut diamond, set in a timeless solitaire setting that beautifully accentuates the stone’s brilliance. With the average celebrity engagement ring weighing in at around 4 carats, Natalie’s sparkler is truly out of this world.
The elegant yellow gold band adds a refined touch, making it a timeless symbol of love. Yellow gold bands were chosen by 35% of celebrities last year, including Girls Aloud star Nicola Roberts, further solidifying their enduring appeal.
I’d estimate the ring’s value at around $1 million – a remarkable price that reflects its exceptional craftsmanship and breathtaking beauty.”

Jake Paul & Jutta Leerdam
Value of ring: $1 million
When Jake Paul makes headlines, it’s usually for his fights – but this time, it’s all about love.
Back in March, the YouTuber-turned-boxer announced his engagement to Olympic speed skater Jutta Leerdam.
The couple shared the exciting news in a joint Instagram post, featuring a stunning carousel of photos. Set against a breathtaking backdrop adorned with white flowers and candles, one standout shot captures Jutta proudly extending her hand, showing off her dazzling new diamond ring.
“Jake Paul proposed with a breathtaking 8-carat oval-cut diamond ring. The dazzling centre-piece is set in a three-stone design, flanked by elegant half-moon diamond side stones and perched on a pavé diamond band.
With the average celebrity engagement ring weighing around 4 carats, Jutta’s 8-carat stunner is truly a showstopper. But beyond its breathtaking appearance, the ring is rich in symbolism. Representing a promise of forever, its oval shape is often associated with creativity and boldness – an especially fitting choice for Jutta, whose career as a speed skater is built on taking risks.
I’d estimate its value at no less than $1 million.”

Lainey Wilson and Devlin Hodges
Value of ring: $565,000 (£450,000)
Lainey Wilson and Devlin Hodges announced their engagement back in February, but it wasn’t until a date night in April that we got a proper glimpse of Lainey’s stunning engagement ring.
Devlin shared a series of photos to his Instagram feed from a Nashville rooftop, where he and his fiancée were dressed to impress in matching cowboy hats, boots, and sunglasses – the country music star’s engagement ring catching the sunlight and stealing the show.
“Designed by Hollie Winter Jewellery, Lainey’s engagement ring is nothing short of spectacular. Crafted in yellow gold, it features a dazzling cluster of diamonds that command attention.
I’d estimate the show-stopping sparkler to be worth around £455,000.”

Zendaya & Tom Holland
Value of ring: $300,000
Zendaya made a stunning entrance at the Golden Globes, stealing the spotlight not just with her gorgeous outfit but with what appeared to be an engagement ring on that finger.
Walking the red carpet solo, the actress turned heads in a custom Louis Vuitton gown, accessorised with Bulgari jewellery, and of course, a striking diamond ring that set tongues wagging.
Zendaya and her boyfriend, Tom Holland, first crossed paths on the set of ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ in 2016, and while they kept their romance under wraps for years, the couple went public about their relationship in 2021. Despite their efforts to stay out of the spotlight, rumours about an engagement had been swirling for some time.
“When Zendaya steps onto the red carpet, all eyes are inevitably on her – and last night’s Golden Globes were no exception. This time, it was the stunning sparkler on her wedding finger that had everyone buzzing.
Zendaya’s ring showcases a 6 carat cushion-cut diamond in a timeless solitaire setting, elegantly perched on a yellow gold band. Known for its antique-inspired design, the cushion-cut diamond is revered for its unique blend of elegance and romance. It’s said to symbolise individuality, adventure, and tradition – qualities that align perfectly with Zendaya’s distinctive style.
The ring appears to be a button-back engagement design, featuring a button-shaped metal piece at the back of the setting. This signature design by renowned London jeweller Jessica McCormack is crafted to ensure the diamond or gemstone sits comfortably against the skin. Channing Tatum proposed to Zoe Kravitz with a similar ring, though her version features a black metal backing, while Zendaya’s is likely clear or white.
I’d estimate the exquisite piece to be worth $300,000, though I wouldn’t be surprised if it was worth even more.”

Simu Liu & Allison Hsu
Value of ring: $300,000
It looks like the star of Marvel’s ‘Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings’ has made it eleven – Simu Liu has announced his engagement to longtime partner Allison Hsu.
The couple shared the joyful news on Instagram in May, posting a series of heartwarming photos from the romantic proposal, along with a glimpse of Allison’s stunning diamond engagement ring.
“Allison’s engagement ring from Simu features a breathtaking oval-cut diamond, estimated to weigh between 8 to 10 carats. The striking stone is set on a yellow gold band in a classic solitaire setting, known for its simplicity and timeless elegance. This style allows the diamond to truly shine, with no distractions – putting the spotlight squarely on the stone.
Oval-cut diamonds remain a top choice among celebrities, with 38% of stars selecting this shape for their engagement rings last year. Earlier this year, Natalie Viscuso was gifted an impressive 8-carat oval-cut diamond by actor Henry Cavill.
Based on its size and design, I’d estimate Allison’s ring to be valued at around $300,000.”
