Engagement Rings of the Famous
Engagement rings and celebrities come and go – in fact, famous couples it seems rarely stay together for long, but the rings last forever!
Some celebrities it seems are in the divorce courts minutes after flashing their engagement rings and their much publicised weddings. And before you know it, they're flashing their next engagement ring. From Elizabeth Taylor to Britney Spears, there seems to be a long tradition in Hollywood for its leading women to go through more husbands than hot dinners – and between them they must have one heck of a collection of engagement rings.
Engagement Rings – Pop Stars and Princesses
Whether it's royalty or the princesses of pop, the engagement rings of the famous always cause a stir in the press. With celebrity magazines and gossip websites discussing the size and style of the engagement rings, then paying thousands, sometimes millions for the ensuing wedding pictures and baby shots (think Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie), it's no wonder so many of us drool over the engagement rings of the rich and famous. Even if it's only window shopping – we may not have the celebrity wallet - it's fun to check out what kind of engagement rings you could buy if money were no limit.

- It was reported that Lady Diana Spencer audibly gasped when Prince Charles proposed with an 18-carat blue oval sapphire ring. The stone in the engagement ring was supported by 14 diamonds.

The Engagement Rings of Pop Princesses
- Victoria Beckham perhaps had one of the most famous, high profile weddings in celebrity history, her engagement ring consisted of a specially designed 3-carat marquise-cut diamond.
- Mary J. Blige opted for a platinum engagement ring with a 5-carat round cut diamond surrounded by a row of tiny diamonds.
