With the young stars, you never know. Is that an engagement ring on their finger or do they just wear a ring on that finger whenever they feel like it or do they get a kick out of messing with the press? It’s hard to tell because there are many of them who just don’t seem to think anything of being seen around town with a ring on that special finger and a few days later, the ring isn’t seen anymore and the press and their fans are left baffled about why they do the things they do. Of course, it gets them a lot of publicity as speculation runs rife – so maybe they do know what they are doing, after all.
Is it the same case with Miley Cyrus? She was seen around town wearing what looked like a diamond engagement ring. Well, at least it was a huge diamond ring on that finger – you know which one. She was on her way to meet Liam Hemsworth for lunch dressed down as much as she could so it was no wonder that many did not notice the dazzling diamond ring on her finger. Let’s face it, she and Liam have been together for over two years now and that says something about the stability of their relationship. The Disney star looks like she and her co-star in The Last Song are all set to tie the knot.
However, it could also be that she wants to make it a done deal before The Hunger Games is released. It looks like Liam is going to be a very popular actor after that so is she trying to make sure that he is all tied up before that happens? She did throw him a huge birthday party with a cake that caused a lot of comment so maybe she is preparing for a big day sometime soon.

Has it become fashionable in Hollywood to be seen with your wedding ring on even after you’ve separated and you are on the road to divorce? There are many – both men and women celebrities that seem to like the idea of keeping their wedding ring on almost as though they want to let the world know that they have not moved on from their marriage. Heidi Klum is the latest on the bandwagon and she is still wearing her ring though the media is full of reports of how she and Seal have been having huge marriage problems and they have separated.
And yet, pictures have surfaced of Heidi dropping her kids off for a karate class with her wedding ring very much on her finger. What she did do however, was to turn the ring around so the diamond wasn’t visible. So why is she wearing it? For the sake of the kids? The strange thing is, Seal has also said that he will wear his wedding ring because he feels that a couple separating does not mean that the wedding ring should be removed at once.
One wonders if this is going to be a new trend among celebrities. Considering the huge amounts they spend on their engagement rings and wedding rings, will they keep them on after they go their separate ways? What if a person gets married four or five times – quite common in their world – will their fingers then be decorated with rings like notches on a totem pole? Food for thought indeed!

There seems to be an app for just about everything today. An app to message, an app to remind you of what to do, an app to list your tasks, an app to make your appliances more intelligent and one wonders how long it will be before there’s an app that will breathe and do everything else for you! So why should engagement rings be left out in the cold?
There’s a jeweller who has an app now that makes choosing engagement rings much easier. Taking today’s audience into account, this app is available for iPhones, Android phones as well as for social networking sites like Facebook. So what does this app help you do? It lets you rotate the image of the diamond engagement ring any which way you want so you can see it from all and any angle. It also lets you view the engagement ring as it would look on a hand. The great thing about is the fact that there are so many options when it comes to angles, types and changing things around like the size of the diamond or the setting to see how it would look in every metal.
While choosing an engagement ring today, men want everyone’s opinions – their friends, family et al seem to be involved in the decision-making process. Maybe that is what the speed of technology has done to people – make them able to connect so fast that they want everyone they know to come on board when it means making a decision like this. When there is an incredible app like this one, it means the person can choose the options and send it off immediately to anyone whose opinion they value and wait a few minutes for a decision. For a generation that shares every single waking moment with an audience, this is a very welcome app indeed.

The Rivergate Shopping Centre has organised something really special for Valentine’s Day. What more could lovers ask for than a beautiful diamond engagement ring free? That’s what the winning couple will get in the special contest that they have organised. Considering that Valentine’s Day is just a couple of weeks away, couples who are thinking about getting married might be wise to enter this contest and see if they are the ones who get lucky.
The diamond engagement ring is worth ÂŁ2000 and any couple knows that is not something to be scoffed at. The Centre has joined hands with the John Stewart Jewellers and their contest is called the Mr. And Mrs. Contest. The couples who enter the contest will have to star in a quiz show and this show has been designed along the lines of a similar one way back in the seventies. Once the field has been narrowed down to five couples, there will be a live event in which all will have to participate and the winners can get engaged right there at the event with the diamond ring they win.
According to the organisers, the ring is stunning and it’s going to be a really lucky couple who will be winning it. A ring to propose with, a live TV appearance and even better, a live event – could a couple really ask for more? For couples who want to take a look at the ring before they decide to enter the contest, the ring is on display at the jeweller’s show window. What a wonderful idea for Valentine’s Day, the festival for lovers!

It looks like there’s trouble brewing in the Alex Reid and Chantelle Houghton relationship. And less than a month ago, she was aired on TV flaunting both her engagement ring and her pregnant status. So what happened to make this sudden U-turn in the affair? Or is it just a speed breaker and will things be smooth sailing again? They have been together for nine months now and it looked like the news of a baby on the way would make them both very happy but news of Chantelle taking off her ring has hit the media.
Now why would Chantelle take off her engagement ring unless there were serious problems? Apparently, there’s been a lot of strain in the relationship for some time now even though she seems to have put on a brave front and both seem to have showed the world that all was well. With the removing of the engagement ring, it looked like she was all set to end it. However, their spokespeople tell the media that everything is all right and they are waiting with eagerness for the baby to be born. This, after Chantelle was seen storming out of the house after a row.
Just yesterday, however, she came forward and said things were fine and the winner of Celebrity Big Brother seemed very happy the way things were, tweeting about what she dismissed as rumours and saying that she removed her ring because it’s expensive and she is scared of being mugged or losing it.

Is there excitement or cynicism about Argwas having been seen at a jewellery store looking at diamond rings? He was spotted at a Loughton jeweller a few days ago and we wonder how the TV cameras were there so conveniently so the world could know about this move. All this of course, just before the beginning of the new TOWIE series – well, you can add two and two and see where it goes!
While he was examining the engagement rings, he was also seen to be texting someone no doubt sending them pictures and asking for their opinions. Was he sending the texts to a friend or was he asking Lydia? After all, she does have a lot of style and she wouldn’t want a diamond engagement ring that didn’t quite match up to what she expected.
What stood out was that Arg looked like the whole thing was one boring chore and not something that he was excited about. Considering that the two are supposed to be moving in together, it seems a bit strange that he is so untouched by any sense of excitement. There was a strong rumour recently that Lydia was pregnant but a few days ago, the couple denied it. This, after tweets from Arg about a little one on the way. Can you expect fans to be other than cynical about all these rumours, putting them all down as just ways of getting eyeballs for the show.

How far will people go to get an engagement ring that is unique? This man went the wholeni9ne yards and more because he knew his girlfriend was a huge Indiana Jones fan and he wanted to show just how much he cared enough to give her something that she would treasure. So he set out to design a ring that would be like no other but would be custom made and not off the shelf.
First, the engagement ring and then the proposal. He designed the ring with a bullwhip and then went on to look for a jewellery designer in Las Vegas, America to make it for him. It is a yellow diamond engagement ring and the colour of the diamond is reminiscent of the Idol in the series. The Idol might not ring a bell for everyone even if one has seen the movie or movies as the case may be but for an avid fan, it would be just the right button to push. And yellow happens to be her favourite colour. However, the ring took some time coming so here’s how the proposal went.
The guy proposed with a ring box and when the girl said Yes, he gave it to her. She opened it to find just sand inside the box and any other woman might have said No but not her. She understood the significance. This was to buy time till the ring got ready. When he did get the ring, he made a box fashioned out of old stuff to make it look like ruins inside and gave it to her with four other boxes, asking her to choose and choose wisely as it happens in the movie. If he has gone to so much trouble over the ring, one wonders what their wedding theme will be like!

Ever since business tycoon Nick Candy proposed to Holly Valance in the Maldives over the Christmas/New Year break, all eyes have been on her ring finger as she sashays forth between dos and events in London. However, she seems to be rather shy of flaunting it and even when Nick was with her, there were occasions when her ring was not on her finger.
She was seen at the Radio Times Cover Party and at the Faberge Big Egg Hunt party which was held at Quintessentially. The party kicked off the egg hunt all over London and these proceeds will go towards a charity for children and there are many celebrities who have been involved in this project. Her huge diamond engagement ring, however, seems to be off her finger for most of the time since they have got back after their holiday. So the only explanation seems to be that it has gone to be resized. With such a huge diamond, they wouldn’t want to take the chance of the ring slipping off just because it is a tad loose.
The engagement ring was very much on again at the Radio Times party and she was all dressed up too – in gold with shiny shoes with her ring flashing as she walked into Claridge’s for the party. The two of them met in 2009 and they moved in together the following year and she was really happy – if you go by her excited tweets when he proposed to her in the Maldives just before Christmas. The billionaire tycoon and she seem to be made for each other and are so happy in each other’s company.

The ring went missing a little before Christmas Day last year and the couple from Florida who it belonged to wanted to solve the mystery of the missing ring. The ring had been on the dresser, in a cup and it had disappeared. So the couple hired a private detective who had been a policeman to help them get the ring back. They also announced a huge reward.
The policeman began by giving all the people who could have been in the house a polygraph test. Simultaneously, he also scoured all the pawn shops in the neighbourhood and then went further afield, even to New York. After all, anyone would remember an emerald cut 11-carat diamond engagement ring that had been put up for sale. The cleaning lady in the house failed the test and he realised that she was a suspect. However, she avoided him and the police had to be called in to take her for questioning.
She had taken the diamond ring and sold it to buy food and Christmas presents for her children and as well as pay off some bills. She had taken it to a jeweller and told him that she had inherited from an aunt who died. She has been arrested and charged. The jeweller got the reward money and the couple are happy that they hired a private detective to help them find the ring which is not just valuable but also of great sentimental value to them.

So they are engaged but no one has seen the engagement ring yet. And while the news is doing the rounds on the Internet, it has not been officially confirmed so everyone is still waiting for the stars’ spokespeople to officially announce the news. The couple were on vacation in Montana over the Christmas break and it looks like this was the perfect place for a proposal. Why perfect? Because Jessica is a big fan of snowboarding. And Justin’s adored grandmother seems to have confirmed the news over the phone.
The engagement ring is supposed to be custom designed. Well, we’ll never know till we actually see Jessica wearing the ring but sources say that this is what it is. We are guessing enough people know both the actors to make this assumption – or did a bit of news leak out? Justin seems to be doing well on the designing front, what with the William Rast clothes line. So maybe one can assume that he put his creative talents to good use with the engagement ring too. They are both classy people so it does not look like the ring will be flashing – more on the lines of elegant and expensive.
The two stars have both led glamorous lives. Justin has made a name for himself as a singer and now as an actor as well. Jessica has acted and won acclaim in a number of hit movies. They both seem like they were meant for each other and as they are both so popular, it looks like there will be many wishing them all the best.

Amelia, star of X Factor had an engagement ring sent to her and it was from one of her fans who admired her very much. There are many people no doubt who get proposed to by fans especially when they are huge celebrities but how many get an engagement ring sent to them? She’s very sweet though and it didn’t make her angry and she sent out a message letting the fan down as lightly as possible saying that she had a great deal of work in the coming year and that means there was no way she could even think about getting married in the near future.
The engagement ring was obviously made with her in mind. Amelia is known for her shock of pink hair and the engagement ring was a pink crystal set in silver. It was sent to where she lives in London. Of course, she just does not know what to do with it now that she has received it and she is wondering whether to email the person or send it back. Amelia does not obviously want to hurt anyone’s feelings but would she really want to keep the ring?
Amelia has been linked to many of the guys on the show and who she has worked with but she has clarified things saying that even if she wanted to, she just does not have the time for a relationship. She hangs out with boys all the time because she is quite comfortable with them as she grew up with two brothers who are older than her. The X Factor tour will kick off soon and she is going to be one very busy girl but this time, she did take a break for the holidays and enjoyed Christmas and New Year.
