Out on a date with Peter Crouch, Abbey Clancy, the lingerie model was seen wearing her diamond engagement ring. Does this mean that all is right between them? They were seen out together for the first time since the news about Peter Crouch hit the public gaze. However, they were seen to be enjoying each otherâs company and were at LâAtelier, the posh Soho restaurant.
The diamond dazzler was off her finger for quite a while soon after Peter Crouch was reported to have paid a teenage hooker. She wasnât seen around with him either and sources said she was devastated. They seem to have gotten over it now though and it looks like they have patched up things and cleared misunderstandings between them.
The restaurant is a double Michelin-starred one and is known for its caviar, foie gras and quail. It is one of Londonâs hot spots and famous for its romantic dinners. If thatâs the case, it augurs well for the couple.

When Marie Nordmann got to 40 and felt that she wasnât going to get married, she decided that she didnât need anyone to give her a wedding ring â she could do so herself. The Internet technology specialist began wearing one and then, recently, which is five years later, she decided that she would like a really great diamond ring to wear on her right hand and so the search began because she didnât want just any old ring.
Itâs taken her two years to design the exact ring that she wanted. The diamond, she says, came from a friend who was selling it when she got a divorce. She got the diamond set in gold with bezels of platinum. The large diamond is Ÿ carat while the two smaller diamonds she used are œ a carat. There was a lot of thought that went into this ring which she wanted to make very special.
Marie works as a liaison resource between developers of software and other businesses and helps them fine tune programmes. She also writes a blog and is active on Facebook. This diamond ring that she has designed for herself has become her favourite jewellery piece.

Girlfriend or fiancĂ©e, that is the question. Kiefer Sutherland and his girlfriend Siobhan are holidaying in Italy and it looks like sheâs wearing a diamond ring on her ring finger. They were spotted having dinner out and the diamond ring flashed on her finger for the world to see.
If he is going to get married, this will be Kiefer Sutherlandâs third marriage. He was also once engaged to Julia Roberts who walked out on him a few days before the wedding. We hope the 43 year old actor will find happiness this time around.
Siobhan works with Allure magazine and she is their style director. Sheâs been with Kiefer Sutherland for two years now and they were seen window shopping at a jewellerâs. Were they looking for wedding rings, perhaps? Heâs taking a break after completing the TV series 24 and is now shooting for the film Melancholia opposite Kirsten Dunst.

It looks like Kate Moss and her fiancĂ© Jamie Hince have got married â well, it must have been a very secret affair considering no oneâs got a whiff of it yet, except for the fact that both of them seem to be wearing wedding bands â and matching ones, too. Not just that, they were seen to be wearing matching tattoos as well on their wrists and they were tattoos of anchors.
Both Kate and Jamie were wearing silver rings and she was wearing it over her engagement ring â a beautiful diamond ring. The couple has been holidaying in Italy for two weeks. Sources say that they have bought a place on Stromboli Island in Italy because they just love the volcanic island.
The couple has been together for three years now and it has been noticed that Jamie has a good and stabilizing effect on Kate. They were introduced to each other by Sadie Frost and they have been together since then even though rumours of rows abound. Kateâs daughter by an earlier relationship and Jamie are also said to get on very well together. They got engaged on her birthday when Jamie flew to the Caribbean to propose to her.

Matt Katz of Australia didnât just want any diamond engagement ring. He wanted to put a lot of himself into this token of love so he decided to make his own engagement ring for his girlfriend. It was a painstaking process and not many men can do it â but he had set his heart on doing just that so he learned all about it and went through the different processes to come up with a stunning solitaire diamond ring.
First, he had to bend the band of gold â you need to choose the right tools for this and you need to decide what metal you need â eco-friendly recycled metal is always a great choice. Then you need to decide what stone to use â a diamond is always best, but even here, the choice is huge when it comes to shape, cut and weight. The setting for the diamond is vital and needs to be strong so the diamond wonât easily slip out of it. The setting and the ring have to be soldered well together so it seems seamless. Then, itâs time to set the stone. Once that is done, you need to polish the engagement ring so it looks its dazzling best.
Well, most men as we said, prefer to take the easy way and go look at a reputed diamond store to choose the engagement ring. The choice is huge, the finish perfect and you know you can go back to them if there is a problem. However, full marks to the DIY man for wanting this to be a personal gift from the heart.

In Los Angeles, there was a strange crime reported. Apparently a man from Shreveport stole a credit card from his girlfriend and bought an engagement ring â for her! That was the reason for his theft â so he could afford to buy her an engagement ring. The strange thing is, why did he steal the credit card from her?
Maybe because it just happened that he had access to her purse and the credit card was right there. Maybe it was an impulsive thing and when he saw that credit card, he just couldnât help himself but decided to use it to buy the ring. The credit card belonged to her boss and it was in her purse and he just used it to go out and buy what he wanted.
The man is now in a correction centre and a bond â a rather large one has been set. Itâs just not on stealing your fiancĂ©eâs bossâs card from her purse to buy her an engagement ring!

Thereâs a gold engagement ring that has been found in Langley in British Columbia, Canada but thus far, no one has come forward to claim the ring. The engagement ring has a solitaire diamond in a round cut set in the centre and the setting is yellow gold. The ring is obviously very new as the price tag is still attached to it. So did some man buy it, hoping to ask the girl of his dreams to marry him and then dropped it somewhere?
Where was it found? It was found in a petrol station at Mohawk when a man stopped to fill air in his tyres. Suddenly, he noticed something on the ground, shining and when he picked it up, he saw it was a yellow gold diamond ring with, as we said, the price tag still attached.
So many engagement rings are lost all over the world and yet, there are some good souls who find them and look for their owners because they know just how sentimental in value an engagement ring can be. This, in spite of the fact that in most cases, the diamond alone will fetch a pretty penny.

Caoimhe Guilfoyle, of Big Brother fame does not wear an engagement ring on her finger but she says that marriage plans with Dave Mulligan, her boyfriend are on. However she does admit that it was possible that their engagement could be a rather long one. The engagement that she says is on without the engagement ting.
Rumour has it that she proposed to boyfriend Dave on the phone from the showâs sets a couple of weeks before she had a row with someone on the show and walked out. Sheâs 22 and he is 26 and she says they have even done a shoot together posing as an engaged couple. Are they going to airbrush the engagement ring in, we wonder?
Caoimhe stayed in the Big Brother house for 42 days and she walked out of it last month and she has no regrets. However, she does admit that all said and done it was a great experience but she was happy to leave it and get back to Dave.

There he was, all set to propose when nature disposed of his plans. He had the over ÂŁ5500 diamond engagement ring in his hand and he was feeling so romantic and pleased with himself considering he had set this up to be different and special. He had planned to slip the ring onto his girlfriendâs finger on the jetty in South Yarmouth in the US. He attached the ring to a sand dollar and when the girlfriend hopefully found it, she would see the ring too and he could propose.
Trust women to change the best laid plans. She did find the sand dollar but she was so excited seeing the ring that she dropped the sand dollar and the ring into the water. So even though they tried searching, the surf claimed the engagement ring as well as his carefully laid plan.
They were lucky that the ring was insured but we wonder how many more men have planned things so well and lost their rings. It might be so much better if they just hid a note saying âWill you marry me?â in such places and take out the ring from their pockets when the girl said âYesâ.

Mengagement rings have been making news for the past few years now and now we have the famous Canadian singer sporting one, very proudly. He tells us that it is the custom in Argentina for men to wear an engagement ring too â and his fiancĂ©e is from there so he feels very comfortable doing just that.
The Call Me Responsible singer is doing a singing tour in Canada, his country and he looked very happy. His fiancĂ©e is actress Luisana Loreley Lopilato de la Torre from Argentina and they got engaged last November. Heâs 34 and sheâs 23 and they both seem ecstatic.
Of course, she might not get her own way in everything like the engagement ring. Apparently she wants any children they might have to be named after the Twilight saga characters but Michael says he isnât having any of that. Nor is he going to go along with her suggestion of a white horse at the ceremony.

So she went out and got herself her own engagement ring and sources say it is an expensive diamond ring with a 3-carat diamond. In this day and age, that might not seem unseemly except that her fiancĂ© hasnât got his divorce from his previous wife yet. So is the engagement ring in anticipation of the divorce or is she telling him to get on with it and get married to her soon?
Jessica has been with Eric Johnson for just three weeks and one wonders if that isnât a little too soon to know that the person is the one. But Jessica insists she does and who is anyone to argue with her? It also transpires that she just wants to get married and this is probably the first step towards that end.
Well, she has all the money one could want and if she wants to buy herself a ring, so be it. According to Ericâs wife, heâs broke and while he did live with her earlier, she thinks he is now living with Jessica. No doubt the ring will be flaunted as soon as the divorce is a fact.
