No, Michael Clarke’s Ex Did Not Flush Down Engagement Ring
Thursday, August 5th, 2010We have it right from the horse’s mouth. Australian cricketer Michael Clarke’s ex-fiancée did not flush her engagement ring as was reported. There had been a huge media splash about how Lara Bingle had flushed her very expensive diamond engagement ring down the toilet bowl when they had broken up. She had apparently done this when the couple were sharing an apartment in Bondi. However, the cricketer says it’s not true.
According to Michael Clarke, the expensive diamond ring is in a very safe place and this was all just a crazy rumour. Now one wonders why he didn’t deny the rumours right then when it happened. However, he has now told the Daily Telegraph that he could guarantee that it didn’t go down the toilet. He’s dismissed the whole thing as a brilliant rumour.
The couple had been together for three years and they split in March. Lara is a model and the relationship has been a turbulent one, with a lot of fodder for the press. Finally, they broke it off over the telephone and Michael Clarke was said to be devastated. He had hoped they could find closure in a dignified way but Lara did a tell-all interview after which there really was no going back.
