52 of the most stunning celebrity engagement rings ever
There's nothing quite like celebrity engagement rings to give you the ultimate in sparkler inspiration. Effortlessly gorgeous pictures of the couple, a string of heartfelt messages and, of course, the bling itself – often bigger, sparklier and more lavish than we could ever imagine. So you can't blame us for keeping track of some of the most stunning celebrity engagement rings out there – they're some of our favourite pictures to look at.
Fortunately for us, love is definitely in the air right now – in fact, we've been pretty spoilt for choice when it comes to recent celeb proposals in the last few months. Take Ashley Benson's gorgeous solitaire sparkler from her now-husband Brandon Davis, while Thom Evans presented Nicole Scherzinger with a classic diamond band during his beach proposal in summer. And that's just the beginning.
Remember when Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown surprised fans in April with her engagement to Jake Bongiovi? In true celebrity engagement announcement style, she shared some beautiful photos as she sported her new diamond ring. “I've loved you three summers now, honey, I want 'em all,” she adorably wrote in the caption.

A lot of Hollywood's emerging talent have also said “yes”, and had a fancy ring to show for it – including Rebel Wilson and her wife-to-be Ramona Agruma, and the ever-adorable Kate Bosworth and Justin Long.
And it hasn't just been the engagement rings this year that have blown our minds. One of our favourites of all time has to be Hailey Bieber's. After months spent trying to get a glimpse of her rock, the model was officially photographed for the 2018 September issue of Vogue Mexico, complete with her engagement ring, and it was even bigger than we first imagined.
In the candid black and white photoshoot, the ring is unsurprisingly the main focal point as she super casually shows off her oval stone and 18K gold band. Jack Solow, of New York City-based Solow & Co. Inc. Diamond Jewelers, designed the ring and previously revealed that having the 18K gold band was a super important feature to Hailey.
"It was about the diamond. I think he [Justin] knew very well what Baldwin wanted in a ring, but he wanted it very much to be about a very special diamond. He left it in my hands to try and select the most beautiful diamond for someone like Hailey." he told Glamour US.

Other rings we're obsessing over are those belonging to Hilary Duff, Katherine Schwarznegger and Nicola Peltz.
