After a host of A-listers such as Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez, Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner had a hush-hush wedding, Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani is the latest celebrity pair to join the league of celebrities, who have married in secret. While the duo never kept their relationship under wraps, they’ve managed to take everyone by a mild surprise with their secret nuptials. Perhaps, they had been dropping hints all this while but nobody noticed.

The Wedding Announcement

On June 11, Gwen Stefani on her Instagram posted a snap where she was seen sipping a glass of wine and holding a gift. Stefani, who was sporting a ring, titled the picture with ‘SHE’S GETTING MARRIIEEEED.’ In October 2020, the duo had announced their engagement after dating each other for close to five years. According to a 2019 report by People Magazine, Stefani had stalled her marriage with Shelton as she was waiting to get done with her marriage annulment with Rossdale. Before meeting each other, Stefani was married to Gavin Rossdale while Shelton was wedded to Miranda Lambert. They walked out of their respective marriages in 2015, almost at the same time.

Happiness Overload

As per the latest People exclusive, both of them are ‘ecstatic’ about their wedding and could not wait to tie the knot. The quoted sources said that they seem excited about their summer wedding and are waiting for the pandemic situation to improve so that their near and dear ones could be invited too. On June 11, Gwen Stefani in a selfie video had shared that she was ‘kidnapped’ for a surprise bridal shower. The insider also shared that Gwen’s children will be very involved on their big day. If we put two and two together, chances are the pair is already married through an intimate ceremony. It is just a matter of time before images from their wedding album surface on the Internet for everyone to see.

It’s common for love and engagement rings to go hand in hand. While the look of the engagement ring is important to some, it’s often key for celebrities. Some of them have gone above and beyond with engagement rings in the past, and they have even shared their unique stories about how they met “the one” in Hollywood.

No Engagement Ring is Like Any Other

No two engagement rings are the same, even when it comes to their value. Some celebrity engagement rings range from $150,000 to a ginormous $5 million. An engagement ring of such great worth becomes the center of attention, and of course, for a good reason. Here are some of the most extravagant engagement rings of all time:

1. Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier III

The American starlet, Grace Kelly, met Prince Rainier III of Monaco for the first time at the 1955 Cannes Film Festival in France. After a year-long courtship, Prince Rainier proposed with a 10.47-carat emerald-cut diamond ring that was made by Cartier. Right now, it’s estimated to be worth a total of $4.3 million. They officially married in 1956, a year later, and she became the Princess of Monaco.

2. Victoria Beckham and David Beckham

Victoria and David Beckham are one of the most famous couples in the U.K. People are not only fans of the couple but also of Victoria’s engagement ring. All 14 of them. However, one, in particular, caught people’s eye as it is a pear-cut diamond with a platinum pave band. It has 17 carats.

3. Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher

The two on-screen lovers from That ‘70s Show got together officially in 2012. Since then, they’ve had two children together. In 2016, Mila Kunis talked about her engagement ring and stated that even though it’s beautiful, she doesn’t wear it. It has an estimated value of $250,000.

4. Beyoncé and Jay-Z

Queen B and Jay-Z’s love story goes on and on. The duo got married in 2008, and the rapper gave Bey a whopping 18-carat, an octagon-cut diamond that is worth $5 million. It’s known to be one of the most expensive celebrity engagement rings.

5. Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez

While J.Lo and Alex met in 2005, they didn’t start dating until 2017, and in March 2019, they were engaged. Jennifer’s ring surely takes the cake as it’s 20-carats and is an emerald-cut diamond that’s worth a minimum of $4.5 million.
