8 Celebrities With Multiple Engagement Rings, Like Kate Hudson, Because 4 Carats Is Apparently Never Enough
When agreeing to join your partner in a lifelong union, there is typically a ring involved, traditionally embellished with a diamond or some sort of gem. For a cherished few celebrities, however, one ring simply won't cut it. Try two, three, or even eight baubles on that special finger — multiple engagement rings may be the next big jewelry trend, if Kate Hudson and Amber Heard's latest, additional accoutrements are any indication. Here are eight celebrities who opted for more than one diamond-encrusted symbol of their eternal love.
Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson’s engagement to Muse crooner Matthew Bellamy was marked by an emerald cut diamond which weighed in at a reported nine carats. Its rumored replacement, snapped on Hudson’s hand at the Baby2Baby Gala this week, features a similarly-sized statement emerald framed in a dusting of diamonds.
Amber Heard
Johnny Depp’s partner-in-crime struck gold when she determined her striking circular-cut diamond ring was too big, scoring a second ring — and possibly third — bauble out of the deal.
Elizabeth Taylor
The late Elizabeth Taylor secured nearly ten engagement rings over the course of her lifetime, cementing her status as the late empress of statement gems. Each astounding trinket symbolized one of Taylor’s historic romances, from a 4-carat band courtesy of Conrad Hilton to her 33.19-carat Asscher Cut Krupp Diamond, bestowed upon her by Richard Burton.
Jessica Biel
Though Jessica Biel only snagged one engagement ring by The Jewelers of Las Vegas from husband Justin Timberlake — the horror! — she received a small collection of wedding bands upon the couple’s union.
Rachel Zoe
The mother of two added another ring to her finger after birthing son Skyler, now three. The 10-carat cushion-cut Neil Lane ring may have been labeled a “push gift” by Zoe’s husband Rodger Berman, but in reality it’s an engagement ring 2.0.
Reese Witherspoon
After husband Jim Toth proposed marriage to Reese Witherspoon with a 4-carat, 62-faceted Ashoka diamond, the couple built on the ring’s beauty with a stacked three-band eternity wedding ring.
Miranda Kerr
Miranda Kerr was presented a beautiful double-banded engagement ring by former love Orlando Bloom, giving her hand the appearance of two statement stunners.
Megan Fox
After living every newly engaged couple’s nightmare and losing her first engagement ring on the picturesque Hawaiian coastline where her now-husband Brian Austin Green proposed, Megan Fox received a second band complete with a radiant-cut 3-carat diamond as a consolation prize. I imagine Fox wasn’t exceptionally broken up about the loss given its substitute.
