The year 2025 has firmly established itself as the era of the spectacular celebrity engagement, where subtlety has been decisively cast aside in favour of breathtaking, headline-grabling sparklers. Jewellery expert Justin Daughters at the renowned London firm Berganza has curated the definitive list of the year's top ten priciest rings, showcasing a dazzling array of designs where modern luxury knows no bounds.
The Million-Pound Masterpieces
Topping the prestigious list is Georgina Rodríguez, whose engagement to football icon Cristiano Ronaldo in August was marked by a ring valued between £1 million and £1.5 million. After eight years together, Rodríguez shared the news on Instagram with the caption, 'Yes I do. In this and in all my lives,' alongside a photo of the stunning piece. Justin Daughters confirmed its premier position, describing it as 'one of the most extravagant engagement rings seen in recent years.' The design centres on an enormous oval-cut diamond, estimated at 10 to 15 carats, set on a platinum or white-gold band with tapered side stones.
Claiming the runner-up spot is model Winnie Harlow. Her fiancé, NBA star Kyle Kuzma, proposed in February during a private flight to the Turks and Caicos with a lavish setup of roses and champagne. He presented an 8.5-carat oval-cut diamond, which he personally designed over three months. The ring, valued between £750,000 and £1 million, features a substantial oval centre stone framed by two pear-shaped side diamonds in a classic three-stone arrangement symbolising 'past, present, and future.'
Hollywood's Romantic Sparklers
In third place is actress and style icon Zendaya, who became engaged to Tom Holland over the Christmas holidays in a private, intimate setting. She later debuted the ring at the Golden Globe Awards. The classic round brilliant-cut diamond, likely between 5 and 6 carats, is estimated to be worth £400,000 to £800,000 and is set on a delicate yellow or rose-gold band.
Securing fourth place is Claudia Sulewski, who became engaged to musician Finneas O'Connell in September after seven years together. The music producer, known for his work with sister Billie Eilish, proposed with a stunning 6-carat antique-style diamond. The ring is valued between £500,000 and £800,000.
Singer Normani lands in fifth position with a dazzling oval diamond worth £400,000 to £600,000. Her fiancé, NFL star DK Metcalf, announced their engagement during a press conference in March, prompting him to say, 'She's right there. Hold that ring up, baby.' The ring features a three- to four-carat oval diamond on a solitaire band.
Timeless Designs and Statement Pieces
Global superstar Taylor Swift takes sixth place with her engagement ring from NFL star Travis Kelce, valued between £250,000 and £500,000. The couple announced their engagement in August with a romantic photoshoot. Justin Daughters describes the ring as featuring a large cushion-cut diamond, likely 5 to 6 carats, set in a warm yellow or rose-gold band with a delicate halo, offering a 'subtle vintage feel.'
Influencer Paige Lorenze ranks seventh with her ring, worth £300,000 to £500,000. She became engaged to tennis player Tommy Paul in July. The ring boasts an estimated eight-carat emerald-cut diamond with exceptional colour and clarity.
Allison Hsu, fiancée of actor Simu Liu, comes eighth. The Barbie star proposed during a Mother's Day trip to Paris at the Shangri-La hotel. The ring, valued at £350,000 to £500,000, features a six-carat diamond on a simple yellow gold band.
Kelly Osbourne is in ninth place with her unique, beehive-inspired Mouawad ring, worth £250,000 to £500,000. Her partner, Sid Wilson, proposed backstage at her father Ozzy Osbourne's final Black Sabbath show in July in a surprise that involved the whole family.
Rounding out the top ten is Hannah Wright from Love Island USA, who got engaged to co-star Marco Donatelli in May. Her ring, which knocked Dua Lipa out of the rankings, is estimated to be worth £300,000 to £450,000. It centres on a large round brilliant-cut diamond, likely 4 to 5 carats, set in a refined three-stone arrangement.
This year's collection proves that for celebrities in 2025, an engagement ring is far more than just jewellery; it's a monumental statement of love, success, and unparalleled luxury.
