Diamonds & Engagement Rings News

The famous supermodel, Agyness Deyn is said to be engaged to her boyfriend, Albert Hammond, Jr.

The couple has been reported to be madly in love when they have only been dating for about two months.

A source confirmed the supermodel’s recent state saying, “They just got engaged. It happened within the past few days.”

On June 20th, the couple’s relationship status was made public when Deyn, who is 25, and Strokes guitarist Hammond appeared at the Songwriters Hall of Fame awards gala in New York City holding hands.

The source continued by adding in, They’re really sweet. They basically haven’t been apart for more than three seconds in the past two months.”

This engagement is thought to be one of the fastest celebrity engagements by far.

Although the relationship has been on and off for a while, Kelly Brook now seems to be making it pretty clear as she walks out in London last night with her on/off boyfriend, Billy Zane’s engagement ring.

Since her boyfriend had gotten back with her, Kelly Brook, 28, has been hesitant to wear her engagement ring, up until now.

As the model was leaving after dinner at The Ivy, she was full of bright smiles as she flashed her sparkling engagement ring worn on her left finger.

                   

Brook was gleaming with happiness and felt very content and certain.

It is obvious that Brook was trying to send some sort of message as she walked out that night, knowing she will be the center of attention.

The scene of that night is surely going to spread some rumors of an official engagement to Billy Zane, who is 42.

After a long time apart from each other, since earlier this year, the couple rekindles their romance.

But, as Kelly works in Virginia on an upcoming US TV project, the couple has not been seeing each other as often.

It has been reported that while they were having this time of separation last month, Zane was caught trying to flirt with girls in an LA nightclub.

Kelly then decided to break up her engagement because she felt that at her age she was still too young to get married.

Trying to stay apart from each other only lasted a few weeks, as it appears the couple could not live without each other while they were photographed holding hands at a cafe in London.

In May, Kelly took a flight back to Cannes so that she could be with her man as he upheld his new movie, The Man Who Came Back. It was then that the couple announced they were officially back together again.

                                                                                             

Uma Thurman and her new fiance look as if they don’t want to waste much time, rushing into a huge engagement party preceding their announced engagement just last week.

The couple managed to attract a whole group of celebrity A-listers to the bash.

It was only to be expected of Busson, the multimillionaire financier, to throw a huge engagement party after giving Uma Thurman an enormous ring said to be an eight-carat center stone surrounded by twenty smaller diamonds.

          

Some of the guests at the party included Sting and his wife Trudie Styler, sir Elton John and his partner David Furnish, and supermodel Claudia Schiffer, followed by Liz Hurley, Damien Hirst, Bob Geldof, Jemima Khan and Charlotte Princess of Monaco.

 The grand party took place in a marquee in the garden of Arpad Busson’s house in Kensington, west London.

Busson is an old hand at planning such facinating parties. His children’s charity, Absolute Return for Kids (ARK), hosted a fund raising gala dinner that raised more then US $50 million last month.

The French financier is now expected to throw an even bigger wedding in order to top the engagement ring given to Uma prior to the engagement party.

According to news reports, Uma Thurman, the charismatic actress and Arpad “Arki” Busson, London financier are engaged. If the actress goes through with the plan and marries Busson, this will be Thurman’s third wedding.

Thurman has been previously married to Ethan Hawke, and had two children with him. The marriage ended in a divorce in 2003. Uma was also married to the actor, Gary Oldman. Busson had been married as well with the supermodel Elle Macpherson and had two sons with her. Their relationship had ended in 2005.

Stephen Huvane, Uma Thurman’s representative confirmed the rumors of her engagement saying, “I can confirm she is engaged.”

                  

The couple began dating last summer and had a growing relationship  in a short period of time. Businessman Busson is the founder and chairman of EIM Group, which is a fund management business based in London.

Busson proposed to Thurman with a diamond ring so big, “she can’t fit it through the sleeve of her coat,” New York Daily News quoted a friend of Thurman’s.

Earlier in the month, Jack Jordan, 34, had been put on probation in the U.S. for stalking Uma Thurman and harassing her children for the past two years.

 Thirty eight year old, Uma Thurman acted in several different movies ranging from romantic comedies and dramas to action thrillers and science fiction. Thurman is known best for her acting in “Pulp Fiction,” “Kill Bill” and “The Producers.”¼/p>

Who ever said that Cameron Diaz is engaged has got it all wrong!

Although Cameron was seen wearing a huge looking engagement ring on her ring finger, it has been confirmed by Cameron’s publicist that the actress is not engaged to Paul sculfor, saying, “It is not an engagement ring. It is her own ring, designed by her friend Lenore Marusak for La Paiz.”

Cameron’s friend, Marusak, is a producer who worked with the once in love couple, Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson, on their MTV show, Newlyweds.

As Diaz and Sculfor left a dinner on Wednesday night, paparazzi went mad thinking the ring on Cameron’s finger meant an engagement. E! Online had the nerve to say that the dinner was not even a date, making the thought of engagement even more believable.   

                            

For the past year, Diaz has been with both, Justin Timberlake and Jared Leto. However, she has not settled with anyone just yet.

 Diaz was not trying to hide her ring. In fact, it appears as if she was trying to show it off.

Rob Patterson has finally proposed to Carmen Electra after being on friendly terms with her for the past eight years. The startling part of this proposal is the engagement ring, which is a black diamond set into white diamonds. Carmen says she likes the ring because of its gothic look.

                         

While visiting the Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Carmen started discussing marriage and kids. The actress was dressed in a blue sparkling cocktail dress designed by Jenny Peckham, who was dealt the first hand of blackjack ever played at the casino.

                                                         

During the casino’s new card game, Rocker Patterson smashed his guitar while confetti exploded and at once, proposed to Electra on her 36th birthday, on April 20th at Pure Nightclub in LA.

Patterson, who is 37 and a former touring guitarist with the alternative rock band Korn tells PEOPLE, “she is beautiful and “she’s a really great girl.”

Electra has been previously married to rocker Dave Novarro and NBA star Dennis Rodman. These relationships have definitely let her know how difficult it is to make a relationship work. Electra tells PEOPLE, “You have to stay connected and make an effort… We are taking it slow and have no wedding date yet.” she continues saying, “We connect on a lot of different levels.”

As for having children Electra tells the media, “Someday we will… Deep down i feel like I’m ready. But it’s a big commitment. I don’t know.”

Meanwhile Electra and Patterson are testing the waters with three small dogs. Electra speaks for the both of them saying, “We are very happy!”¼/p>

It seems as if engagement rings have become the new fashion for the celebrity world. It has turned into a Hollywood trend now for young celebrities, such as Eva Longoria Parker, Stacy “Fergie” Ferguson, Jessica Alba, Ellen Pompeo and Katherine Heigl, to find love. They have also very much fallen in love with their engagement ring.

The style and type of engagement ring a woman chooses significantly defines her. Jewelry experts describe an engagement ring as individual as the person who wears it. There are three most popular engagement rings worn by celebrities and each has their own definition as to what the style means.

Fancy-shaped diamonds are emerald, marquis, oval, pear and cushion shaped diamonds. Although round diamonds are undeniably the most acknowledged shape for engagement rings, fancy shaped diamonds have become an exception to some celebrities defining them as fashion forward people with distinctive style. Ellen Pompeo (emerald), Victoria Bekham ((marquis), Katherine Heigl (pear) and Eva Longoria Parker (emerald), are a number of celebrities with remarkably shaped engagement rings.

A vintage styled engagement ring is another uniquely designed ring, which is romantically and lavishly crafted. This particular design is definitely exclusive but not too hard to find. Cool metals such as palladium, platinum and white gold structure beautiful vintage styles. Vintage inspired rings describe a person as passionate, optimistic and hopelessly romantic. Such celebrities include Kate Walsh, Jennifer Love Hewitt and Christina Aguilera.

Brilliant colored diamonds make engagement rings appear more vibrant and vivid, identifying with the person’s happy and colorful time of getting engaged. Now diamonds come in almost every possible color, but are much more rare making them also much more expensive. However, small stones could also be designed to appear much larger and be catchier to the eye. Women with brilliant colored engagement rings want to attract attention are lively, energetic and pine for luxury. Heidi Klum, Brooke Mueller, and Rebecca Romijn definitely fall under this category, all having yellow engagement rings.

Engagement rings and wedding bands stand out as reminders of lasting love and devotion of a husband and wife. Some even get passed down through generations making the memory stronger and continuous.

Rumor has it that Justin Timberlake has been shopping for an engagement ring in sequence to asking Jessica Biel to marry him.

The very famous singer has been asking Jessica’s close friends to help him choose the perfect diamond band, making it obvious enough to know that he is planning to propose to Jessica.

One of Jessica’s good friends told the Chicago Sun Times Newspaper: “Justin has been ring shopping, and we’re talking serious, major Harry Winston-type shopping here.”

Justin has been surveying Jessica’s friends, trying to get some sort of idea as to what type of ring Jessica admires most. The only comment Jessica has ever made was when one of her friends was proposed to with a square-cut emerald engagement ring.

“It was huge!”

Friends of Justin state that he had decided to take the relationship to the next level, due to both of their very busy work schedules, which kept them apart so often.

As of last month, is was stated Justin was ready to marry Jessica on the privately owned island of Mustique, located in the West Indies.

“Justin is 27 and thinking about marriage and kids. For the first time in his life he is feeling settled and has definitely decided to pop the question to Jessica,” a source noted.

Lindsay Lohan is actively caught smooching her deejay gal pal Samantha Ronson although, this time it seems to be a bit more than just a smooch… maybe a wedding coming along! Rumor has it that the couple is engaged, whether it’s a joke or not. Having Ronson as Lohan’s sidekick for over a year, maybe Lindsay Lohan doesn’t mind being married to an openly gay person after all.

Leslie Sloane, Lindsay’a publicist disagreed with the reports and said that the women are not engaged and wont be following in the footsteps of Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi. Sloane was very much disappointed with the rumors and wrote in an email, “This is gross. She is not a bad girl. Leave her alone.”

Lohan’s father who is extremely set against her confirmed in an interview Tuesday fro Us Weekly that his daughter and Ronson are “more than friends” and continued by stating that the relationship is “evident to anyone with half a brain.” He later denies ever mentioning such  remarks.

Lohan’s image was said to be based as something “cute and sweet”and if she contributes to a bad girl image then it doesn’t seem like its going to be good for her career. Columnist, Hazlett from MSNBC.com Scoop says, “The farther she steps away from that, the less well she’s been received in the public and in the industry…”

Rumors of their engagement only spread to the U.S. and European tabloids once Lindsay was caught and photographed in a “steamy lip lock” action with Ronson at an A-list party.

        

Lindsay and Ronson’s relationship is enhanced when photos are taken by the British tabloids of Lindsay sporting a ring on her wedding finger and telling Cannes paparazzi she was engaged to Ronson.

If the wedding actually does come along, at least Lindsay will have some supporters, such as the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation. The director of the organization proudly “applauds anyone in the public eye who chooses to live their lives openly and with authenticity.”    Â

Drew Barrymore and Justin Long were overheard To have been talking about wedding plans, while eating at their most favorite restaurant, Hugo’s.

Jose Sandoval, a diner at Hugo’s says, “The tables are close together, so it’s kind of hard not to overhear things.” He continues by saying, “She said she wanted to find a wedding planner and he said they should look at engagement rings that day.”

 According to the witness that was eavesdropping on the couple Drew told Justin, ‘You know what I like, surprise me.’

      Reporters claim that Drew and Justin seem to be in high spirits and are always together. They have been dating since August 2007 after meeting with the notion of, He’s-Just-Not-That-Into-You.

Although Justin has never been married before, this wedding will be Drew’s third.

In March, Drew told Oprah how great and happy she is with the relationship. She also mentioned how healthy it feels and full of humor. On May 10th, when the couple was leaving Hugo’s after discussing wedding plans, an insider said, “they didn’t stop smiling.”¼/p>
