Emily Ratajkowski Showed Off “Divorce Rings” On Instagram

31/07/2024 Syifa

Emily Ratajkowski knows how to turn diamonds into… even more diamonds. The model has taken one of the most sentimental yet bittersweet pieces of jewelry from her closet and transformed it into a statement of strength and independence.

On March 19, EmRata debuted her new “divorce rings” on Instagram. It turns out she used her engagement ring from ex-husband Sebastian Bear-McClard, whom she divorced in 2022, to make two new rings that signify her newfound freedom.

The New Bling

EmRata posted a slideshow of photos showing off her new bling, tagging jewelry designer Alison Lou, who helped with the transformation. The pear-shaped and princess-cut diamonds now sit on their own gold bands.

In a new interview, Ratajkowski told Vogue the rings “represent my own personal evolution” following her breakup. “I don’t think a woman should be stripped of her diamonds just because she’s losing a man,” she quipped.

She said the idea came to her after reading her friend Stephanie Danler’s essay “The Unravelers,” which mentions her grandmother’s “snake ring” that includes every stone from the rings of her previous marriages. “I loved the idea of a ring unabashedly representing the many lives a woman has lived,” EmRata said.

Emily Ratajkowski reveals her ‘divorce rings’ were inspired by Rihanna’s toe bling!

25/07/2024 Syifa

Emily Ratajkowski has confirmed she used her engagement band to make her two new “divorce rings” – and says they were inspired by one of Rihanna’s toe rings.

The 31-year-old model, who was given a two-stone engagement ring said to be worth up to $90,000 by her ex-husband Sebastian Bear-McClard, 36, in 2018, got her fans excited when she showed off her new bling on Instagram on Tuesday (19.03.24) to mark their split, but it was unclear at the time exactly how she had designed the pair of sparklers.

She has now told Vogue: “The rings represent my own personal evolution.

“I don’t think a woman should be stripped of her diamonds just because she’s losing a man.”

Vogue reported the idea to repurpose the rings struck Emily while she was reading her friend Stephanie Danler’s essay ‘The Unravelers’ in The Paris Review.

Emily added: “(It) includes the story of her grandmother’s snake ring—a ring that is made of the different stones from her various marriages.

Why Prince William Doesn’t Wear a Wedding Ring

14/07/2024 Syifa

Prince William‘s decision not to wear a wedding ring seems to have nothing to do with Princess Kate‘s disappearance from the public eye.

As William, 41, continues to step out for royal engagements while Kate, 42, maintains a low-profile following a planned abdominal surgery, spectators have noticed that William has no band on that fingers.

While the observation has only fueled rumors about the couple’s marriage and speculation about Kate stepping away from the spotlight, it seems William has never worn a wedding ring in the first place. (Kensington Palace said in January that Kate was recovering from the procedure and would resume royal engagements after Easter.)

Before William and Kate’s wedding in April 2011, the palace confirmed that William would not be wearing a ring on the big day. “There will only be one ring, which is in accordance with the wishes of Prince William and Catherine,” a royal spokesperson told Us Weekly at the time.“It’s quite common for there to just be the one ring in society or royal weddings. It’s been the same in other royal weddings, so it’s not a rare occurrence.”

Emily Ratajkowski sports a ‘divorce ring’ as women ‘shouldn’t be stripped of their diamonds’

07/07/2024 Syifa

Model and author Emily Ratajkowski has put a new spin on engagement rings by splitting her diamond in two and hailing it The Divorce Ring.

EmRata split from film producer Sebastian Bear-McClard – with whom she shares a three-year-old son – in September 2022 after four years of marriage. She is now celebrating her “personal evolution” through bling.

“I don’t think a woman should be stripped of her diamonds just because she’s losing a man,” she told Vogue.

In a recent string of snaps shared to Instagram, the My Body author shows off the stunning new addition designed by Alison Lou, a luxury jeweler who initially designed her original engagement ring.

“This is just … ICONIC,” one person responded, while another wrote: “If ever a post deserved a ‘love this’ its this one.”

A third added: “Big Boy Moves my friend.”

The inspiration came from Stephanie Danler’s essay The Unravelers.

“[It] includes the story of her grandmother’s snake ring—a ring that is made up of the different stones from her various marriages,” Ratajkowski told the publication. “I loved the idea of a ring unabashedly representing the many lives a woman has lived.”

Why Carl Radke Asked For Engagement Ring back From Lindsay Hubbard

06/03/202423/03/2024 Syifa

Carl Radke has defended his decision to ask for Lindsay Hubbard’s wedding ring after he broke off their engagement. About a week ago, Lindsay appeared on Watch What Happens Live to share that Carl “demanded” the ring back.

At the time, Lindsay discussed “New York law” vs. “etiquette.” She shared, “Legally, the ring belongs to him. Now, I did take it off pretty much immediately [and] gave it to my jeweler for safekeeping. And she gave it back to him when he emailed me and demanded it back.”

Perceptions of Carl and Lindsay’s breakup have changed quite a bit since the news first broke. Many Summer House viewers now see Carl as the victim in the relationship. So, defending the reclamation of the ring should’ve been easy, no?

Carl was criticized on WWHL for taking the ring back

During his recent appearance on Watch What Happens Live, Carl said of the ring, “It’s my property, and I wrote him an email one-on-one and asked for the ring back.” Trishelle Cannatella interrupted him to say how disagreeable she found “that rule.” Still, Carl doubled down, saying, “It is the law in New York state.”

He continued, “If I purchase the ring,

Dublin Couple Desperate To Find Missing Engagement Ring

24/02/202423/03/2024 Syifa

Mark Fearon and Orla Murray from Firhouse in Dublin had been on a high celebrating their recent engagement, when a series of unfortunate events left them devastated as the rest of the country was celebrating the Six Nations win and St Patrick’s Day.

After a number of opportunities to pop the question passed unsuccessfully, Mark finally got down on one knee and asked Orla to marry him while on holiday in Estepona in Spain at the end of February.

Speaking to EVOKE, Mark said he wanted it to be a perfect moment. ‘I was trying to find the kind of perfect time, the perfect place to actually propose. We’d actually gone off to the Aran Islands during the summer, and then [the ring] even went to a wedding in Italy. It just never ended up happening. So, I managed to keep the ring nice and safe, all the way up until then.’

But when the couple, who had two kids – Fiadh, five, and three-year-old Declan Óg – were on a family holiday in Spain at the end of February, Mark felt the time was finally perfect and he popped the question on the beach as their children
