Britney Spears replaces engagement ring from Sam Asghari
Spears swapped out her original four-carat engagement ring, which Asghari had given her in September 2021, for a larger teal moissanite stone that sits on a silver band.
This comes a week after Daily Mail reported that Spears was happy to return her engagement ring. Allegedly, Asghari obtained the ring for free because of Spears' prominent celebrity status.
Asghari proposed to Spears in September 2021 with a diamond ring crafted by jeweler Roman Malayev, a gift obtained without payment, likely in anticipation that the singer's worldwide fame would generate publicity for the brand.
The ring had a modest and classic look, yet it also concealed a special hidden message that was revealed by Forever Diamonds New York.
What was the hidden message in Britney Spears' engagement ring?
The website explained that Asghari worked with founder Roman Malayev to design the special ring, stating, "This floating solitaire setting is further enhanced by pave detailing on the bridge, flush set diamond detailing on the prongs and basket, and a secret diamond beneath the bridge," adding that Asghari had engraved the word "Lioness" on the inside of the band for his wife-to-be.

"The thought and detail Sam put into this ring made the design process so special for Roman and our team," Forever Diamonds NY said on Instagram. "In honor of the Lioness herself, we are naming this gorgeous setting The Britney. Sam and Britney, we wish you a lifetime of happiness together and are honored to welcome you to the Forever Diamonds Family."

However, the significance of the ring has dimmed for Spears in the wake of their separation. "Sam can have that ring. It was free from the jeweler and she doesn't want it anymore. She has enough diamonds," said a Daily Mail source.
