How much does Ariana Grande's engagement ring cost? Comparing Dalton Gomez's rock with Pete Davidson's $100k one
Like Beyonce once said, if you like it you can put a ring on it and that's exactly what Dalton Gomez did for popstar Ariana Grande. He put a ring on it and how! Grande broke the news of her engagement to luxury home realtor Dalton Gomez on Sunday, December 20 on Instagram. She shared some cutesy photos of her and Gomez, with the caption, “Forever n then some.” In the photos, we got to see the big rock on her finger that's estimated to cost around six figures. Whew!
Back in May, she made her relationship official with the video 'Stuck With You'. Towards the end of the clip, the 26-year-old singer could be seen dancing with realtor Dalton Gomez as he plants a kiss on her lips, making their relationship official. MEAWW earlier reported all about the real estate bigwig worth $20 million and now here's a scoop on the new bling she's sporting on her finger.
According to several online reports, the diamond and pearl stunner is expected to cost around $350,000 (£261,000). “This sparkler would estimate around $200-300K,” Shannon Delaney-Ron, the Director of Communications at JamesAllen.com, told Page Six Style.
Delaney-Ron added Grande’s ring “appears to be an oval diamond, likely around 5-6 carats, offset next to a lustrous pearl on a thin platinum band.” Andrew Brown, the CEO of WP Diamonds, also believes Grande’s ring is a six-figure number. “This beautiful engagement ring looks to be an elongated 5-carat oval diamond, set at an angle and accented with a pearl,” Brown said. “Assuming a high color and clarity combination, a custom ring such as this would retail around $150,000-$200,000.”
An expert speaking to Hollywood Life said that the ring is “practically flawless” and is 'worth three times the value' of the ring that Ariana had with comedian Pete Davidson, during their short-lived engagement. Michelle Demaree, the CEO of Miss Diamond Ring, mentioned there was significance to the pearl being with the diamond. She said: “Ariana Grande ’s engagement ring is a striking five-carat colorless oval with a stunning elongated 1:45 ratio and top VS clarity, practically flawless like her.”
In 2018, Grande was engaged to Davidson, within a few weeks of their dating. He proposed to her with a pear-shaped ring, and the two would constantly share mushy posts about each other. Their romance reached new heights after they bought a $16 million apartment. “I feel like I won a contest,” Davidson had told 'Tonight Show' host Jimmy Fallon. “You ever see that Derek Jeter commercial, and he’s retiring and everyone just tips their hat? Some dude came up to me and he was like, ‘Yo man, you gave me hope.’” Unfortunately, the two split up after five months.
Michelle added, “Her unique diamond and pearl set has a rare offset South Sea pearl which must have some significance. This is easily a multiple six-figure rock worth $250,000 to $350,000. It embodies their authentic love for one another and at the end of the day that’s all that matters.”
According to Mirror, the ring is expected to a tribute to a ring that Grande's grandmother had made for her in 2014, which used a pearl from her grandfather’s tie pin. So, that would make it even more priceless for Grande.
TMZ confirmed Gomez and Grande's relationship back in March when the two were spotted kissing. According to People, Grande and Gomez began dating at the start of 2020 but decided to keep their relationship status discreet for as long as possible. In March, a source told People, “They have been hanging out for a couple of months ... Ariana doesn’t want to do another public relationship so she is trying to keep this one quiet, but she seems very happy with Dalton.”
