Elizabeth’s Krupp diamond was NOT her engagement ring with Richard Burton. He didn’t give her an engagement ring, he gave her an emerald and diamond brooch she wore on their wedding day. The Krupp diamond was given as a present for a birthday. But it was her absolute favorite even after receiving the 69ct pear Taylor-Burton diamond.
Throughout your video the diamonds have gotten bigger and bigger. It doesn’t necessarily mean better or classier. I love art deco rings, but I wouldn’t say no to some of these. Please do another video of engagement rings. For us girls it’s really interesting and it’s nice to imagine and dream.
Wouldn't have wanted Diana's ring as it wasn't given with any love from Charles. The Krupp diamond ring wasn't her engagement ring, just a gift Burton gave Elizabeth
@@BlackStump172 well, the Queen wanted William to wear the Red uniform for his wedding and he did. There are also private wedding photos of him wearing the black uniform which was probably what he and/or Catherine preferred- so there are ways to get what you want and giving your grandmother or even the public what they want too
I'm disgusted that republicans hate Markle. What about Melania Trump?? I mean, she's shallow and vain, and COLD as ICE, as they come. People hate the wrong people. It's disgusting.
Anyone could see from the engagement interview that Meghan hated her engagement ring, bending over it as if she could barely see the diamonds because they were so small. Those words she spoke back then were so disingenuous and nothing much has changed to this day!
My favorite is a toss between Grace Kelly’s, and Jackie Kennedy’s. Once Grace Kelly’s ring became famous many women desired an emerald cut diamond ring at the time. My father proposed to my mom in 1963 with an emerald cut Diamond ring, a little over a carat, and the wedding band had baguettes to match. The ring was set in platinum. One day while my brother, and I were entertaining our older cousins at the zoo (they were oh so thrilled), and both of my parents were at work, our house was burglarized. I’m talking windows broken, drawers tossed, everything a complete mess. The ring was gone. The ring started to get tight on my Mom’s finger, she started developing arthritis. It was never found. I had some pieces of my grandmother’s that were taken that day. The feeling is very violating. We didn’t know that there was a burglar ring hitting our area (unincorporated). We also think that my Mom walked in on them, and they dashed out our back door. So things could’ve been worse. I was engaged once. I had hoped to upgrade my ring to resemble my Mom’s as I thought it was the most beautiful ring on the planet. Maybe one day 🤞. Today’s ring styles don’t really do much for me. I like classic 50’s & 60’s rings, something that has a substantial band. Putting a 3 carat diamond on a pave band 1/8” thick just makes no sense… Thanks for the walk down memory lane ✨💍✨
The huge rings weren't attractive as rings, just as conversation pieces for attention-cravers. Kennedy's ring was busy and seemed thrown together with no focal point; it looked more like a cocktail ring, just meant to attract attention without meaning anything profound. Of course, that makes sense since both Kennedys cheated on each other, so perhaps it was an appropriate choice after all. Queen Elizabeth's ring was decidely one of the better designs, especially since it actually affirmed the family connection between past, present and future with its classic design as well as the incorporation of jewels from his family.
@@Deborah-so8mv yes, but usually a “moi et toi” ring has just the 2 stones. But Jackie’s ring has just too much going on- all the surrounding diamonds just look garish.
Oh Yes..... Meghan Markle loved her ring so much that within months she had changed over the band not once but twice. Then later on demanded that a larger diamond be set as 3 carats was not sufficient for her new station in life. That ring does not deserve to be shown on a video like this. It looks cheap and glitzy- not the classy, classic ring that Harry took the time to design and have made for her.
Wanna hear a funny, but touching story? My wedding ring was fabulous, but it was me 20th wedding anniversary gift that was beyond awesome and funny. My husband took me to a jeweler, I thought we were just dream shopping as we sometimes did. I adored amethyst and often told him I'd like to have an amethyst ring. Wet were looking and he pointed out a pretty ring with an oval amethyst surrounded by a halo of diamonds. He asked what I thought of it. I says it was beautiful, but the amethyst was just a bit large. We moved on to other things and went home. A month later was our wedding anniversary. He put a large box in front of me and I opened it. There was another smaller box, I opened it... You know where this is going 🤭 I got to the sixth and last box, wrapped very pretty and I opened it. I was stunned! It was that ring, but something about it was different! I put it on and it fit perfect. I hugged him, he drew back and took my hand to see it on me. He then looked at me and said, "I know you said the amethyst was a little too big, so what I did was have the jeweler take the diamonds out and replace them with bigger ones, that way the amethyst would look smaller, what do you think?" I started laughing and just loved him more for his solution to the "stone is a little too big" dilemma. About a year later, we were talking about the ring, he said it was the prettiest thing he's gotten me and he liked seeing it on me. I then asked him, "why did you have the jeweler replace the diamonds with bigger ones? You could've just had a smaller amethyst reset in it. Wasn't the way you did it so much more expensive?" He stared at me for a minute, the he jumped up, grabbed my hand and pulled my ring off, then ran to the door. I hollered laughing "what are you doing?!" He turned around and said "I didn't think of that! I'm going back to have him change it and get the difference in the money back!" I chased him out the door and retrieved my ring! He unexpectedly passed away two years later. I miss him terribly still, 20 later, but even missing him as much as I do, the memories of our 24 years together bring more smiles than tears. He was one of a kind. 🥰😁
I love Diana's and Kate's ring best. Jackie Kennedy's ring is my 2nd choice, Blake Lively's ring comes in 3rd. Rings that are huge, just aren't pretty at all. You know it's the showoff of some men to give their wives these big rings... which just aren't attractive at ALL!!.
Yes I’d be very interested in watching another video on engagement rings. Gosh these women are so lucky - those rings are stunning, especially Kim’s. Sad it was stolen in Paris though.
@@carlkoh Meghan decided to get a slimmer band to make the diamonds appear larger. She was quite disappointed at the original, even though it contained 2 diamonds from Princess Diana's collection. She will auction them when her marriage ends.
So sad, that many of the couples ended for whatever reasons.., 😢 Princess Diana being the saddest & Grace Kelly widowed of her love Prince Rainier, very sad also 💔 Prince Phillip & Queen Elizabeth, Blake Lively & Ryan Reynolds 🥰 Prince & Princess of Wales, ❤ all represent ideal, wholesome family relationships. 🤗 President J.F.K. & Jackie - Classic! Kanye & Kim - totally about Fame! Jay Z & Beyonce - Not much diff.., Most of the others, hard to say 🙄
Do these rings really matter, when most Of these marriages where a sham and Ended with infidelity, betrayal and divorce. I would rather have a ring that Came from a Cracker Jack box , a good Solid man with principles and a good Marriage forever, at end of the day money does not bring happiness.
Diana’s ring was good looking but for Pete’s sake, a prince and as wealthy as he was spent only $35,000???? Back in the 70’s I had a beautiful 2ct+ emerald cut diamond that had an appraisal of $22,000. With all the jewelry in the royal vaults including rings, he could have made an iconic ring for Diana. The ONLY reason it is worth so much today is because it once belonged to Diana.
I’m with you on that one. Give me a semi precious coloured gem any day. Diamonds are not forever. I’ve been happy with a beautiful emerald cut 8 x 6 Australian teal sapphire, surrounded by diamond chips playing second fiddle to the main event. I’ve had it for 53 years, worn everyday. Even though my husband passed 5yrs ago. It is not the size, nor the value, but the sentiment in which it is given, proudly worn.
@ISouza-qs9yy Interestingly enough, we watched a tarot card reading (for entertainment) on Diana's engagement ring. The reading was to see if Diana's ring had any bad vibes to it and it indeed has something negative going on with that ring!!😳 It was also mentioned that hopefully Princess Catherine is wearing A REPLICA, and the authentic ring is LOCKED away in the vault!!😲

She picked it out of a catalogue.

I am so sorry your mother's ring is gone that is just sad. I am sure it means soooo much more than the $$$ of the ring.
You say Kim Kardashian is an actress... what has she acted in? I've never heard of her acting.
American Horror Story
I wouldn’t consider her an actress but she’s horrible at it.
Wasn't she in a home made porn movie with a boyfriend.?
Her porn movie that put her name on the map.
Kim n Kanye is garishly big, just as they are. garish. Diana and Kate…tasteful, understated and very classy.

Jaqueline Kennedy was hardly photographed wearing the ring. Agree it’s more a cocktail ring. In contrast, QE2 was always wearing her ring.
And it was chosen by her father-in-law. That’s horrendous!!
@@GiftSparksit was a “Moi et Toi” style ring that JFK bought. Not cocktail.
@@Deborah-so8mv yes, but usually a “moi et toi” ring has just the 2 stones. But Jackie’s ring has just too much going on- all the surrounding diamonds just look garish.
Emeralds are a softer stone and shouldn’t be worn all the time which is another problem.
Oh yes please!!❤❤
never knew elizabeth taylor's diamond was sold to korean retailor haha. we definitely love beauty. maybe part2,,,,?? looking forward to it!
All of these engagement rings are beautiful. If I had to choose just one, I’d choose Jackie Kennedy’s ring. It’s simple, but elegant.
Blake & Ryan’s 4th daughter is really going to be confused! “But dad said I was his son!”
I enjoy learning about what people I admire adore and cherish

The stone is strong and symbolizes hope for an enduring marriage. Doesn’t matter size.
