Record producer Benny Blanco proposed to singer-actress Selena Gomez with an extremely costly ring after the two became engaged.
On social media, the couple posted joyful photos of themselves showing off her ring and a large rock. The fans were thrilled to hear the news, but they were also curious about the ring’s diamond price.
With a four-carat marquise-shaped diamond, the music producer proposed to Gomez. The ring currently on Gomez’s finger cost approximately $200,000, according to a knowledgeable jewelry retailer in the United Kingdom.
The knowledgeable retailer Maxwell Stone issued a statement after Blanco and Gomez became engaged, saying,
“With meticulously crafted facets that come together to create an exceptional brilliance, the center stone is complimented by diamond-encrusted shoulders. While marquise-cut diamonds are less common than the more traditional round or cushion cuts, they are highly coveted by those with a taste for individuality and distinction.”
According to Vogue reports, the priceless piece of jewelry also has historical connections to the French Royal family. King Louis XV of France reportedly asked his jeweler to create a ring that was modeled after the smile of the chief mistress, Marquise de Pompadour.

In addition, Blanco’s choice of ring for Gomez’s finger complemented the lyrics of her song, which played in the background of the engagement photo.
In her song, the performer stated,
“I’m a marquise diamond/Could even make that Tiffany jealous/ You say I give it to you hard/So bad, so bad / Make you never wanna leave/I won’t, I won’t.”
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have been dating since 2023.
