FEMAIL Ranks The A-list's Most Extravagant Engagement Rings In The World.

It looks like the only reason why engagements are celebrated in the media these days is when engagement rings have double figure carats and worth six digit figures.

You dont need a prophet to tell you what girls will begin to tell you in a couple of years if you allow this trend to continue..lol
