Cristiano Ronaldo’s 35-Carat Engagement Ring And Why It’s Redefining the Meaning of 'Over the Top'

Alright, we know—everyone has covered Cristiano Ronaldo’s engagement ring to Georgina Rodríguez. But here at Ritani, we’re all about the details—and when a ring is this massive, elegant, and expertly designed, we can’t help but dive in.

The Breakdown: 35 Carats of Pure Luxury

Yes, you read that right. Ronaldo’s engagement ring features a 35-carat oval-cut diamond as the center stone. And if that wasn’t enough, it’s flanked by two matching oval side stones (each estimated at 1 carat) set in a classic platinum three-stone setting. The entire piece screams timeless elegance—just on a much grander scale.

To put it in perspective, the average engagement ring in the U.S. is about 1 to 2 carats. That means Ronaldo’s ring is more than 15 times larger. It doesn’t just make a statement—it starts a conversation.

What’s It Worth?

Jewelry experts estimate the ring’s value between $2 million and $5 million, depending on the diamond’s quality (which, let’s be honest—knowing Ronaldo, it’s flawless). Some even peg the number closer to $10 million. With D-color and internally flawless clarity reportedly in the mix, this isn’t just a ring—it’s a museum-worthy piece of fine jewelry.

How It Compares: The Celebrity Ring Showdown

Ronaldo’s ring joins an elite club of jaw-dropping celebrity engagement rings:

• Elizabeth Taylor’s Krupp Diamond: 33 carats

• Beyoncé’s Cushion-Cut Diamond: 24 carats

• Lauren Sánchez’s Oval from Jeff Bezos: 20 carats

• Chioma’s 10-Carat Oval from Davido: ~$950,000

• Jake Paul’s 10-Carat Oval + Side Stones: ~$1 million

But Cristiano? He went all in 35 carats with side stones? That’s next level.

Why It Works

Even at its massive size, the ring is shockingly refined. The oval shape gives it a romantic, elongated elegance, while the three-stone design adds symbolism—past, present, future. It’s a bold choice that still manages to feel deeply personal and timeless.

Other Rings in the Spotlight

Let’s take a second to appreciate two more standout rings from 2025:

Davido & Chioma: The Miami Wedding Ring Moment

Nigerian superstar Davido gave his bride Chioma a 10-carat GIA-certified oval diamond (F color) valued at nearly $950,000, alongside a $300,000 iced-out Richard Mille. Their lavish Miami wedding went viral for all the right reasons—romance, glam, and diamonds that dazzled across social media.

This ring is the definition of elevated luxury. Crafted by Benny Da Jeweler, it proves you don’t need 35 carats to make an unforgettable impression—10 stunning, well-cut carats can do the job beautifully.

Jake Paul & Jutta Leerdam: Understated Elegance

Not one to shy away from the spotlight, Jake Paul proposed with a 10-carat diamond ring of his own. The centerpiece? A 7.24-carat oval-cut diamond flanked by half-moon side stones, set in platinum with a pavé diamond band.

The setting? A candlelit balcony surrounded by mountains and water. Classic romance. The ring? F color, VS1 clarity—a blend of sentiment and sophistication, proving that Jake’s taste is as refined as his right hook.

Final Thoughts: Size Matters—But Meaning Matters More

Ronaldo’s ring may top the carat charts, but what ties all these celebrity proposals together is intention. Whether it’s 35 carats or 7, the message behind every engagement ring is the same: a forever promise.
