Austin Aaron, the Netflix 13 Reasons Why actor, and Kristen McNamara started dating four years ago at Cal Berkeley when she was a cheerleader and he was a football player. Fast forward to last weekend at a Napa Valley castle and winery, Austin surprised the love of his life (during a pandemic) with a mind-blowing marriage proposal she’ll never forget. As shared in People magazine, Austin did his “best Bachelor” impression by dropping to one knee and asking Kristen to spend forever with him. Well of course she said YES!

Knowing Kristen’s love for round diamonds, Austin popped the question with an Eternalle lab-grown diamond engagement ring. “Huge thank you to Robbins Brothers in Woodland Hills for helping me find the perfect ring as I thought a carat was just a highly underrated vegetable before this process.” We love that these two are so in love! “Kristen is my soulmate, most amazing cat mom and forever my best friend.” #AllTheFeels

Sending a warm congratulations to contestants Jeff Schroeder & Jordan Lloyd! The cute couple was recently engaged on CBS’ Big Brother 16. When Jeff visited the Woodland Hills store, it was such a pleasure helping him find the ring that Jordan would adore. He was so excited and even a little nervous picking it out, but our wonderful engagement ring consultants, Amy Butler and Moraima Alamillo, helped put him right at ease. It was a ring-shopping “party” as the ladies assisted Jeff with his decision on a gorgeous cushion-cut halo diamond engagement ring from the Robbins Brothers Vintage Collection.

Congratulations, Gretchen Rossi! She’s newly engaged to her boyfriend of four years, Slade Smiley. Gretchen picked out a gorgeous black-gold band shimmering with black diamonds and proposed to her sweetheart on top of the AT&T building in Los Angeles. The Real Housewives of Orange County star says, “I don’t do anything by the book.”

A few days after their engagement, Smiley went and chose a whopping 4-carat yellow diamond engagement ring surrounded with a diamond halo and planned a surprise for Gretchen herself.

She liked it, so she put a ring on it! Congratulations to the happy couple!

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West: Sometime in 2012, the stars aligned, the Mayan Calendars predicted some huge event was going to take place, the whole world waited with bated breath. Kim and Kanye are pregnant. With child. Soon to be parents. A tiny human being will be depending solely on Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. They’ve just purchased a quaint and cozy 9,000-square-foot home in Bel-Air. Will they get engaged soon? Hm.. well, Kim has to finalize the divorce with Kris Humphries first. Maybe they’re waiting for just that.

Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling: It breaks my heart to include Ryan Gosling on this list… but it looks like he’s getting pretty comfortable and just might settle down with Eva. They’ve been dating for over a year, now. Eva may lock down THE Ryan Gosling with an engagement this year… sigh. It’s okay, I’ll forgive you, Ryan.

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher: We know that they’ve only been dating for a short while, but their relationship dates back to That 70’s Show! Their friendship turned into romance shortly after the big blowout between Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher.

Stacy Keibler and George Clooney: Stacy Keibler is one lucky woman to be with George Clooney for about a year and a half. If she lands this engagement, she will be an incredibly lucky wizard, because only magic is going to make Clooney commit to marriage. Good luck, girl!

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart: They had a bit of a rough patch during the summer of 2012 due to Kristen’s infidelity, but it seems like they’re back together and looking forward to happier times. Could an engagement ring be in the near future? Do you think this couple will survive post-Twilight buzz?

Awww congrats to American Idol alum and singing sensation Kelly Clarkson and her new fiance Brandon Blackstock. I remember when Kelly was single and patient, yet living life to the fullest while waiting for Mr. Right. And lo and behold, she met Blackstock a year ago whom she refers to as “the greatest man ever.” He popped the question with a gorgeous…and I do mean GORGEOUS…yellow canary diamond engagement ring right before the Christmas holiday. Bravo!!!

Congrats to Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger, frontman of Nickelback! The “Girlfriend” singer met and started developing romantic feelings for Chad Kroeger when the two started working closely, collaborating on new tunes. Since then, the couple has kept their relationship a secret. This engagement news has hit their fans as a complete shock!

The other big shock? Check out that H-U-G-E engagement ring!

The engagement ring has a pear shaped center stone (so chic!!!) and is flanked by two half moon diamonds. The ring is reported to weigh around 14-carats total! Rumor has it that it runs about $350,000. That’s quite a chunk of change.

Avril Lavigne’s romantic life has come a long way! She was married to Sum41 singer, Deryck Whibley from 2006-2010. After that, she was romantically linked to Brody Jenner (yes, the step-brother of Kim Kardashian), of “The Hills” (ugh, one of my guilty pleasures!)  from 2010-2012 until their sudden break up. How does Avril know that Chad is “the one”? “He makes me laugh every day. He takes care of me in every way and is extremely attentive,” she gushes. Chad sure knows how to take care of a lady. He absolutely adores her, saying, “”I knew I was falling for her. It was incredibly powerful and something I’ll never forget.”

Congratulations to Avril! This rocking Canadian couple deserve all the happiness! What do you think about that dazzling pear shaped ring? Outdated? Fabulous? Want one of your own?? Let us know down there!

If 43-year-old movie star Jennifer Aniston can get engaged, so can all of us single ladies!!! She gives us hope to hold out for the best. We sure were rooting for her, weren’t we ladies? Jenn once said, “As I get older, I realize what qualities are important in love and what suits me. And what I won’t settle for.” I was so excited to read over the weekend that she and boyfriend of one year, Justin Theroux, decided to do exactly what our TV campaign encourages…GET ENGAGED. Way to go you two! Theroux reportedly proposed to Aniston on his 41st birthday and she happily said YES.

Ahhhh I’m still on the hunt for photos of her engagement ring but in the meantime I’ll just do what I do best….make a prediction.:) Jenn strikes me as a Vintage girl all the way so I’m pretty sure her ring favors one of the following styles. What do you think?

For Jenn and Justin, the romance started with a friendly kiss and blossomed into a relationship destined for a lifetime of happiness.

Since the first time their paths crossed, Jenn and Justin were never the same. Perhaps this halo style will remind her every day that she is surrounded by his love?

Jenn and Justin’s love just went platinum! Maybe a princess cut is the way to go??

NBA New York Knicks star Amare Stoudemire knows that when it comes to the marriage proposal, planning makes perfect. This weekend Stoudemire popped the question to longtime girlfriend Alexis Welch, mother of his three children, during a romantic trip to Paris, France. Wow! Now that’s what I call ‘romance at its best’! He surprised her with the most gorgeous 8.5-carat diamond ring estimated to be worth $1 million. “I have been planning my proposal for a while and overlooking the entire Paris skyline seemed like a perfect place,” Stoudemire told People magazine. He’s thrilled she said ‘yes’ and excited to move forward as husband and wife.

Love and engagements are just beautiful. Congrats to the happy couple! I wonder if they celebrated the special occasion at the Jay Z and Kanye West concert also held in Paris this weekend. Hmmm, maybe. Paris was poppin’!

Amare confirms the event on Twitter, telling his followers:

“Paris, the food and lights were very romantic. When she said yes, it was surreal. I’m still floating. ‪#engaged‬ ‪#blessed.”

My dear friend Melanie is devastated over the biggest relationship status change she heard about this past weekend. Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg and long-time girlfriend Priscilla Chan married at their home in Palo Alto, CA with nearly 100 guests in attendance. (Yeah my friend has a huge crush on Mark…I know, I know…not sure what the fascination is but the man is a GENIUS. Gotta give him that.)

Interestingly, guests thought they were gathering for Chan’s recent medical school graduation but were surprised with a wedding ceremony. The couple met as undergrads at Harvard University in 2004. Zuckerberg who’s now 28 dropped out of college to work on Facebook, while Chan, a pediatrician stayed to earn her undergrad degree. Many didn’t even know the pair were engaged but we hear he proposed with a simple yet stunning ruby ring.

Other celebs who’ve opted for a ruby instead include Jessica Simpson.

If you’re a fan of colored gemstones too you might like these pretty ruby stud earrings and pendant set. A personal favorite and definitely an elegant way to make any outfit pop.
