Jennifer Lopez Engagement Rings: An In-Depth Look at Every Ring

How Many Engagement Rings Does JLo Have?

Jennifer Lopez has received six engagement rings, each one more extraordinary than the last. From a classic marquise solitaire in 1997 to one of the rarest coloured diamonds ever to appear on a celebrity's finger in 2022, her collection is estimated to be worth between $12 million and $22 million (approximately £9.5 million to £17.4 million). Here is a complete look at every ring JLo has ever received.

JLo's First Engagement Ring From Ojani Noa (1997)

In the mid-nineties, JLo got engaged to Cuban restaurateur Ojani Noa. He proposed with a marquise-cut white diamond solitaire, set on a plain yellow gold band. The stone is estimated at between 3.5 and 4 carats, a significant size for a first engagement ring. The marquise cut was a popular choice in the late nineties, known for its elongated shape that makes a diamond appear larger than its carat weight. The ring is valued at approximately $100,000 (around £79,000).

JLo's Second Engagement Ring From Chris Judd (2001)

JLo got engaged to choreographer and backup dancer Cris Judd in 2001. Judd proposed with an emerald-cut white diamond ring, set on a yellow gold pavé band. The centre stone is estimated at around 5 carats, and the pavé band adds additional brilliance to the shank. The emerald cut is prized for its long, open step-cut facets that emphasise the depth and clarity of the stone over raw sparkle. Expert valuations have placed the ring at between $100,000 and $400,000 (approximately £79,000 to £316,000).

JLo's Third Engagement Ring From Ben Affleck (2002)

Bennifer's first engagement in 2002 produced one of the most iconic engagement rings in celebrity history. Ben Affleck proposed with a 6.1-carat radiant-cut natural fancy pink diamond from Harry Winston, flanked by two smaller diamonds in a trilogy setting on a platinum band. The ring is valued at approximately $2.5 million (around £1.97 million).

Natural pink diamonds are among the rarest gemstones on earth, with their colour caused by a structural distortion in the diamond's crystal lattice during formation. The radiant cut maximises the vividness of the pink hue through its brilliant faceting pattern, making the colour appear saturated and alive from every angle. This ring is widely credited with launching the global trend for coloured diamond engagement rings among celebrities.

JLo's Fourth Engagement Ring From Marc Anthony (2004)

JLo got engaged to singer Marc Anthony in 2004. Anthony proposed with a ring designed by Harry Winston, featuring an 8.5-carat radiant-cut natural blue diamond set in platinum, with two baguette-cut white diamond side stones. The ring is estimated to be worth $4 million (approximately £3.16 million).

Blue diamonds are rarer than pink diamonds and get their colour from the presence of boron within the crystal structure during formation. At 8.5 carats, this is an exceptionally large blue diamond: stones of this colour and size almost never appear on the open market. The platinum setting was a deliberate choice, as platinum's cool, neutral tone complements the blue of the diamond without distorting it.

JLo's Fifth Engagement Ring From Alex Rodriguez (2019)

Former MLB star Alex Rodriguez proposed to JLo in March 2019 during a beach proposal in the Bahamas. Rodriguez enlisted celebrity jeweller Peter Marco to design the ring, which features a colourless emerald-cut diamond of approximately 15 carats in a clean solitaire setting on a platinum band. Gemologists described the stone as collection grade, the highest classification a diamond can receive, indicating exceptional colour and clarity. The ring is estimated to be worth between $1 million and $5 million (approximately £790,000 to £3.95 million).

JLo's Sixth Engagement Ring From Ben Affleck (2022)

Twenty years after their first engagement, Ben Affleck proposed again in April 2022 with a ring that many consider the most extraordinary in JLo's entire collection. The centrepiece is an 8.5-carat natural fancy green diamond in a cushion modified brilliant cut, sourced from diamantaire Ilan Portugali of Beverly Hills Diamonds. It is flanked by two trapezoid-shaped white diamond side stones and set in a platinum band, engraved on the inside with the words "not.going.anywhere."

Natural fancy green diamonds are the second rarest colour of diamond in the world. Their colour results from exposure to natural radiation over millions of years during formation beneath the earth's surface. Only a small handful reach the market each year, and a stone of this size and vivid saturation is exceptionally rare. The ring is estimated to be worth between $5 million and $10 million (approximately £3.95 million to £7.9 million). Green is also JLo's self-described lucky colour, referencing her iconic green Versace dress at the 2000 Grammy Awards, making the stone choice deeply personal as well as gemologically significant.
