Megan’s $340,000 bespoke ring
The actress’ stunning ring features a diamond and emerald in honor of the couple’s respective birthstones.
MKG designed the bespoke piece with top jeweler Stephen Webster, explaining that the gems are ‘set on two magnetic bands of thorns that draw together as two halves of the same soul forming the obscure heart that is our love’.
Alexandra Michell of Gemologist Prestige Pawnbrokers told MailOnline that the unique ring is likely to retail for up to $340,000.
‘Each pear shape stone appears to be approx. 3cts on two magnetic diamond pave set bands shaped like thorns, signed Stephen Webster, the gem expert explained.
The 35-year-old actress also said: ‘I don’t really look at social media or anything, so I don’t know.’
In the proposal video post, Megan wrote a long caption, where she revealed they ‘drank each other’s blood’ to celebrate the occasion, which took place outside of the Spa Botánico at the Ritz-Carlton Dorado Beach in Puerto Rico.
‘In July of 2020 we sat under this banyan tree. We asked for magic. We were oblivious to the pain we would face together in such a short, frenetic period of time,’ began Megan, who first became romantically linked to MGK in May of 2020.
She continued: ‘Unaware of the work and sacrifices the relationship would require from us but intoxicated off of the love. And the karma.
‘Somehow a year and a half later, having walked through hell together, and having laughed more than I ever imagined possible, he asked me to marry him.
‘And just as in every lifetime before this one, and as in every lifetime that will follow it, I said yes.
‘….and then we drank each other’s blood 1.11.22,’ concluded the actress.
The location for the proposal was outside the Spa Botánico at the Ritz-Carlton Dorado Beach in Puerto Rico.
Suites at the luxe hotel begin at $2,300 for the month of January and the retreat describes itself as ‘a wonderland for well-being, reflecting a shared vision to create a transformative wellness experience infused by the healing power of nature’.

Alexandra Michell Gemologist Prestige Pawnbrokers of Channel 4’s Posh Pawn told MailOnline that the unique ring is likely to retail for up to $340,000.
‘Each pear shape stone appears to be approx. 3cts on two magnetic diamond pave set bands shaped like thorns, signed Stephen Webster. This is a different choice from the traditional engagement ring style and is reminiscent of vintage Toi et Moi rings, the gem expert explained.
‘The style is favored by other celebs including Emily Ratajkowski but dates back to fashion icon Jackie Kennedy. I would estimate this to retail for up to $340,000, being a Stephen Webster bespoke piece, with an emerald specially sourced for the ring.’
