From above, it covers roughly 4× the area of a typical 1 carat round diamond. Drawn from the reported weight and typical proportions for the cut, so treat it as a close estimate.

The story

Why this ring gets talked about

Gomez announced her engagement to Benny Blanco in December 2024. Fans quickly linked the marquise shape to her own 2015 lyric, “I’m a marquise diamond”.

The ring was designed by Abril Barret, a Los Angeles jeweller, with Blanco. Carat estimates vary more than for almost any other celebrity ring: jewellers looking at the same photos guessed anywhere from 3 to 9 carats. That’s a good reminder that photos are a poor way to judge diamond size.

What it means for you: the marquise looks bigger for its weight than any other shape, which is part of why the guesses vary so much. It has two points to protect, so a setting with V-shaped claws at each end is worth having.

Why do estimates of Selena Gomez’s ring vary so much?+
