American jewelry designer Jennifer Meyer has flaunted her diamond engagement ring from fiancé Geoffrey Ogunlesi during the star-studded Baby2Baby Gala in Los Angeles on Saturday.
The couple, seen cozied up at the event, made their first red carpet appearance since announcing their engagement in September.
Meyer’s ring, estimated to be worth around $500,000 according to The Diamond Bank in Los Angeles, sparkled under the lights, drawing attention amid a glamorous crowd that included Jessica Alba, Nicole Richie, and Paris Hilton.
Meyer, who wore an ivory minidress embellished with crystals, paired her look with a silver Gucci purse, diamond earrings, and bangle bracelets.
Ogunlesi, looking dapper in a sleek black suit and tie, complemented his fiancée’s elegant style.
The ring, which Ogunlesi selected himself, is fitting for his high-profile background. The billionaire heir is the son of Nigerian business magnate Adebayo Ogunlesi, 70.
The engagement announcement came in September when Meyer shared a heartfelt Instagram post with the caption, “YES!!!” accompanied by a black heart, infinity symbol, and sparkling stars emoji. Meyer, a mother of two and close friend of stars Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox, went public with her relationship with Ogunlesi last November after months of dating.
Friend and fellow jewelry designer Allison Wise celebrated Meyer’s engagement on Instagram, posting a photo of the two with Meyer proudly displaying her ring.
