Here’s everything we know about Meghan Markle’s new ring (so far, anyway).So, is Meghan’s new jewelry an engagement ring?Some fans initially believed that the pear-shaped diamond was an upgrade for her trilogy engagement ring—so when her OG engagement ring was prominently displayed in this As Ever Instagram post from February 22 (pls see slide 2), fans were understandably confused.Add Cosmopolitan as a preferred source in your Google search results.Use your Google account to add this to your settings.As Ever / Meghan Markle//InstagramWhat they didn’t realize: Meghan has only ever worn her new rock on her right ring finger while still wearing her trilogy engagement ring on her left.It’s unclear whether this is the intention behind Meghan’s pear-shaped sparkler, but Angie Kennedy, Zales’s vice president of product merchandising, tells Elle, “Right-hand rings often reflect personal style and milestones rather than tradition. For a piece of this significance, wearing it on the right hand allows it to shine as a statement and highlights her individual self-expression.”How much does Meghan’s pear-shaped diamond ring cost?Don’t look at us like that—we know you’re wondering! Per Elle, several jewelers estimate that Meghan’s ring is between 4 and 6 carats and worth up to six figures.Steph Mazuera, the jeweler behind her own namesake brand, tells the outlet, “The center stone appears to be approximately 5 to 6 carats. For a high-quality natural diamond in that size range, you are easily looking at a six-figure valuation.”The founder and CEO of Alexandra Beth Fine Jewelry, Alexandra Samit, believes pear-shapes are the new “it” stone on the market, adding that Meghan’s has “an estimated value starting at around $250,000, depending on the diamond’s quality.”Kristina Bumphrey//Getty ImagesGood!
