THE TRUMP FAMILY ENGAGEMENT RINGS AND THEIR UNBELIEVABLE STORIES

From modest publicity stunts to multimillion-dollar statement pieces, the engagement rings of the Trump family come with fascinating backstories, sharp negotiations, and high-profile history.

Donald Trump Jr. proposed to his ex-wife Vanessa in 2004 with a diamond ring worth around $100,000. The surprising twist was that Don Jr. did not spend a dime on it. He secured the ring for free in exchange for proposing publicly outside a jewelry store in New Jersey and providing promotional exposure.

Donald Trump proposed to his second wife, Marla Maples, in 1993 with a stunning 7.45-carat emerald-cut diamond ring from Harry Winston. Following their divorce in 1999, Maples famously put the ring up for auction, selling it for $110,000 to donate the money to charity. Years later, the exact same ring was resold at an auction for $300,000.

When Donald Trump proposed to Melania in 2004, he chose a breathtaking 15-carat Graff diamond ring valued at around $1.5 million. Trump later claimed in interviews that he negotiated a massive 50 percent discount on the jewel, though the luxury jeweler later publicly denied giving him any special price cut. To mark their 10th anniversary, he upgraded her collection with an even larger 25-carat diamond ring valued at approximately $3 million.

Meanwhile, Tiffany Trump received a massive 13-carat emerald-cut diamond ring valued at an estimated $1.2 million when Michael Boulos proposed at the White House.
