Mariah Carey's Jaw-Dropping $7.5 Million Engagement Ring from James Packer: A New Standard for Hollywood Bling?

In a move that has sent shockwaves through the celebrity engagement ring world, Mariah Carey recently received a stunning 35-carat diamond engagement ring from her Aussie billionaire beau, James Packer. Worth an estimated $7.5 million, this colossal emerald-cut diamond center stone is more than twice the weight of the 17-carat emerald-cut pink diamond she received from former husband Nick Cannon in 2008.

The ring, which was custom designed by New York-based jeweler Wilfredo Rosado, features a platinum setting and is surrounded by tapered baguettes. Packer popped the question to Carey in New York City this past Thursday, marking a particularly indulgent moment in the singer's life.

While Carey has certainly had her fair share of high-profile relationships over the years, her romance with Packer marked a new level of extravagance for the legendary singer. With their combined wealth and influence, it's no surprise that their engagement ring would be one of the most valuable in Hollywood history.

Despite the ring's staggering value, Carey has reportedly moved on from Packer, and is currently dating 35-year-old Bryan Tanaka. The couple appears to be going strong, and Carey has been vocal about her choice to surround herself with positivity as she moves forward in her life.

It remains to be seen what will become of the ring in the future, but one thing is certain - Mariah Carey's engagement ring from James Packer sets a new standard for Hollywood bling.
