A Lana Del Rey Engagement Ring That’s Perfect for the Bayou Beauty

It’s the wedding heard round the world. Yes, folks, our beloved queen of melancholic melody, Lana Del Rey is married. What’s more, it’s been just a blink after shouting their love from the rooftops. Or, in celeb speak, being photographed holding hands. Because, darling, subtlety is so last season. While Lana’s thrifted dress left us starry-eyed, an engagement ring was conspicuously MIA. No fret, darlings, because dreaming up the perfect Lana Del Rey engagement ring is the next best thing. We’ve farmed our fantasies to pull our top five engagement ring picks that are equally at home among the stars as they are the swamp.

The Lana Del Rey Jeremy Dufrene Timeline

Hold onto your flower crowns, darlings, because this love tale whizzes by quicker than a shooting star over Laurel Canyon. And somewhat confusingly, the details are in softer focus than a Lana Del Rey music video. Del Rey and Dufrene crossed paths in 2019 after Del Rey signed up for a private alligator tour, but initially, they remained just friends.

Fast forward five years to May 2024, Del Rey mentions Dufrene in an Instagram caption, writing, “Family w my guy @jeremy.dufrene”. Sparking dating rumors, onlookers spot the two holding hands in August. They go public with their relationship in September at a friend’s wedding. In just 15 short days, they secure a marriage license and officially tie the knot three days later.

Before Dufrene, Lana Del Rey was engaged to Evan Winiker, an artist/manager affiliated with Range Media Partners. In March of 2023, Winiker proposed with a stunning three-stone engagement ring, but the engagement was called off and the ring came off by December of the same year.

Does Lana Del Rey Have an Engagement Ring?

It’s possible! Despite never being seen in public with an engagement ring, we wouldn’t put it past Del Rey to try to keep her personal life and relationships private. It is worth mentioning that she was papped while wearing a diamond sparkler on that finger. However, she’s also been known to forgo tradition and has often flaunted diamond rings on her ring finger just to confuse crowds.

Our Top Engagement Ring Picks for Lana Del Rey

On the off chance that JearBear has yet to select a ring we humbly offer our totally brilliant, absolutely unmatched taste in all things bling. These five engagement rings sing songstress with a dash of old Hollywood glamor and a pinch of modern-day cool.

Rub a dub dub with the Bezel Bathtub

Maybe it’s the style of her songs, maybe it’s the lyrics, but we could absolutely see Lana Del Rey swimming in the sea of sumptuousness that is our Golden Bathtub engagement ring. Rose cuts cast sweet shimmering sparkles that are particularly suited for candlelight. They’re a natural choice to invoke moody romanticism. And when you enrobe said rose cut in opulent, rich gold? Well, you get her dreamy nostalgia, wrapped neatly in luxe and vintage-inspired glam. Talk about ‘born to die’ for.

Interestingly, rose cuts are actually one of the oldest diamond cuts around. So if you’re looking for a touch of storied flair you can’t go wrong with a rose cut classic.

Looking for a unique flash? Step cuts, like emeralds, Asschers and baguettes, reflect light differently than brilliant cut diamonds. Instead of throwing sparkles, you’ll get glorious flashes of light and their characteristic hall-of-mirrors-like effect.

Bombshell-ready flash with vintage vibes

Of course, we can’t mention Del Rey’s style without talking about its inspiration. Most often, Del Rey invokes the 50s and 60s, and plays with Lolita-tinged nostalgia. Critics and fans alike attribute words like dreamy, romantic, and melancholic to her sense of fashion.

The Bombshell is a perfect marriage of Del Rey’s nostalgic and glamorous look. A central emerald cut diamond magnificently flashes and is held securely in place by imposing (and dare we say) melancholic claw prongs. On either side, three baguette diamonds glint – offering full finger coverage that doesn’t skimp on the sparkle. It’s opulent, it’s nostalgic, it’s modern – It’s perfectly Lana Del Rey.

A half eternity setting with step cut sparkles

Dufrene, take note—Del Rey didn’t sing, “Buy me lots of diamonds” for nothing. This custom Asscher cut ring has a half eternity band of baguette diamonds. Resulting in a perfect pair of old-world allure and modern marvel, this diamond ring brings the bling.

Bonus! The bezel setting is one of the most secure ways to hold your diamond. It’s a perfect choice for anyone dancing on international stages or surveying a swamp. And with a central prong set diamond, this ring truly is the best of both worlds.
Pear cut diamonds can get a bad rep (thanks Sex in the City!). But we love their playful shape and sparkly look.

Lana Del Rey isn’t always prim and proper. She’s funny, authentic, a little quirky. Shouldn’t her engagement ring match? This east west set pear cut diamond doesn’t just sit there. No, it lounges sideways, flirts with the rules, and perches above a band that twists and curves like a rollercoaster track.

Mixing old-school glam with new-age sass, a custom asymmetrical ring perfectly matches the energy Lana Del Rey brings to the recording studio.

Five stone simplicity

While “simplistic” is not a word we’d use to describe Del Rey, the clean lines and understated elegance of our Emerald Five Stone sparkle with a life of their own. In fact, we would go so far as to say the band’s step-cut emeralds perfectly mirror her artistry – equal parts haunting, beautiful, and deeply emotive.

The Elements of a Lana Del Rey Engagement Ring

Stepping into Lana Del Rey’s world, imagine an engagement ring line that’s less about the traditional “I do” and more about making a statement that says, “I dare.” At its heart? Bold beauties with unique characteristics like salt and pepper or champagne diamonds find their place. Geometric step cuts such as emeralds and Asschers, along with romantic vintage styles like rose, old-European, and old-mine, blend the past and present perfectly.

For the setting, envision gold creamy bands that deliver statement-making shine. Looking to infuse Del Rey’s trademark hauntingly romantic vibes? Delicate filigree details or big Art Deco swirls should be your go-to. The result? A ring that embodies equal parts rock, roll, and sweet summertime sadness.
