Lauren Sanchez's diamond ring causes UPROAR as jewelers reveal truth
Share this @internewscast.com

Lauren Sanchez is known for her eye-catching jewelry, yet her newest piece has sparked controversy among fans who worry it’s poorly crafted and could result in her losing the costly gem.

The 55-year-old ex-journalist first flaunted an impressive diamond ring in 2023 after Jeff Bezos, her current husband, proposed on his $500 million yacht, Koru. The Amazon mogul, aged 61, stealthily placed the ring under her pillow following a private dinner to propose.

This original ring, estimated at roughly 30 carats, is valued between $3 million and $5 million. In a Vogue interview, Sánchez disclosed that the piece features a rare pink diamond with a rosy hue.

However, Sánchez was quick to upgrade her multi-million dollar engagement ring for her actual wedding. During her over-the-top wedding week in Venice, Italy, Sánchez showed off a new dazzler that jewelers previously told Daily Mail they believe is worth between a mindboggling $1.5 million and $5 million, which is just a drop in the ocean for the billionaire. 

While the ring surely impressed their slew of celebrity wedding guests, on social media, people quickly called out the design for seemingly being too delicate to support the massive diamond.  

Now, insiders are exclusively revealing to Daily Mail whether or not the oversized diamond from jeweler to the stars Lorraine Schwartz will hold up, or if it’s at risk at being lost during Sánchez’s next space or yacht excursion.

Deena Bassam, the owner of Deena Diamond Designs, shared a viral TikTok declaring, ‘A band that thin with a diamond that size… It’s an accident waiting to happen,’ including a closeup of the jewel. Bassam went on to say in the caption, ‘I’m scared.’

The Dallas, Texas-based jewelry designer explained, ‘Your ring should not only fit your aesthetic preferences but also suite your lifestyle.’ Sánchez is famously busy, often traveling the world with Bezos on his boat and even venturing to space on his star-studded Blue Origin flight alongside Katy Perry. 

Bassam exclusively told Daily Mail that she tells her own clients, ‘There is no piece of jewelry that is made of precious metals and diamonds or gemstone that is “indestructible,” no matter how well crafted it is.’ 

When Bassam crafts pieces she always gives ‘honest, upfront advice on potential risks’ as well as suggesting less risky options for particularly delicate designs.

Bassam’s commenters were quick to voice their concerns on social media, with many appalled by the sheer size of the diamond and its seemingly wildly delicate band.

Many thought the ring could be structurally weakened because of all of the smaller diamonds, putting it at risk. However, it’s likely Sánchez doesn’t partake in the activities of plebeians, like packing or dishes, where she could easily lose a gem. 

‘They’re filthy rich and I’m sure it’s insured. If it pops out, she’ll get another,’ one person mused. 

‘With their money, it literally doesn’t matter if it breaks in like a month and she loses it,’ another commenter pointed out, as Bezos is said to be worth an estimated $238.8 billion.

Gemologist Olivia Landau told Daily Mail that it’s ‘typically not recommended to set a diamond (especially in that large of a size) in a band that thin.’ 

‘If the band is too thin, the pave diamonds are more likely to bend and the pave diamonds are more likely to fall out,’ Landau, based in New York City, clarified.

However, not everyone believes it’s an accident waiting to happen. Monil Kothari, CEO and founder of Haus of Brilliance jewelry, told Daily Mail: ‘Platinum is basically the workhorse of fine jewelry — strong, durable, and built to last.’ 

Kothari thinks ‘the design actually looks smart,’ because ‘it appears to distribute the diamond’s weight evenly across the finger, which takes a ton of pressure off the band itself,’ which is ‘not poor craftsmanship.’ 

‘My hot take? It’s a gorgeous stone, a beautiful ring, and there’s way too much haterade online,’ Kothari quipped.

‘Honestly, I find it laughable that people are speculating that the founder of Amazon is sitting around hoping the ring fails so he can collect on an insurance claim. This isn’t an amateur hour jewelry job,’ Kothari continued. 

‘Bezos isn’t shopping on Alibaba — any professional worth their salt makes sure a ring like this is engineered to last.’
