Who is Kate Upton? Well, if you somehow don’t know who she is and love large diamonds, you will definitely get to know her now. That’s because this beautiful blonde model/actress just received a $1.5 million engagement ring. Though the ring is on the "simple" side and consists of a solitaire setting, it includes an enormous stone set upon a diamond-studded band. Believed to be an 8-carat diamond, the ring was the brainchild of Anita Ko who collaborated with fiancé Justin Verlander on the design.

The Ring
He may be ten years her senior, but he sure knows how to make his bride-to-be a happy woman. The baseball player surprised the model-turned-actress with a one-of-a-kind massive diamond engagement ring after working together with one of the most famous and prestigious jewelry designers. The result is a combination of traditional and “totally out there.” With “only” one stone, the solitaire ring sticks out like a (very pretty) sore thumb thanks to the very large colorless diamond and diamond-embellished band.
The Couple
Kate Upton and Justin Verlander have been dating for three years. Though he finally popped the question, the two are taking their time and do not yet have plans to tie the knot. Sharing this unique ring with the world allowed the pair to finally come forth with their developing relationship. The ring, like their love, is "rare and exceptional."
Though practically every woman would die for a ring of this caliber, not every woman could pull it off the way Kate has. Kudos for wearing that stunner like it should be worn and flaunting it for all its worth. Congratulations to the engaged couple and may this be the beginning of a diamond-filled (and happy) future.
