Kylie Minogue

On Saturday, Kylie announced her engagement to British actor Joshua Sasse in the Daily Telegraph's Forthcoming Marriages section. Days earlier, at an awards ceremony, the Australian singer had been coy about rumours she was tying the knot — but, with a not-so-subtle sweep of the hair, her diamond ring said it all. Kylie, 47, has shrugged off the age gap between her and Sasse, 28, commenting: 'Even if I try and act cool and natural, it's written all over my face that I am very happy.' Well, with a rock like that, it's no surprise.

Beyoncé

Beyoncé, 34, and her rapper husband Jay-Z married in secret. It wasn't until after their wedding in 2008 that we saw her engagement ring. It may have just the one stone, but that is a 20-carat diamond the size of a boiled sweet and is reported to have cost Jay-Z £3 million ($4million). Just as well he is worth £375 million ($525million) — the woman whose most famous lyric urged men to 'put a ring on it' could hardly sport something from Argos, could she?

Today, Jason is worth £34million ($48million) and gave Rosie a five-carat diamond ring worth £250,000 ($350,000). By coincidence, Rosie seems unable to keep that pesky strand of hair off her face.

They wed in May 2014 — so the marriage is already more successful than Kim's last one, which endured just 72 days.
