American jewelry designer Jennifer Meyer showcased her stunning diamond engagement ring from fiancé Geoffrey Ogunlesi at the glamorous Baby2Baby Gala in Los Angeles on Saturday.
The couple, appearing together on the red carpet for the first time since announcing their engagement in September, looked cozy and happy. Meyer’s ring, valued at an estimated $500,000 by The Diamond Bank in Los Angeles, sparkled under the event lights and caught attention among celebrities like Jessica Alba, Nicole Richie, and Paris Hilton.
Meyer dazzled in an ivory crystal-embellished minidress, accessorized with a silver Gucci purse, diamond earrings, and bangle bracelets. Ogunlesi, wearing a sleek black suit and tie, perfectly complemented her elegant style.
Ogunlesi, a billionaire heir and son of Nigerian business mogul Adebayo Ogunlesi, personally selected the ring, a fitting choice given his high-profile family background. Meyer first revealed their engagement in September with a heartfelt Instagram post captioned “YES!!!” along with a black heart, infinity symbol, and sparkling star emojis. She and Ogunlesi went public with their relationship last November after several months of dating.
Fellow jewelry designer and close friend Allison Wise celebrated Meyer’s engagement with an Instagram post, sharing a photo of the two and Meyer proudly showing her ring. “So happy for this angel queen—my everything BEST friend who is marrying her soulmate! I love you and can’t wait to keep celebrating you both!” Wise wrote.
Meyer’s 476,000 Instagram followers joined in congratulating her on the engagement, adding to her joy on this dazzling evening.
