Brooklyn Beckham announced his engagement to Nicola Peltz over the weekend via Instagram – and fans are already making guesses as to how much the ring is worth.

The photograph he uploaded shows Peltz wearing a lemon yellow dress, designed by his mother Victoria Beckham, and the ring can be seen on her left hand.

A subsequent photo posted on Brooklyn’s Instagram story shows a close-up view of Peltz’s ring, which appears to be an emerald cut diamond comprising between 4.5 and 5 carats.

Given its clarity, judging from the photograph, jewellers have estimated that the ring is worth up to £335,000.

Ben Jarrett of jewellery specialists and retailer Est1897 said: ”We estimate the ring to be a combined stone carat of between 4.5 and 5 carats worth of diamonds.

“A central elegant emerald cut diamond, the band itself is most likely platinum and is adorned with additional diamonds.

“The ring appears as though it is a D in colour and IF in clarity, the highest possible quality of diamond, with internally flawless clarity, free from any imperfections found on a ring, we estimate the price to be approx £335,000 for this unique designer piece.”

Brooklyn is thought to have designed the ring himself, leading Jarrett to believe that a high-end designer will be behind it, “which will also have enhanced the price”.

The jeweller noted that Victoria’s first engagement ring was a three-carat marquise-cut diamond set on a plain yellow gold band.

That ring was estimated to be £65,000 ($80,000) at the time.

Both Peltz and Brooklyn wrote gushing messages to one another in their respective engagement announcement posts.

“You’ve made me the luckiest girl in the world. I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life by your side,” the Bates Motel star wrote.

Meanwhile, Brooklyn vowed to be the “best husband and the best daddy one day”.

The duo are thought to have been dating for nine months.
