Ben Affleck really has a thing for colored diamonds. The first time around, Affleck proposed to Jennifer Lopez with a $2.5 million pink diamond purchased from Harry Winston. The unique sparkler was such a statement piece that it helped start a trend of celebs proposing with pink rings. It also piqued Barbara Streisand’s interest. “I met [Streisand] at an Oscar party, years ago, and I was at the time engaged to Ben Affleck, and she’s really into diamonds,” Lopez shared with Zane Lowe. “So, she came up to me, and… she’s like, ‘Can I see your ring?'” During the same interview, J-Lo admitted she “loved getting it,” but what about returning it?

Well, it’s not exactly clear if Lopez kept the ring or not. Shortly after their breakup, a source close to Lopez shared that she planned on returning the dazzling rock. “She plans on quietly giving the ring back,” the source shared with ABC News. “She’s not doing this for the media. She’s doing it for closure. It’s the relationship’s death certificate. He has demons that will never go away.” However, Lopez’s former publicist suggested the opposite in 2021. “As far as I know, Jen has never returned the ring,” Robert Shuter told Page Six. “So if things move forward with these two, gosh, she’s already got the most beautiful ring I’ve seen.” Fair point.
