American jewelry designer Jennifer Meyer has flaunted her diamond engagement ring from fiancé Geoffrey Ogunlesi during the star-studded Baby2Baby Gala in Los Angeles on Saturday.

The couple, seen cozied up at the event, made their first red carpet appearance since announcing their engagement in September.

Meyer’s ring, estimated to be worth around $500,000 according to The Diamond Bank in Los Angeles, sparkled under the lights, drawing attention amid a glamorous crowd that included Jessica Alba, Nicole Richie, and Paris Hilton.

Meyer, who wore an ivory minidress embellished with crystals, paired her look with a silver Gucci purse, diamond earrings, and bangle bracelets.

Ogunlesi, looking dapper in a sleek black suit and tie, complemented his fiancée’s elegant style.

The ring, which Ogunlesi selected himself, is fitting for his high-profile background. The billionaire heir is the son of Nigerian business magnate Adebayo Ogunlesi, 70.

The engagement announcement came in September when Meyer shared a heartfelt Instagram post with the caption, “YES!!!” accompanied by a black heart, infinity symbol, and sparkling stars emoji. Meyer, a mother of two and close friend of stars Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox, went public with her relationship with Ogunlesi last November after months of dating.

Friend and fellow jewelry designer Allison Wise celebrated Meyer’s engagement on Instagram, posting a photo of the two with Meyer proudly displaying her ring.

Sarah Martins, the actress, has opened up about her painful past relationship where she financially supported her ex-lover for six months.

Martins was reacting to fashion entrepreneur Veekee James’ story of abuse and financial exploitation by an ex-lover after setting up a business for him.

In a recent Instagram post, Martins revealed she once gave 50% of her monthly salary to her ex-lover for six months, only to discover he was using the money to fund another woman’s business.

The actress said the woman eventually married someone else, leaving her ex-lover abandoned. She confessed that the experience turned her into a “gold digger”.

Martins also called on women to assist their partners, but only if the support is reciprocal.

“After listening to Veekee James experience in her formal relationship, all I can say is, stop overplaying your role in a relationship! Omo if we open mouth to begin talk wetin independent women dey see for relationships you will understand the reason why most of us are currently gold diggers!” she wrote.

“Is okay to support your man but the man must have given you a certain level of support before you think of reciprocating the support in his own time of need!” she added in the caption.

“There was a time I gave my ex 50% of my monthly salary for 6 months and the werey was giving the money to another woman.

“He even funded her business from my sweat and the lady married someone else months after he finished setting up her business.

“I’m a lover girl and I go hard for people I love but ever since them show me shege on top my kind heart, I no dey give man shishi! With my full chest, I am currently a gold digger!

“#note, I will support my man the best way I can but my man must have supported me to a level that will warrant me to reciprocate his support in his own time of need!”

After calling out her baby daddy, DDG, for taking their son Halo on Kai Cenat’s livestream without telling her, American singer Halle Bailey has changed her stance.

On November 7, 2024, the actress reactivated her social media accounts and took to X to address her reaction from the day before.

She wrote, “Yesterday maybe I did overreact and shouldn’t have brought it here. I know that Halo is always safe with his dad. I just don’t like finding out with the rest of the world what my baby is doing. Thank you, Kai, for the gifts for Halo.”

Many X users came to her defence in the comment section to reassure her that she was within her right to be upset.

An X user wrote, “You did not overreact in the absolute slightest; everybody in your replies trying to police how YOU as a mother should feel about YOUR OWN child were overreacting. FUCK them.”

“Your emotions and feelings are valid, don’t ever let mfs try to tell you how to feel about your own child,” said another.

This comes after the actress faced backlash for expressing her disapproval on social media, as opposed to in private.

Her initial post on November 6, 2024, read, “Hi everyone. Just so you know, I am out of town and I don’t approve of my baby being on a stream tonight. I wasn’t told or notified and I am extremely upset to have my baby in front of millions of people.”
