The news of Hailey Baldwin and Justin Bieber's engagement [1] shook the internet big time. Devoted fans uncovered a few videos [2] of the new couple in the Bahamas, where Justin popped the question while they were vacationing [3]. Even still, an engagement ring [4] wasn't visible at first. That is, until this tweet [5] made its rounds.
And finally, Hailey and Justin returned from their trip, Hailey toting her Tumi suitcase wearing a pair of cutoffs, a Supreme varsity jacket, and yep, her oval-shaped engagement ring that glistened brighter than the sunlight. Many people are speculating that its size and shape is inspired by Blake Lively's Lorraine Schwartz engagement ring [6], which Hailey tweeted her admiration of in 2012 [7].
But E! got the scoop on the one-of-a-kind piece from Solow & Co., which Justin had a hand in designing [8]. "He had certain design elements that he wanted, and he had certain expectations, and I think we delivered," said Jack Solow, confirming that it was important to incorporate 18K gold. "There was one moment when he looked into the diamond, and I said, 'What do you see inside that diamond?' He goes, 'I think I see Hailey's face,' so that was kind of cute."
Before now, Hailey wore a stackable diamond band [9] on her ring finger for a long time that some people mistook for a promise band. Since Hailey and Justin's rekindled romance [10] seems slightly sudden and offbeat, we aren't exactly surprised that zero traditional "OMG, I'm engaged!" photos [11] have sprouted up on Hailey's feed, but nevertheless, let's take a peek at the sparkler that Hailey's using to replace her old go-to bling.
