Surprise! Kat Dennings just announced that she’s engaged to her beau, Andrew W.K. The news might shock some fans, since the Dollface star, 34, went public with her relationship one week ago. However, that didn’t stop Dennings from flaunting her new engagement ring on her personal Instagram account, sharing a slideshow of photos featuring the massive sparkler.
So, what does Kat Dennings’s engagement ring look like? And how much did it cost? Here’s what we know.
We turned to Ajay Anand (CEO of Rare Carat), who explained the ring in terms we can understand. “I’d estimate Kat’s as a 4-carat cushion shaped diamond with side stones set in either white gold or platinum,” he told PureWow. “The setting has a classic, tapered look—a very safe, evergreen choice.”
Anand went on to explain that it’s a trendy engagement ring style, adding, “Cushions are definitely a popular choice, the most popular after rounds.”
Anand estimated the engagement ring to cost around $75,000. Of course, it’s important to note that his prediction is based on typical retail value, which varies based on the characteristics of the diamond.
He’s a rock singer who goes by Andrew W.K. (though his full name is Andrew Fetterly Wilkes-Krier). He’s widely known for his debut studio album I Get Wet, which includes singles like “Party Hard” and “We Want Fun.”
We don’t know exactly when he met Dennings, since the pair have kept their relationship on the down low. The couple announced their engagement on their retrospective Instagram accounts and shared a slideshow of the same three photos. “Don’t mind if I do,” Dennings captioned the post.
