Perrie Edwards and fiancé Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain got engaged in 2022, after six years of dating, and her engagement ring was certainly worth the wait.

Perrie Edwards and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain announced their engagement during a romantic holiday together all the way back in 2022.

The pair have been enjoying a long engagement as they've yet to have their wedding, with no confirmed date on the horizon.

But their original announcement had Little Mix bandmates and fans alike in tears, even more so when they saw Perrie’s stunning engagement ring!

Alongside photos of the moment Alex proposed, Perrie wrote on Instagram: “Last night the love of my life got down on one knee and I said… YES!”

Perrie’s engagement ring featured a large oval diamond in the centre of an elegant gold band and is apparently incredibly rare according to experts at The Diamond Pro's who spoke to Hello!

They suggested Perrie's ring was between 10 to 12 carats and 'is likely worth a half-million dollars' (£408k).

Well, Alex does have an estimated net worth of around £13.1 million and reportedly receives £120,000 a week for playing for Liverpool.

In May 2020, Perrie’s bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock got engaged to beau Andre Gray, and he gifted her a massive, cushion-cut black diamond rumoured to have cost £40,000.

Perrie had been dropping engagement hints to Alex for years since they first began dating back in 2016.

In an Instagram post, she accidentally added an ‘e’ to her boyfriend’s second name, later responding: “It’ll be way easier to spell when it’s my second name and I have to write it all the time.”

She also referred to Alex's mum as her 'mother-in-law' back in 2018.

In May 2021, the couple announced they were expecting their first child, and in August they welcomed baby Axel together with bandmate Leigh-Anne also became a mother, to twins, just days before!
