The “We Belong Together” diva flashed the humungous Wilfredo Rosado bauble — which boasts two tapered diamonds around its center stone in a platinum setting — while exiting the Eleven Madison Park restaurant in NYC on Thursday night.
There’s no denying it: Thirty-five carats is huge. The average engagement ring is 1 carat, and even by celebrity standards — and we’re talking Elizabeth Taylor standards — it’s one of the biggest rings on the planet.
