Not every season of The Bachelor, The Bachelorette or Bachelor in Paradise ends with a diamond engagement ring, but when it does, it’s worth seeing.
Through the years, the franchise has provided Us with entertainment and glamour thanks to Neil Lane. Season after season, the jewelry designer has crafted the perfect sparkler — each unique for the year’s lucky couple. From Rachel Lindsay‘s 3-carat diamond to JoJo Fletcher‘s oval stunner, it’s hard to pick which ring stands out the most.
Lane revealed in an interview with The New York Times in 2019 that he’s a hopeless romantic, and though some Bachelor Nation romances don’t work out, he tries to “focus” on the immense love they shared on screen when designing jewels.
“It’s all about the love and affection and sharing that people have,” he told the newspaper. “Sometimes it doesn’t work out, with all the pretty finery and the lavish or exotic weddings. It just doesn’t. But for a moment in time, there is a real unity between people, there’s a real magnificent energy that comes out of these people that I’m working with.”
Windey, meanwhile, fell for Erich Schwer. He got down on one knee with an oval-cut diamond. Two months later, however, the duo confirmed their split.
