Stacey Solomon's new engagement ring is worth less than the original, says jewel expert

Stacey Solomon's second engagement ring reportedly costs less than her first one.

The Loose Women panellist tied the knot with her new hubby Joe Swash on Sunday at their Pickle Cottage home.

Joe - who shares two children with Stacey - popped the question on Christmas Eve 2020, with the TV presenter going on to excitedly share snaps of her stunning diamond ring online moments later.

A few days before their wedding, Joe surprised the star with a brand new engagement ring as she 'wears more gold than silver'.

Writing on her Instagram Stories last week, the star explained: "It's all the same stones but we moved them around abit [sic] so it was more dainty on my fingers."

And now, experts at UK retailer Steven Stone took a look at the two rings to find out how much they cost.

Engagement ring specialist and creative director Maxwell Stone estimated the ring to be worth £12,500, which is £2,500 less than the original ring.

He said: "Stacey’s updated engagement ring features a cushion diamond in a four-claw setting – allowing the diamond to sparkle brightly.

"Stacey's gone from a halo design to a simple solitaire design, which combines practicality and diamond security with elegance, while remaining true to any style.

"I'm glad to see that it still possesses its sentimental value with the inclusion of Australian opals – representing both Stacey’s birthstone and where the couple fell in love."

Stacey took a little break from social media on Sunday as she married the love of her life in her back garden.

The bride and groom celebrated with family and friends inside a large marquee after exchanging vows, according to the Mail Online.

Stacey and Joe were reported to have been joined by Stacey's Loose Women pals while James Argent's The Arg Band performed at the celebration following a Jewish ceremony.

A source told the website: "Stacey and Joe had the best day of their lives.

"It was exactly everything they had hoped for, the weather was glorious, and they had a joyous day with their children and family.

"It was also important to Stacey for her day to uphold her strong Jewish values, as well as be a modern and fun day for everyone."
