Megan Fox's Engagement Ring: A Passionately Symbolic Toi et Moi

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly's engagement in January 2022 captivated fans worldwide, not only for their intense romance but also for the unique and symbolic engagement ring that marked their commitment. Designed by British jeweller and close friend to the couple, Stephen Webster, the ring is a modern interpretation of the classic Toi et Moi style, featuring two pear shaped stones: a reported D-colour antique-cut diamond and a vivid Colombian emerald, representing their respective birthstones.

The proposal took place beneath the same banyan tree where the couple first declared their love in July 2020. Machine Gun Kelly, whose real name is Colson Baker, set up a recording and the couple later shared the video of the proposal on social media.

Megan Fox's engagement ring is a toi et moi, featuring two pear shaped stones nestled together, approximately 3ct each, with their tips facing downwards. The stones are set on two magnetic 18k white gold pavé bands with sharp, thorn-like features. The bands draw together as two halves of the same soul to form a heart shape, symbolising the couple's union. The ring's design is both romantic and edgy, reflecting the couple's unique bond.

Machine Gun Kelly shared that he designed the ring to be representative of the two of them: the emerald (Megan's birthstone) and the diamond (his birthstone). While rumours circulated the internet that the ring was designed to hurt Megan if taken off, this was believed by jewellers and experts to be a bit of a joke… We’d hope no ring would be designed to cause discomfort! Remember, rings must be regularly removed, and never worn at the gym or during various activities, so we certainly don’t advise a purposefully painful ring removal.

Experts estimate the ring's value to be $500,000 (£370,000 GBP), depending on the quality and size of the stones. The unique design and symbolism add to its significance and worth. If the diamond and emerald were lab grown, the cost could be 80% cheaper. However, the diamond is believed to be antique, and few people choose lab emeralds as they can appear overly flawless. Natural emeralds contain inclusions, so entirely flawless lab emeralds could appear a little inauthentic. Megan’s emerald appears all natural.

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly met in March 2020 on the set of the film Midnight in the Switchgrass. They began dating shortly after and confirmed their relationship by July 2020. The couple announced their engagement in January 2022. Despite facing challenges, including a brief breakup in early 2023, they reconciled and welcomed their first child together in March 2025. While their relationship status appears to be on-off, it is believed they have ultimately gone their separate ways.

If you're inspired by Megan Fox's engagement ring, Queensmith offers bespoke services to craft a similar piece tailored to your preferences. Here are some things to ask for:

• Toi et moi design: Embrace the romantic symbolism of two stones representing two souls. So many different diamond shapes look great together, such as a princess cut or emerald cut and pear shape, cushion and radiant diamonds, or, like Megan, you could choose two pear shapes.
• A diamond & emerald: Pairing a diamond and emerald is a classic choice for a toi et moi. Alternatively, you could have two diamonds, or mix a diamond with hardy stones like a sapphire or ruby. Another popular option is a colourless diamond with a fancy yellow diamond.
• Custom bands: Incorporate unique elements like a contoured or shaped band. A dramatic ‘V’ shape band would add extra flair to your ring, or you could keep it a little more classic with a plain, simple band.

Our expert jewellers will guide you through the process, ensuring your custom ring reflects both quality craftsmanship and personal significance.
