Molly-Mae Hague shows off huge engagement ring from Tommy Fury which could be worth £400,000
A gemstone expert has estimated how much Molly-Mae Hague's engagement ring could be worth.
Molly-Mae may have once said that everyone has the same 24 hours in a day, but I don't think many people could relate to the last few days of her life.
Oh, and the fact that her engagement ring might be worth the same price as a house deposit or even a house itself.

Molly-Mae and Tommy Fury first got together on season five of Love Island in 2019. They later moved into together and then she gave birth to the couple's baby girl, Bambi, on 23 January.
Tommy got down on one knee six months later on 23 July and the former Love Island stars announced their engagement with a sweet video posted to Instagram soon after.
She captioned the post: "Forever. 23/07/23"
But with Tommy having an overall net worth of over £1 million and Molly-Mae over £3 million as of 2022, how much did he splash out for a ring?
Well, gemologist and design expert wedding ring specialist at jewellers Queensmith, Laura Suttie, has taken a look at Molly-Mae's engagement ring and has given her analysis on it.
She told the Daily Record: "Molly-Mae’s engagement ring looks to be a stunning and timeless five-carat oval diamond, a shape that is gaining popularity in recent years.
"Based on its size and if it is natural, this diamond is estimated to be worth around £400k."
Suttie admits the public are 'yet to see a close-up of the ring' but it 'appears to have a platinum diamond set band' which adds 'further sparkle'.
"If Molly Mae’s diamond is a natural diamond, it is an incredibly rare find. Five carats is a considerable weight for a diamond - even those who work in the world of diamonds may only come across a handful of truly exceptional five-carat diamonds every few years," the expert adds.
"Currently, the largest diamond sizes are typically found in the USA, suggesting that if Tommy opted for a natural diamond, he likely acquired it in the US."
With a natural diamond an 'incredibly rare find' - particularly given the size, high quality and 'elongated, increased spread' of Molly-Mae's ring - Suttie notes there's a 'high chance' the diamond may be 'lab-grown rather than naturally sourced'.
Either way, Tommy certainly shelled out a hefty amount, with five-carat lab-grown rings in the UK 'currently worth around £20-40,000', according to Suttie.
