Up Close & Personal with THE Ring Everyone is Talking About!

April 13th:
Angelina Jolie was spotted wearing the ring at a private event at Los Angeles County Museum of Art's Chinese Gallerie that she attended with the couples 6 children...


Press outlets everywhere reported the engagement - though the couples representatives hadn't commented...then the first comment that made the reality of the news believable.  

"I can confirm that, yes, Robert Procop did indeed design an engagement ring for Angelina Jolie, designed in collaboration with Brad Pitt," a rep for the Beverly Hills jeweler told THR."

 Then from Brad Pitt's manager: 

"Yes, it's confirmed. It is a promise for the future, and their kids are very happy. There's no date set at this time. Brad designed the ring," the representative, Cynthia Pett-Dante, told CNN.

Jewelry designer Robert Procop of Beverly Hills, California, designed the diamond engagement ring after a yearlong collaboration with Pitt, his representative said.

"(Pitt) wanted every aspect of it to be perfect, so Robert was able to locate a diamond of the finest quality and cut it to an exact custom size and shape to suit Angelina's hand," the representative said. "Brad was always heavily involved, overseeing every aspect of the creative design evolution. The side diamonds are specially cut to encircle her finger."

The couple has six children together, who are asking them to get married...

"They figured out what marriage is now, they're old enough so now they kind of like the idea of it," Jolie told "Extra" in February. "But we're still convinced that half of them just want to party. They've heard there's good cake."
