Staying ahead of the style trend, the pink diamond was set in a stunning rose gold ring complementing the color of the stone perfectly.

Securing his place in tennis star Anna Kournikova's heart with an exquisite 11 carat pink pear shaped diamond ring was the romantic Spanish singer Enrique Iglesias. The luxurious fancy stone with trillion cut side diamonds costing $2.5 million was given by Enrique to the love of his life back in 2010.
