When Justin Rose proposed to his now-wife, Whitney Rose, he gifted her with a gorgeous diamond engagement ring. However, it's not the sparkler she wears today.
"I used to have this big, beautiful oval, and I lost it," Whitney told The Daily Dish on November 6. "It’s kind of a touchy story. [My daughter] Bobbie was two, and she loved to wear my jewelry and she called them 'pretties.' She was throwing a fit [and] we were in this nice sushi restaurant, so I put it in my pocket to hide it from her so she’d stop asking for my 'pretty.' So I lost my original engagement ring."
Now, Whitney wears another stunning engagement ring in its place. "I’m an old-school girly, so it's actually yellow-gold. I just dipped it to become white gold, for me. You can dip it," she explained. "I love tradition, I like old-school, so I have [a] baguette[-shaped stone] and pavé [diamonds]. I specifically love my engagement ring."
"This one is really special because Justin gave this to me after I had our son, Brooks," Whitney continued. "And I had nearly lost my life when I delivered Brooks, so this was a really meaningful, just the way that he presented it and the meaning behind it."
As the couple approaches their 15-year anniversary ahead of the holiday season, Whitney has her next ring in mind.
"Since it’s our 15-year anniversary, [I] would love something on this side of my hands," she quipped. "Even owning a jewelry business, [I would] still love a diamond from my husband."
