Charles Leclerc has paid an enormous amount for the engagement ring of his future wife, Alexandra Saint Mleux. It is said to have cost more than half a million dollars.

Charles Leclerc and his girlfriend announced last weekend that they are getting married. In the photos shared by the couple, you can also see the ring with which Leclerc popped the question to Saint Mleux.

This is how much Alexandra’s ring is worth

The British newspaper The Daily Mail asked an expert about the estimated price of the ring. Laura Taylor, a jeweler specializing in engagement rings at Lorel Diamonds, says that Saint Mleux’s ring is worth at least 525,000 dollars.

“Alexandra’s engagement ring features a gorgeous oval cut diamond set on a platinum pave band. The diamond looks to be around 5 to 6 carats, with a truly bright appearance that suggests it’s of exceptional quality,” Taylor told the Daily Mail.

“If the diamond is natural and of exceptional quality, I’d estimate the ring to be worth upwards of £400,000 (455.000 euros).”

Leclerc can easily afford such a ring, as his net worth is estimated at 125 million dollars.

Saint Mleux is an influencer with three million followers on Instagram. She has since become a familiar face in the Formula 1 paddock, where she cheers on Charles at almost every Grand Prix. She usually does so with Leo, the couple’s cheerful dachshund.
