Reality TV star Bethenny Frankel is sporting a new diamond ring, and experts say it may be worth $1 million.

The former star of “The Real Housewives of New York” recently got engaged to Paul Bernon, who is a film producer and real estate developer.

The sparkler appears to be “a three-stone ring that features a huge 8- to 10-carat emerald-shaped center stone set with two smaller emerald accent diamonds,” said Apeksha Kothari of RareCarat.com, according to Page Six. Kothari said the ring could be worth up to $1 million, if the diamonds are natural.

Kathryn Money of Brilliant Earth told Page Six is likely worth “approximately $750,000 to $1,000,000+” depending mainly on the caracteristics of the center stone.

The Daily Mail, citing Kate Earlam-Charnley of Taylor & Hart, has reported that the ring may be worth $3 million.

Frankel and Bernon have been in an on-and-off relationship since 2018. Frankel recently completed her divorce from Jason Hoppy.

When There’s No Succession Plan, Call Wilkerson

Bob Wesley, owner of Robert C. Wesley Jewelers in Scottsdale, Ariz., was a third-generation jeweler. When it was time to enjoy life on the other side of the counter, he weighed his options. His lease was nearing renewal time and with no succession plan, he decided it was time to call Wilkerson. There was plenty of inventory to sell and at first, says Wesley, he thought he might try to manage a sale himself. But he’s glad he didn’t. “There’s no way I could have done this as well as Wilkerson,” he says. Wilkerson took responsibility for the entire event, with every detail — from advertising to accounting — done, dusted and managed by the Wilkerson team. “It’s the complete package,” he says of the Wilkerson method of helping jewelers to easily go on to the next phase of their lives. “There’s no way any retailer can duplicate what they’ve done.”
