A woman claims her younger sister was left fuming after she revealed the true cost of her "expensive" engagement ring, with the revelation ultimately leading to the wedding being called off altogether. According to this 26-year-old woman, her younger sister Lydia, 22, got engaged to now ex-fiancé Seth, 24, around one month ago, and the pair wouldn't stop "bragging about how expensive" the engagement ring was.
Seth, who is said to come from an affluent family who can afford a "lavish lifestyle", boasted that the ring had set him back £46,000 ($50,000). However, his story quickly unravelled after he asked the woman's jeweller wife, Katie, to have the ring cleaned and polished as a favour.
Katie, who has worked as a jeweller for a long time, quickly realised the ring was made of cheap materials and wouldn't be worth more than £28 ($30). After some deliberation, the couple decided it would be best if they let Lydia know the truth.
