The Diamond Pro launches the first artificial intelligence diamond buying tool to let consumers ‘see’ true diamond quality online before making a purchase. Read the official announcement, or, access the media kit.

“Rebel Wilson’s engagement ring for Ramona Agruma looks to be a classic Tiffany & Co. setting with six prongs surrounding a round-cut diamond. The huge diamond looks to be 3 carats and I’d estimate the value at $100,000,” explained Mike Fried, CEO of The Diamond Pro.
Mike Fried, CEO of The Diamond Pro, cast his expert eye over Bosworth’s bauble and gave Nicki Swift an estimated price. OK, brace yourselves. “There’s no doubt it took countless hours of searching for Kate’s enormous 10-carat diamond,” Fried exclusively told Nicki Swift. “High-quality diamonds of this carat weight are very rare and take a special eye to find a beautiful stone. Set on a thin band, her diamond can receive maximum light, making it a brilliant centerpiece. I’d estimate the value at half a million dollars, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it is worth more.”
While Vanessa held back on the details, Mike Fried, CEO of The Diamond Pro, gave us the scoop about the bling. “Vanessa’s oval cut diamond looks to be about 7 carats and I’d estimate the value to be an impressive quarter of a million dollars,” Mike told Distractify. “Her enormous diamond is set on a thin yellow gold band and helps accentuate the size of the stone.”
Nicki Swift spoke with Mike Fried, CEO of The Diamond Pro. Fried explained the value and significance of her ring. “Hailie Jade’s huge diamond appears to be an oval cut that is at least 4 carats,” Fried began. “I’d estimate the value at a whopping $100,000. Her diamond is set on a thin yellow gold band, accentuating the size and beauty of her diamond. The most alluring aspect of her ring is its effortless, timeless design.”
Mike Fried, CEO of The Diamond Pro, agrees that the “striking and unique” center stone “looks to be at least 8 to 10 carats,” estimating the ring’s value at around $400,000. “The careful attention to detail and unique elements represent the bond and future this couple has together,” Fried tells Page Six Style.
According to Mike Fried, CEO of The Diamond Pro, “Lamon Archey chose an incredibly unique diamond shape for his fiancee’s ring: a marquise cut. Marquise cut diamonds bring a royal feel to any ring, thanks to their elongated design and pointed ends. In this ring, a halo of smaller diamonds surrounds her marquise, accentuating the center stone.” It seems Archey spared no expense on the ring, either. Fried says, “I’d estimate her diamond is 3 or 4 carats and worth $100,000.”
As Mike Fried, CEO of The Diamond Pro, told Nicki Swift in an exclusive interview, Breslin’s set of engagement and wedding rings has a “quintessential design” with “subtle details” lending them originality. “Her center diamond is supported by six prongs,” Fried said of Breslin’s engagement ring, which he noted made it “look like a star or snowflake.” Meanwhile, the ring’s pavé band’s larger diamonds contrasts with her wedding band’s sleeker sparkling gemstones, which “play off each other to create an eye-catching pair, without being overly matchy-matchy,” per Fried. The diamond industry veteran estimated Breslin’s center diamond to be about three carats and worth $100,000. As for her eternity wedding band, Fried placed its price tag around $15,000. “Together, the rings offer brilliance and beauty in the most classic way,” he said.
For context, a 1-carat diamond can cost anything between “$1,800 and $12,000,” according to The Diamond Pro.
Mike Fried, CEO of The Diamond Pro, tells Page Six Style the “truly extraordinary” sparkler could be worth a quarter of a million dollars. “Cher’s ring is as spectacular as any shoe on the Vegas strip,” the gem pro quips, adding that the “massive” pear-shaped center stone “looks to be north of 6 carats” “Pear-shaped diamonds of this carat weight are incredibly rare, especially high-quality ones,” Fried says. “The band looks to be custom too, with a tapered design flanking the diamond. This ring took careful planning, design and craftsmanship. It’s as captivating as it is timeless.”
