Holly Madison Displays Pink and Yellow Diamond Engagement Ring

July 24th, 2013 by Noam Flint

Former “Girls Next Door” star Holly Madison seems to have a taste for the finer things in life, and was even once linked to millionaire Hugh Hefner. While Madison and Hefner ultimately parted ways, she has found love again with music festival promoter and CEO of Insomniac, Pasquale Rotella. The couple welcomed their first child in early March and got engaged in late June.

Given their child’s nontraditional moniker, Rainbow Aurora, it might come as little surprise that Rotella gave Madison a unique and impressive 18-carat yellow diamond ring. According to People magazine, Rotella presented Madison with a stunning cushion-cut yellow diamond, but the sparkle doesn’t end there.

The gorgeous yellow center stone is surrounded by pink and yellow diamond flowers on either side and boasts an engraved owl to signify their love. Not only did Rotella pick up the hefty price tag for the giant engagement ring, but he also had a hand in creating the custom jewelry.

My fiancé [Pasquale Rotella] designed it himself, because I told him that’s what would make it most special

Madison told the magazine.

Even though the center diamond is massive, the delicate flowers on the side, as well as the vintage setting, help keep the style classic and chic – with a modern twist – a contradiction that is often played with when it comes to yellow diamond engagement rings

Yellow is certainly the color leading ladies long for these days. Along with Madison, major starlets like Kelly Clarkson, Heidi Klum, Carrie Underwood, Rebecca Romijn, Adele and Paris Hilton have all been given yellow diamonds, Fox New reports. While most of these celebrities still wear their stunning stones, Hilton and Klum have likely taken theirs off following their break-ups.
