There were so many stop-and-stare style moments from the A-list lineup of stars at Sunday’s BAFTAs Awards (including Lady Gaga’s curve-hugging gown), but one of Zawe Ashton’s accessories from the night still has everyone talking.
On Thursday, it was confirmed by multiple outlets that the Fresh Meat actress and Loki actor Tom Hiddleston were engaged, three years after starring alongside one another in Betrayal on Broadway in 2019 — and Ashton actually gave fans a view of her sparkling engagement ring on Sunday night.
While Ashton’s caped pink Emilia Wickstead gown worn to the BAFTAs hid the ring from view at times, the sparkler could still be spotted as she moved down the carpet alongside her new fiancé.
After all, a ring this good could hardly be missed. The stunner features a large circular diamond surrounded by a halo of pavé diamonds, set on a gold band. She balanced the bling on her finger with 18-carat Cartier High Jewelry diamond earrings, for an extra touch of sparkle.
Ever since the duo starred on Broadway together, they’ve kept things quiet when it comes to talking publicly about their personal lives. Hiddleston opened up about why he likes to keep his work and personal lives separate telling The Telegraph in 2017 that “everyone is entitled to a private life.”
We may not be hearing how the engagement went down anytime soon, but there may be more red carpet couple moments in store, as Ashton joins Hiddleston (who plays Loki) in the Marvel Universe, with her upcoming film, The Marvels, in 2023.
