It can be weeks, sometimes months before the media captures the flashing sparkle of a diamond or the glint of gold on the ring finger of a new celebrity bride-to-be. And if you think it's hard to catch a glimpse of the ring, learning just how he proposed is harder still. As newly-engaged supermodel Behati Prinsloo told What's the Buzz?, "That's the only part of him that I have that nobody else has" {cited}. Thankfully, as time goes by these beautiful, excited women usually choose a special moment to slide their hand out from beneath their sleeves or from behind their folded coats. And with a flash and a post, we get to see just what style of engagement ring of our favorite star has chosen. Soon after, buoyed by the celebratory good wishes from adoring fans on Facebook and Twitter, these excited brides-in-waiting often let slip a detail here, a detail there about the big day when he placed that ring on her finger. That day has yet to come for Behati Prinsloo, whose fiance Adam Levine placed a 1930s vintage diamond ring with a large Euro cut diamond on her finger last summer. There is, however, at least one newly-engaged celebrity who has opened up about her big moment. Gabrielle Union shared how her fiance, Miami Heat player Dwayne Wade, with his sons Zaire and Zion, planned a surprise for her at the construction site of their new home. Apparently, it was fairly routine for the two young boys to pester Gabrielle about when she was going to marry them. So, when the boys hollered out to her, holding a sign which read Will you marry us?, she quickly turned to Dwayne, hoping to commiserate with him over their childishness. Imagine her astonishment to find him kneeling before her on a yoga block. The kids came running as soon as she said, "Of course!" {cited} Ms. Union proudly wears her 8.5-carat cushion-cut diamond and platinum engagement ring.
