"The New York Giants were playing last night, so I had to DVR Lifetime&amp;#x27;s Liz &amp;amp; Dick (starring Lindsay Lohan!) while Rory watched Big Blue destroy the Packers. Boo. So I haven&amp;#x27;t seen small screen &amp;quot;Elizabeth Taylor&amp;quot; yet, but I decided it would be fun to round up the engagement rings of real-life Dame Elizabeth Taylor. Brace yourselves for a LOT of bling! Husband No. 1: Conrad &amp;quot;Nicky&amp;quot; Hilton Paris Hilton&amp;amp;#8217;s great-uncle proposed with a 4-carat diamond in a platinum band that was reportedly worth $10,000. The pair were married on May 6, 1950 and divorced the following January. Husband No. 2: Michael Wilding This was the second marriage for both Liz and British actor Michael Wilding. Her second engagement ring featured a hefty cabochon sapphire; rumors swirled about whether Michael had purchased the ring, with some sources saying Liz bought it for herself. Husband No. 3: Michael Todd Michael Todd presented Liz with a 29.4 carat diamond. (That&amp;#x27;s 13 carats bigger than Kim Kardashian&amp;#x27;s 16.5 carat center stone, to put the super-size sparkler in perspective!) The pair had two weddings: an all-Spanish civil ceremony in Spain followed by a second ceremony in Mexico. Husband No. 4: Eddie Fisher Liz had already amassed quite the collection of rings, so her fourth fiance presented her with an engagement bracelet, which featured 50 diamonds. Husband No. 5: Richard Burton, take 1 Richard Burton skipped the engagement ring, too, instead offering Liz an emerald and diamond necklace. The biggest emerald could be detached and worn as a brooch, see here: Five years into their first marriage, Richard would gift Liz the 33.19 carat Krupp Diamond, which is now known as the Elizabeth Taylor Diamond. Though she often wore the bauble on THAT finger, it wasn&amp;#x27;t technically an engagement ring. Husband No. 6: Richard Burton, take 2 For their second wedding, Richard presented his bride with the Grand Duchess of Russia&amp;#x27;s emeralds, a collection that included earrings, a necklace, and a bracelet (above). Husband No. 7: John Warner With six failed marriages behind her, Liz took her seventh walk down the aisle in December of 1976, this time with Republican politician John Warner. Details on the engagement ring are unclear, with some sources saying the ring featured a diamond while others say was included rubies, diamonds, and emeralds. (I don&amp;#x27;t know if the ring above was her engagement ring, but that looks like a plain diamond to me.) Husband No. 8: Larry Fortensky I also couldn&amp;#x27;t find info on Liz&amp;#x27;s ring from her last husband, construction worker Larry Fortensky, whom she married at Michael Jackson&amp;amp;#8217;s Neverland in October of 1991 and divorced just over five years later. Thoughts on Elizabeth Taylor&amp;#x27;s engagement rings? Would you want any for yourself? I wish the photos weren&amp;#x27;t mostly in black and white! I&amp;#x27;d LOVE to see these bad boys in color! Photo 1: Courtesy of Lifetime. Photos 2-10: Getty Images. Photo 11: Courtesy of People."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
