Jessica Biel Shows Off Engagement Ring, Taylor Swift Out Earns Adele

Jessica Biel’s engagement ring was finally spotted when the ‘Valentine’s Day’ actress was caught flashing the ring while dining with her soon-to-be husband, Justin Timberlake, at the Tavern in Los Angeles on Thursday.

The brunette beauty was dressed down in a turquoise Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent dress with a white power-shoulder, cropped blazer. Though casually cute with bangs and a high ponytail and flats, her gorgeous ring was the real showstopper.

While onlookers at a Saturday Night Live after-party in New York City’s Ristorante Asellina got a glimpse of the magnificent square-cut, diamond-filled bauble with an antique aesthetic last month, pics of the actress flaunting the rock have just made its debut.

Justin reportedly asked the “New Year’s Eve” actress for her hand in marriage in traditional style on bended knee over the holidays in Jackson, Wyoming.

Though the exultant couple, who has been on-and-off again for five years, is tight-lipped about their alleged looming nuptials, everyone else is talking on their behalf.

Most unforgettable, Timberlake’s grandmother Sadie Bomar spilled the beans (perhaps unknowingly) on her grandson’s proposal: “Yes, Justin is engaged. Jessica is a very sweet girl, she’s upright and everything and we love her,” she continued. “She’s a wonderful campaigner for the environment and Justin is too, a fine young man. Jessica will be a lovely member of the family.”

Even Biel’s director Garry Marshall for “New Year’s Eve” had his two cents to add.

“We talk about it a lot. I hope it all works out — they are terrific kids,” Marshall revealed to US. “I love them both. I’m happy for her.”

Because the duo is so private, we wonder what they think about Garry’s slip?

While another “insider” added that the lovebirds are looking to wed “this summer at a private estate”, we wish them the best!
