The last thing anyone expects when they pop the question to the love of their life is to be embroiled in a bitter business dispute.
Yet that’s exactly what’s happened to The Bachelor couple Sam Wood and Snezana Markoski.
Sam proposed to Snezana – who appeared on the third season of the reality dating show in 2015 – with a $50,000, two-carat diamond last December.
Now, the jeweller who sold Sam the sparkler has gone bankrupt, amassing personal and business debts up to $10 million, The Age reports.
Reports initially suggested the stone used to create Snezana’s ring was one of more than a dozen diamonds jeweller Ronnie Bensimon — who has also designed rings for celebrities like Nicole Trunfio, Pia Miller and Whitney Port — had obtained from diamond dealers who he never paid.
