33-year-old Ogunlesi is the son of Nigerian billionaire Adebayo Ogunlesi, whose net worth is an estimated $2.3 billion.

As the heir to his father’s fortune, Geoffrey’s financial means make it comfortable for him to afford such a lavish accessory.

Meyer has long been known for her expertise in jewelry design and wore an ivory minidress adorned with crystals at the event.

She went on to accessorize her look with a silver Gucci purse, bangle bracelets, and diamond earrings. Her fiancé also looked sharp as he donned a black suit and matching tie, as per a Daily Mail report.

The couple, who got engaged in September, made their red carpet debut together in November.

Meyer, who is close friends with Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox, took to Instagram to share her excitement and captioned a photo of the two with “YES!!!” along with many heart and star emojis.

Many of Meyer’s followers left their congratulatory messages underneath her post. CEO and Birdies co-founder Bianca Gates wrote: “Wow!!! Huge congratulations!!! And that ring!!! I wouldn’t expect anything less for the jewelry queen!”

“It was allll him! Total surprise”, Meyer responded.

Actress Goldie Hawn, Ben Affleck’s ex-wife Jennifer Garner, and Paris Hilton also congratulated the couple, with actress Olivia Munn calling it “The best manifestation ever.”

Ogunlesi is a former A&R executive at 300 Entertainment and Warner Bros. Music Group, and is now CEO of The Ogunlesi Group in Los Angeles.

His father, Adebayo Ogunlesi is a prominent Nigerian lawyer and investment banker who co-founded Global Infrastructure Partners, which he recently sold to BlackRock for $12.5 billion.

Meyer, the daughter of Ron Meyer, the co-founder of Creative Artists Agency (CAA) and former executive at NBC, met Maguire in 2003 while he was filming Seabiscuit.

Meyer and Maguire married in 2007 and welcomed two children, Ruby, 17, and Otis, 15. After nearly a decade of marriage, they separated in 2016.
