David Otunga To Auction Off Jennifer Hudson’s Engagement Ring

TMZ reports that David Otunga is auctioning off Jennifer Hudson’s engagement ring, which he got back after they broke up in 2017. The pair were never actually married prior to their split.

Otunga is selling the item on IDoNowIDont.com. It is valued at $45,000. Otunga plans to give a portion of the proceeds to a fathers’ rights organization. Otunga and Hudson had a legal battle after their break-up, involving custody over their child, born in 2009. The issue was eventually resolved.

The size seven ring, commissioned by Otunga and designed by Neil Lane, is GIA certified. The 5-carat cushion cut diamond ring was originally given to Hudson in 2008. She wore it during a number of big moments in her career, including winning a Grammy in 2009.
