Mandy Moore might be the newest celebrity face behind the glitzy Fossil watches brand, but in a recent interview with People magazine, she revealed that she doesn’t fuss over jewelry—and didn’t even want an engagement ring from her fiancé! Read on for the latest.
Mandy shocked the world with the announcement that her boyfriend musician, Taylor Goldsmith proposed to her last year. They were together for two years prior to him popping the question.
So of course the first thing everyone wanted to see was the bling her got her for THAT finger. And he didn’t disappoint: it’s a custom Irene Neuwirth ring, featuring a stunning, round flat diamond on a rose gold band.
But as gorgeous as the ring is, the This Is Us star actually revealed that she had first told Taylor not to get her an engagement ring at all. Um, WHAT?!

She recalled to People, “My fiancé kind of ignored me when I told him, ‘Oh it’s fine. I don’t really need anything. We can just get married and have wedding bands. I don’t need an engagement ring.’”
The 34-year-old definitely warmed up to the idea once she laid eyes on the rock, though. She said, “He kindly ignored me and went out and made this gorgeous ring that I just felt was indicative of my style and it’s all very much in mind with who I am and how I try to carry myself in the world. It wasn’t like this ostentatious giant jewelry, it’s something that has a lot of meaning and I love it.”
She even added, “I would say my most meaningful piece of jewelry is my engagement ring. That’s something that I try to wear every day. I don’t wear it to work or anything, obviously, but it’s something I never really thought that I would want.”
