How she found out the truth
Blake had been admiring her engagement ring, unaware of its history. She expressed her love for it, only to be blindsided by her husband’s revelation.
“He told me, ‘Oh yeah, Erica loved it too,’” she recalled. Stunned, she asked, “Erica? The woman you were engaged to for a year?”
Additionally, her husband then admitted that it was the same ring he had previously given to his ex.
The ring was custom-made for his ex-fiancée
The situation worsened when Blake realized the ring wasn’t just a random purchase. Her husband had personally designed it with his ex.
“He didn’t pick it out for me,” she explained. “He and Erica went to the jewelry store and custom-made it together.”
To make matters worse, he had refused to buy Blake the 10-karat ring she wanted, claiming it was “too expensive.”
Then, Blake turned to TikTok for guidance, asking her followers what she should do.
“Should I just ask him to get me a different one?” she questioned. “I don’t know what to do.”
Outrage from viewers on social media
Blake’s video quickly went viral and sparked debate on social media.
Additionally, commenters were appalled by her husband’s actions. Many felt he had disrespected Blake by recycling the engagement ring.
While some encouraged Blake to sell the ring and buy the one she originally wanted. Others went as far as suggesting divorce.
One person said: The fact that he designed it with her but refused to get you the one you wanted? That says everything.
A second wrote: He’d be out in the woods with a metal detector looking for that ring if it were me.
While a third commented: Excuse me… that should have been a problem BEFORE she married him.
Another added: I know someone who took the stones from his first fiancée’s ring and put them into his second fiancée’s ring (he actually married the second). The wife has no idea.
Someone else said: If she accepted the proposal, either she did this for clout or she is delulu.
Blake is now left to decide if she can move past this or if it’s a dealbreaker.
In short, regardless of the outcome, her story serves as a cautionary tale about honesty and respect in relationships.
