Arenas couldn’t part ways with the $400K diamond ring.
Arenas had the real engagement ring, which he paid approximately $395,000 for, switched with a $10,000 imitation. This occurred after the couple broke up shortly after Arenas had proposed around Govan’s birthday.
He hatched a plan to get the expensive item back by purchasing a fake ring, rekindling their relationship and switching the rings when the opportunity presented. Govan did not notice the swap and only realized she had a fake when Arenas posted a photo of the original on social media years later, which led to a lawsuit.
Arenas maintained that the money saved from the expensive ring allowed him to cover legal costs over multiple court proceedings with Govan.
