Brazen thieves have stolen actress Lily Collins’ diamond engagement ring, wedding band and other precious items in a hotel theft totaling over “$10,000,” according to a report.
Over the weekend, Collins headed down to the hotel spa in West Hollywood, Calif., and upon her return discovered that her belongings were swiped from her, according to TMZ.
Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department officials have launched an investigation into the theft, telling the outlet that there was no sign of forced entry where the items were taken from.
Cops are reviewing the hotel’s security footage for information leading to the bandits’ arrest.
Collins, 34, tied the knot with director Charlie McDowell in September 2021 in a stunning fairytale wedding in Dutton Hot Springs, Colorado.
The “Emily in Paris” star dated McDowell for over a year before the pair became engaged in September 2020.
The ring McDowell had given Collins when he popped the all-important question is one-of-a-kind and was designed by him and jeweler Irene Neuwirth.
The sparkler features a rose-cut diamond surrounded by a gold band that lets you see through the diamond.
“Thank you for making the most beautiful ring I’ve ever seen,” McDowell, 37, wrote to Neuwirth on Instagram, while his bride-to-be added, “Thank you from the bottom of my heart SO much for the most stunning, perfect ring. It’s breathtaking.”
After accepting McDowell’s proposal, Collins shared the happy news on Instagram — and even gave fans a close-up look at the special sparkler.
“I’ve been waiting my lifetime for you and I can’t wait to spend our lifetime together…” she captioned the in September 2020 post.
Shannon Delaney-Ron, director of communications for JamesAllen, previously told Pvnew Style that she estimates the ring’s center stone at between 2 and 3 carats set in a yellow gold textured bezel setting.
A similar Irene Neuwirth opal ring with a likeminded bezel setting retails for $9,230.
Pvnew has reached out to the LA County Sheriff’s Department and reps for Collins for comment.
Collins is the daughter of British music icon Phil Collins while McDowell who is a director is the son of Malcolm McDowell and Mary Steenburgen.
