French Montana has taken his engagement to royal heights. According to Page Six, the rapper proposed to Dubai’s Princess Sheikha Mahra with a custom diamond ring worth an estimated $1.1 million.
The sparkler, designed by Eric the Jeweler of Mavani & Co, features an 11.53-carat emerald-cut center stone that the jeweler described as “nearly flawless in both color and clarity.” In a press release, the design was praised as “a perfect symbol of the couple’s unique love story.”
The 31-year-old princess debuted the ring on Instagram, confirming her engagement to French Montana, 40, with a post captioned with a white heart and sparkle emojis. Fans quickly filled the comments with congratulatory messages like, “Your ring is so beautiful 💍” and “Congratulations French! ”
The couple’s proposal reportedly took place in June during Paris Fashion Week, with their families “excited and supportive” as wedding plans begin.
For Montana, whose real name is Karim Kharbouch, the million-dollar engagement ring underscores the fortune he’s built in music and beyond. With an estimated net worth of $50 million, the Moroccan-American star made his breakthrough with the global hit “Unforgettable” and has sustained his career through collaborations with Drake, Nicki Minaj, and Post Malone. He’s also invested in fashion, liquor, and real estate, giving him diverse revenue streams to support a lavish lifestyle.

Sheikha Mahra, the daughter of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, belongs to one of the wealthiest royal families in the world, with assets stretching into the billions. She was previously married to Sheikh Mana bin Mohammed bin Rashid bin Mana Al Maktoum, with whom she shares a one-year-old daughter.
This marks the second high-profile relationship for Montana. He was famously linked to Khloé Kardashian in 2014, though their romance lasted less than a year. Kardashian has since grown her own wealth to over $60 million through her role on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, her Good American clothing brand, and numerous endorsement deals.
Compared to Khloé, Sheikha Mahra represents not only a leap in status but also an alliance with one of the most financially powerful families in the Middle East.
With Montana’s multimillion-dollar fortune and Sheikha Mahra’s royal wealth, their marriage will unite two worlds of fame and finance. But for now, all eyes are on the $1.1 million ring, a piece of jewelry that cements their engagement and captures the extravagance of their relationship.
