‘Mad Men’ alum Christina Hendricks is officially off the market, as she & her now-fiancé, George Bianchini, announced their engagement via Instagram on Mar. 10.

UPDATE 3/13/23 6:26 PM EST: The newly engaged couple took to Instagram on Mar. 12 to debut Christina’s stunning engagement ring as she co-hosted an Oscars after-party. “Proud to be co-hosting the @ejafoscars viewing party to help raise awareness and support this wonderful organization to end AIDS for good.

According to president of Platinum Guild International USA,  Jenny Luker, “Christina’s ring appears to be a vintage-inspired design or even an actual platinum ring from the early 1900’s. It seems to feature a round center diamond, surrounded by pave stones with a delicate etched scrolling throughout the band. Because platinum doesn’t lose any metal when scratched unlike gold, it will continue to last for generations as may have been the case with this ring! I would estimate this ring costs between $40,000 – $80,000 depending on the ring’s origin.”
