The sight of Jessica Simpson's $100,000 ruby-and-diamond Neil Lane engagement ring alone is enough to make you gasp, but the fact that she may have purchased it herself is enough to bring you to tears.
"No way could Eric, who doesn't have a job at the moment, afford to purchase such an expensive ring," a friend of Jessica's tells me. "Yes, he made a little bit of money in the NFL and is from a wealthy family, but unless his parents helped him out, Jessica must have paid for it herself."
Jessica, who unveiled her flashy bling on Nov. 14 at a Kansas City department store, has long made it clear that money is not an issue with her, but even so her friends are concerned about the star's $100 million fortune.
"First, we find out that Jessica doesn't want to have a prenup, and now we find out that she might have paid for her own ring. It just doesn't feel right to me," a family friend tells me. "We all want Jessica to be happy and finally find true love after all she has been through, but she doesn't understand that in the long run if she pays for everything it will hurt her relationship with any man."
Our friends at Stylist reveal that Jess's second engagement ring features an approximately 4-carat, oval-shaped ruby stone flanked by two diamonds from Neal Lane, known for his rare vintage jewels. Its worth is estimated to be at least $100,000.
"What's the big deal? Jessica has more money than she can ever spend," another friend explains. "If she wants to treat her future husband, friends or even herself to an expensive piece of jewelry, it's her business and no one else."
What do you think? It just doesn't feel right to me.

Britain's Prince William and his fiancee Kate Middleton (L) pose for a photograph in St. James's Palace, central London November 16, 2010. Britain's Prince William is to marry his long-term girlfriend Kate Middleton next year, after an on-off courtship lasting nearly a decade, bringing months of speculation about his intentions to an end.
Royal engagement...Westminster Abbey emerged today as the firm favourite to be the venue of Prince William's wedding after being visited by his bride-to-be, Kate Middleton. The 28-year-old paid a brief visit last night to the Abbey, which has hosted the weddings of the Queen and Queen Mother and was where the funeral of William's mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, was held.Prince William and Kate Middleton named the day for their wedding as Friday, April 29, 2011 at Westminster Abbey in central London. The historical building has been the setting for many royal occasions over the years.
Prince William's engagement ring ... Diana's previous ring
No one was more surprised than Kate Middleton when Prince William gave her Princess Diana's oval sapphire engagement ring. Why? Because it was his brother, Prince Harry, who received it after his beloved mother died.
Following their mother's tragic death in 1997, Prince Charles took Harry and William to visit Kensington Palace, Diana's home, where they selected mementos from their mummy's possessions. Prince Harry chose the ring and Prince William chose Diana's 18K yellow gold Cartier Tank Francaise watch that she used to teach him the time.
"Harry was happy to give the ring to his brother," an insider with knowledge of the situation tells me. "He loves William and thinks it's only right that one day the woman sitting next to the King will be wearing his mother's ring. That's the way Diana would have wanted it."
The ring, a sapphire surrounded by 14 rounds of diamonds set in 18k of white gold, cost over $40,000 when Prince Charles purchased it back in 1981. Of course, now because of its association with Diana, the magnificent piece of jewelry is considered priceless.

In a touching tribute to his mother, Prince William has given his fiance Kate Middleton his late mother Princess Diana's oval blue 18-carat sapphire and diamond engagement ring. He presented it to her when they were engaged last month in Kenya and Kate showed off the ring today at a photocall St. James' Palace.
For the event, William wore a trim navy suit while Kate opted for a draped frock which matched the blue of her ring. William said:
It was my way of making sure my mother didn't miss out on today.
