Ashlee Simpson Averts Disaster in a Horse Race, Almost Breaks Down In Tears Before Husband Saves The Day
While attending an afterparty for the Pegasus World Cup at Gulfstream Raceway in Hollywood, Fla., Ashlee Simpson almost figured into a heartbreaking ttragedy when her five-carat wedding ring slid off her finger. Good thing, her husband was to the rescue.
They were reportedly out and about at Carousel Club, which is located right next to the racetrack and is home to DJ Cassidy, who was doing his viral "Pass the Mic" act live.
With Nicole Scherzinger and DJ D-Nice in the VIP section, Ashlee started chanting "My ring! My ring!" A spy exclaims, "It just flew off!" It seemed like she was on the verge of tears. Her pals grabbed Evan's iPhone torch and began scanning the area."
Apparently Ross went so far as "lifting up the couches and chairs, examining underneath."
Featuring 140 white diamonds and rubies, the platinum and gold ring is believed to be valued over $500,000 and has a vintage flair.
Fortunately, Neil Lane's one-of-a-kind work of art was able to surface.
Having spent nearly an hour searching, Evan finally came upon the ring in the soil, according to the insider. "He swung around and went down on one knee in front of Ashlee as if proposing" as soon as he picked it up.
