Met Gala 2024 Best Dressed: Billionaire Wears 200 Carats Of Diamonds, Two Rings Worth $20 Million
Met Gala 2024 was all about the glitz and the glamor as the biggest stars graced the red carpet of the high-profile charity event on Monday. However, one star seemingly stood out.
Forget borrowed jewelery, Indian billionaire Sudha Reddy reportedly wore her own diamonds as she walked the cream-colored carpet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. We're talking about over 200 carats of jewels on her neck.
According to Page Six, Reddy wore her "Amore Eterno" -- a 180-carat diamond necklace with a 25-carat heart-shaped diamond in the center and three more 20-carat heart-shaped diamonds which reportedly represent her husband and two kids.

Over the weekend, she also took a trip down Met Gala memory lane, sharing a photo of her with Anna Wintour, Vogue's editor-in-chief and co-chair of the fashion event.
"Taking a trip down the sweetest, most fashionable memory lane, when I met Anna Wintour, whom I hold as a constant inspiration, an indomitable force in the world of fashion," he captioned her post.
"To moments that leave an everlasting impact, here's to fashion and the changemakers in fashion."
