Ari Fletcher Speaks On Her New Diamond Ring And Relationship With Moneybagg Yo

From the looks of it, Ari Fletcher had a week full of love. On Valentine’s Day, she shared photos of a room filled with hundreds of red roses and petals, balloons and candles. Days later, Paper Magazine released a love day themed photoshoot featuring Ari and Moneybagg Yo’s romantic Malibu getaway and their love story. Then, on Friday Ari shared a tweet reacting to a new diamond ring.

“A f***ing 22 carat diamond ring for me,” Ari tweeted in question form. “It’s so big I’m scared to wear it. I’m just staring at it in shock.”

The influencer wasn’t specific about how she received the gift. She didn’t name Moneybagg nor did she show us the bling in all its glory. But the ring is giving gifted by the way Ari seemingly questioned the hefty rock being for her.

An Extravagant Valentine’s Day

One thing about it, the couple is known for giving each other extravagant gifts. Apparently, Moneybagg’s Valentine’s Day decor cost him upwards of $50,000 dollars. Event organizer Najee Jalice told The Shade Room her team used over 1,000 roses at $50 a bouquet to fill spaces in the home. Four hundred of those roses were used to cover the bedroom specifically.

We had to hand peel the flowers because my florists didnt have enough petals in the shop that morning,” Najee said. “It took five people from my team and roughly 3 hours to peel over 400 roses to make enough petals to fill the room.

Well, the labor seemed to pay off! She captioned photos of Moneybagg’s surprise “drowning in Euphoria.”

A Love Story’s Origin

The couple shared a private conversation withPaperwhere they spoke on how they met, their favorite gifts and being together forever. Moneybagg said he first saw Ari shopping at the mall, but didn’t make his move due to the crowded surroundings. Instead, he reached out to mutual friends to arrange a meet at an Atlanta party.

In another part of their conversation, Moneybagg asked Ari what’s their favorite thing to do together. She jokingly replied “have sex,” before saying she prefers “doing normal stuff” such as chilling in bed together. Then, they both spoke about a previous trip to St. Thomas.

“It was intimate, there weren’t too many people,” Ari said. “We slept outside in the rain, under the covers. It was romantic. That was probably my favorite trip I’ve been on in my life.”‘

In addition to their words, the article featured gorgeous shots of the couple enjoying the Valentine’s Day decorations.

Together Forever

Moneybagg Yo responded, “I never experienced real love until I actually got with you.”

He continued on saying,” I feel like this is the best, this is the last one.”

Ari asked if their relationship is his last in response. She questioned, “nobody else?” And he confirmed, “nobody.”

On Saturday, she shared a video of a woman doubting her boyfriend’s marriage proposal, thinking it was a prank. Ari let us know she can relate to the girlfriend’s energy saying, “this me. I just wouldn’t believe it.”
