With Royal watchers speculating that Prince William will soon propose to girlfriend Kate Middleton, the next thing everyone wants to know after when it will happen is who will design the engagement ring? The odds-on favorite is Garrard, jeweler by appointment to the Crown (Diana and Fergie’s rings both came from the British institution). What kind of design will Wills choose for his bride-to-be?
