Jennifer Meyer, the jewelry designer and former wife of actor Tobey Maguire, is set to walk down the aisle again after announcing her engagement to Nigerian billionaire heir Geoffrey Ogunlesi. Meyer, who split from Maguire in 2022, has continued to co-parent their children, Ruby and Otis, while maintaining a supportive and amicable relationship with her ex-husband.
Meyer shared the exciting news of her engagement with Geoffrey Ogunlesi, the son of Nigerian billionaire Adebayo Ogunlesi, through a heartfelt post on social media. The post featured a touching photo of the couple embracing, with Ogunlesi wrapping his arms around Meyer in a tender moment. A large blue box, likely containing Meyer’s dazzling engagement ring, was prominently displayed on the table, symbolizing the couple’s commitment.
The engagement ring, which perfectly complements Meyer’s sophisticated style, features an emerald-shaped diamond flanked by two trapezoid baguette diamonds. For the special occasion, Meyer, 47, looked stunning in a mini black dress, while Ogunlesi showcased his muscular frame in a fitted black sweater and pants. The intimate moment was captured at what appeared to be a dinner party, adorned with bottles of wine and elegant white roses.
Meyer’s engagement announcement quickly took social media by storm, with fans and celebrity friends flooding her post with congratulatory messages. The jewelry designer captioned her post with an enthusiastic “YES!!!,” and the comments soon poured in. One fan exclaimed, “Wow!!! Huge congratulations!!!!! And that ring!!!!??!! I wouldn’t expect anything less for the jewelry queen!” To which Meyer replied, “It was alllll him! Total surprise.”
Her celebrity friends also joined in the celebration. Jennifer Garner commented, “Congratulations!!!,” Kelly Rowland shared her joy with, “So incredibly happy for you!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!,” and Kimora Lee Simmons added, “Yes absolutely!!! Mazel tov! Congrats my baby girllll!!” Olivia Munn also expressed her happiness, writing, “I’m so happy for you!!!!”
While Meyer’s engagement marks a thrilling new chapter, her journey to this point has been filled with challenges. Meyer first met Maguire in 2003 while he was filming Seabiscuit, and they married in 2007. However, their relationship faced difficulties, leading Meyer to file for divorce in 2020.
Despite the end of their marriage, Meyer and Maguire have maintained a strong and supportive relationship, focused on co-parenting their two children. Reflecting on their bond, Meyer shared, “I would literally do anything in the world for Tobey. He is my brother. I love him to death, and we have the most beautiful family.”
Meyer has credited their enduring closeness to their willingness to confront and overcome the emotional challenges of their split, believing that the universe has kept them aligned. As she embarks on this new chapter with Ogunlesi, Meyer continues to demonstrate grace and resilience, prioritizing the well-being of her family and embracing the future with optimism.
