Actress Naomi Watts is sparking some engagement rumors!
On Friday, Watts was photographed flashing a huge diamond sparkler on that finger while walking her dog in New York City.
Naomi has been dating “Gypsy” co-star Billy Crudup since 2017.
Last month, Naomi had people wondering if she was engaged at a West Coast event for her Stripes line.
At the event, Molly Ringwald noticed the diamond ring on Watts’ finger and brought attention to a possible engagement. When asked about her ambitions, Naomi said, “I literally just started this [company], so I can’t think of yet another thing on my plate; my boyfriend would think I was insane!”
Ringwald commented, “Um, fiancé?”
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Laura Brown, LB Media founder and former InStyle Editor in Chief, immediately chimed in, saying, “It’s a secret — women’s code of secrecy. You, sir, you better zip it.”
A few weeks ago, Naomi attended the Tribeca Ball, where she sported a diamond on her left ring finger.

In February, Watts called Crudup “my darling” while celebrating Valentine’s Day.
