Amal Clooney is ditching her engagement ring from George Clooney!

According to a new report, the human rights lawyer, 37, has opted to no longer wear the $680,000, seven-carat ring her 54-year-old husband gave her prior to their wedding because she feels the ring is too flashy for work.

"Amal has told friends she wants a more understated engagement ring specifically for when she’s working on serious cases," a source revealed. "People constantly stop her and admire it for a closer look. It is a massive rock and there is no hiding it."

“She absolutely loves the ring and won’t be getting rid of it but she just wants something simpler for her big cases," the insider told the UK's Daily Mirror. “She’s been to visit Cartier and has requested a platinum band. George understands and is completely supportive.”
