Emily Ratajkowski is redefining elegance with her “divorce rings,” offering iconic advice for dating in your 20s.
Renowned model and podcaster Emily Ratajkowski, often making headlines with her romantic escapades, unveils an update to her wedding ring.
For girls grappling with marrying before 25, questioning social norms, or even ending their first marriage before 28, Emrata has something to say. “It seems like a lot of women are getting divorced before they turn 30,” she remarked in her TikTok video. Ratajkowski divorced her ex-husband Sebastian Bear-McClard in 2022, dedicating her career to empowering women through her podcast “High Low with EmRata.”
In a recent Instagram post, Ratajkowski revisits her thoughts on divorce being “chic” with new rings. How is this iconic? Well, the rings in question are reused wedding bands designed for everyday wear.
According to Ratajkowski, it’s okay to have “tried that fantasy of getting married and realizing maybe it’s not all it’s cracked up to be… being in your 20s is like being in the trenches,” she continued. The beauty of it is that “you still have your whole life ahead of you.” Ironically, where advice for women often attracts hateful cis men, the comments gathered a community of men and women encouraging young women to reject marriage in their 20s as well.
Her advice mirrors the viral dating advice Mia Khalifa shared with a TikTok user. “We shouldn’t be afraid to leave these people,” she said at the time. “We’re not stuck with these people… it’s a commitment you make with someone but if you feel like you’re not getting anything out of that commitment, you should leave… This is your damn life, do you want to be stuck with someone?”
