Devon Windsor’s Engagement Ring and Wedding Bands
In June 2018, Barbara proposed to Windsor with a 5-carat oval ring from Ring Concierge. The creation, which took over a month to design, features a diamond center stone with a hidden halo set on a band with 171 micropavé set round brilliant diamonds. The style became so popular that the design was later named “Devon” in honor of the model.
According to People, the couple’s wedding bands were also created by the same designer. Windsor chose three different bands to pair with her engagement ring: a petite emerald cut eternity band set in platinum, a thin micropavé band in rose gold and a sideways baguette band in platinum. Each ring is specially designed to sit lower on the finger to compliment the high-set oval diamond.
Barbara selected two wedding bands: a 3mm 18-karat yellow band and 3mm platinum band, allowing him to swap ring colors based on other accessories.
Devon Windsor and Fiancé Johnny Dex Barbara’s Engagement
After dating for over two years, Barbara proposed to Windsor on a private island in the Bahamas. Windsor, who thought she was flying in for a photoshoot, arrived to the location to find her longtime love waiting for her with a ring in hand.
The model previously opened up to The Knot about her fiancé’s elaborate surprise. “He’s very creative and good at planning shoots and such,” she said. “So he planned it in just one week.”
She explained, “He planned this whole thing with my agents. They were lying to me all week saying I had a job in New York and I had to go to NYC instead of Miami [where Dex is based]. Then that job got canceled and I got a job in the Bahamas that they made up. He created a call sheet and they even sent it to me. It was a fake call sheet for a brand I work for all the time.”

By the time Windsor arrived at the island on a private plane, she wasn’t expecting to see her then-boyfriend there with a special message written in the sand. “It said ‘Marry Me,’ and I was freaking out,” Windsor recalled. “Then the pilot flew so low and so slow that I could make eye contact with Johnny and it was insane. When he landed, Johnny proposed, and the whole thing was filmed.”
She concluded: “It was amazing.”
