Golnesa Gharachedaghi walked away from her marriage with a stunning — and very expensive — asset.
On Day 1 of BravoCon 2025, The Valley: Persian Style cast member briefly addressed her former marriage and the jaw-dropping sparkler that came with it.
“Your engagement ring, that was the biggest Super Bowl ring I have ever seen in my life,” panel host Jerry O’Connell said. “What happened to it?”
Golnesa reminded the audience that she actually received multiple engagement rings from different men, which is why she wanted Jerry to specify the question.
“The first or the second [engagement ring]?” she asked.
“The really big one,” Jerry replied.
Golnesa Gharachedaghi says she kept the ring from her first marriage
“Oh, I still have it,” the Shahs of Sunset alum confirmed. “I went through two years of divorce for seven weeks of marriage to keep that ring.”

Although she didn’t mention any names, it was clear Golnesa was referring to the ring she received from Shalom Yeroushalmi, the West Coast businessman who proposed to her in late 2016. The ex-couple officially tied the knot in the following month and called it quits about two months later. However, it took them until December 2018 to finalize their divorce.

Fans got a look at Golnesa’s engagement ring in Shahs of Sunset Season 7, Episode 6, which was filmed as she navigated her lengthy divorce process. At one point during the legal battle, Golnesa decided to visit a diamond appraiser to find out if the Shalom-gifted engagement ring was as valuable as it looked.
“I just hope that it’s not just another cubic zirconia, just as fake as he is,” she said in a confessional.

The scene then cut to the diamond expert’s final assessment: “It’s gonna be about $165,000… Well, don’t give it back, that’s what I say.”
Golnesa was in complete disbelief and made it quite clear she was holding onto the engagement ring.
“I want to wear the ring,” she continued. “It’s mine. I’m keeping it. I like the respect. I guess that’s why the queen says, ‘Kiss the ring.’ Or is that the Pope? Maybe it’s both of them.”
Golnesa Gharachedaghi offers an update on her dating life
Years before marrying Shalom, Golnesa was briefly engaged to Omid Kalantari. In November 2024, the mother of one exchanged “I do’s” with Dennis DeSantis, but their marriage was annulled several weeks later.
While speaking on the Battle of the Sexes BravoCon panel, Golnesa confirmed she was still single but was possibly ready to mingle. When asked to dish on her dating life, the Los Angeles native said it was “non-existent,” as she’s been pretty busy being a single mom. In April of 2020, Golnesa gave birth to her son, Elijah Javad Gharachedaghi, whom she conceived through donor insemination.
“Now he’s 5 and a half,” she said about her boy, “so I’m ready to get back on that boat again.”
Before the panel concluded, Summer House’s West Wilson gave Golensa his phone so she could enter her digits. However, he later expressed suspicion that she had given him a “fake” number. Find out what West had to say about the incident.
