The INSIDER Summary:

  • Model Adriana Lima Instagrammed herself wearing a wedding ring. 
  • She explained that she is single and that she wears it to show a commitment to herself. 
  • She encouraged all women to love themselves. 


If you like it then you should put a ring on it. At least that's Adriana Lima's personal motto. 

The Victoria's Secret supermodel took to Instagram Monday to explain why she's rocking a diamond ring on her left ring finger if she's not currently married or engaged. She told fans it's symbolic to the love that she has for herself and encouraged fans to commit to their own happiness. 

"What's up with the ring? It's symbolic," Lima captioned her selfie. "I am committed to myself and my own happiness. I am married with me. Ladies, love yourself."

She also added," Yes, I am single."

The 35-year-old model was previously engaged to singer Lenny Kravitz and married to former basketball player Marko Jaric before rocking her own bling. 

We'll totally take Lima's message to heart, but maybe in some cheaper ways.
