Jane Seymour, 75, Confirms Major Personal News During Interview, Sparking Curiosity Over Stunning Ring – Photos

The actress looked every inch the red-carpet star at a recent gala, but her sparkling outfit was not the only thing getting attention. By the end of the night, one small detail had turned into a much bigger story, and the close-up photos make it easy to see why.

Jane Seymour attended the Songwriters Hall of Fame 55th Annual Induction and Awards Gala in New York City on June 11, 2026, wearing a sleek black look that shimmered under the lights.

At first glance, the moment seemed to be all about glamour: Seymour smiled for photographers, posed confidently, and appeared relaxed as she moved along the carpet. Her outfit was a fitted black, sleeveless ensemble with subtle sparkle throughout, giving her a polished but playful look for the music-filled evening.

A Red Carpet Question About a 'New Accessory' Changed the Mood Instantly

But the real intrigue was not immediately visible in initial close-up images from the event. That changed when Seymour participated in a red carpet interview with Entertainment Tonight, where the interviewer noticed a "new accessory" and asked if there was "something we can celebrate."

Seymour did not dodge the question. "Yes, well he's down there hiding somewhere," she said, immediately sending the conversation in a romantic direction. The actress then revealed that the man in question had a deep connection to the music world.

"He's been a singer-songwriter since he was 13 with Walter Egan," Seymour explained, adding that he had been involved with "Magnets of Steel" and "Hot Summer Nights."

She said they thought the event would be "a really fun thing to be out together." Then came the line that made the moment that seemingly confirmed that the pair had gotten engaged:

“We’re not quite sure what we call it, entwined we’ve decided. We’re just going to be together forever.”

That phrase — "together forever" — gave the evening its biggest emotional twist. When asked how exciting the new chapter is, Seymour replied, "Very exciting." She shared that they had been together for three years and joked that her home had changed quite a bit since music entered the picture.

"The first thing that happened is I had a piano and I had guitars, but not enough apparently," she said. According to Seymour, her house is now "full of musical instruments and bands who are recording," with music being written every day. She also shared one especially sweet detail: "I've become John's muse."

Seymour said he had put out four albums and explained that sometimes she only has to say something before inspiration strikes.

"I can just say something, and he'll go, 'stop, don't talk, don't talk,'" she recalled. "And then the next thing I know he's written something." That, she said, was a part of why the evening mattered to her. "I'm celebrating the songwriters in my life as well," Seymour said. Then the interview turned back to the ring.

An Up-Close and Personal Focus on the Ring and Its Beautiful Meaning

The interviewer asked for "a moment for the ring," calling it gorgeous, and Seymour shared the story behind it. "Actually, he found it, I think, in a vintage stall somewhere and loved it," she said. She then opened up about their pasts, saying he had been "very happily married for 43 years until his wife passed," while she had been "through some divorces" and had "given up on love."

What moves her about the ring, Seymour explained, is that it is not a single stone. "It's not a solitaire, we're not alone," she said. "It's the two of us, we're equal, we're alongside one another."

She also described the ring as representing their earlier lives before they found each other. "This was his life before and mine before," she said. Seymour later discovered, when she had it sized, that the design had a name. "It's a Toi et Moi ring," she shared.

She further revealed that the style was apparently originally presented by Napoleon to Josephine, though she quickly clarified that hers was not that exact historic piece. "Not this particular one; this is Victorian, I think," she added.

The actress even laughed at herself over the discovery, saying, "Who knew? I'm in the jewellery business, but it never occurred to me." That little confession made the reveal feel both glamorous and surprisingly down-to-earth.

The stunning ring itself appears to feature multiple sparkling stones arranged in two flower-shaped romantic clusters rather than a single traditional diamond. And with Seymour's explanation, the piece suddenly becomes more than a beautiful accessory — it becomes a symbol of two people bringing their lives and pasts together.

The Ring Had Already Fueled Engagement Buzz Days Before the Gala

The ring had already sparked curiosity days earlier. According to InStyle, Seymour attended the 33rd Annual Race To Erase MS Gala in Century City, California, on June 5, where she appeared with her believed-to-be fiancé and wore the diamond ring on that finger.

For that event, Seymour wore a sequin-covered black dress with spaghetti straps, a bustier-style design, a column silhouette, and a floor-sweeping skirt. She completed the look with a feather-trim scarf, pointed-toe heels, a diamond tennis necklace, dangling earrings, and the dual-stone diamond ring on her left ring finger.

Her beloved, meanwhile, appeared beside her in a classic black tuxedo, white button-down shirt, and shiny dress shoes. The couple reportedly looked very loved-up, holding hands, wrapping their arms around each other, kissing, and exchanging affectionate looks.

In a joint interview with InStyle on June 9, Seymour responded to the engagement then-rumors with careful but glowing words. "All I can say right now is that we are very happy together," she said. "We've been together almost three years. And if or when there is a reason to announce, it will happen."

She continued, "But right now, we are really, really happy where we are." Then she added the line that says plenty without saying too much: "I just wish that anyone could be as lucky as I am." Seymour also joked about the lighthearted side of their relationship.

"We are giggly teenagers," she said. "That part's true. That's the embarrassment part." Her beloved joined in with his own playful line, quipping, "We're teenagers at our parent's [sic] house, but our parents never come home."

Seymour gave similarly warm comments to The Daily Mail, saying she is "very much in love and thrilled with it all." The actress also reflected on how unexpected the romance felt after her past marriages. "I am in a committed, healthy, loving relationship and I feel blessed," she swooned.

The star was previously married to Michael Attenborough, Geoffrey Planer, David Flynn, and James Keach. She shares daughter Katherine and son Sean with Flynn, and sons John Stacy and Kristopher Steven with Keach.

The Man Behind Seymour's Radiant New Chapter and How Their Love Story Started

As for the man who now has her smiling like this, People reported that Seymour has been dating Musician and Emergency Room Physician John Zambetti since 2023.

Their story reportedly began with a blind date arranged by mutual friends and their children after it emerged that their sons knew each other. Their first date took place at a Shwayze concert in Malibu in August 2023.

Now, nearly three years later, Seymour is speaking openly about love, music, and the ring that seems to have captured the whole mood of this new chapter. The early red carpet photos show the elegance; the interview excerpts show the emotion, but the close-up images of the ring? Those are where the story really sparkles.
