Mario Williams Sues Ex To Get $785,000 Engagement Ring Back

Former Texans star Mario Williams now plays for the Buffalo Bills, but he apparently left a piece of his heart – and a $785,000 engagement ring – in Houston.

Attorneys for Williams filed suit last week in Harris County state district court against Erin Marzouki, who is described in the lawsuit as Williams’ former fiancée. The suit seeks recovery of a 10.04 carat diamond ring from Marzouki in the wake of her decision in January to end her engagement with Williams, according to court documents.

“(Marzouki) never intended to marry (Williams) and used the relationship as a means to get to (Williams’) money and acquire gifts,” said the lawsuit, filed by Houston attorneys Monica Schulz Orlando and Michael Gary Orlando.

The attorneys are asking the court to obtain the ring from Marzouki and to hold it until the legal action is resolved. They were not immediately available for comment today.

GIVE IT BACK.

Sorry to hear this couple broke up. They only got engaged in Feb. Hmmmm...

Well here it is...




In a Dec NY interview with her on Mario's arrival to Buffalo...she mentioned they have THREE homes...
wow, and spending almost a mill on a ring? He sure loves to spend.

I mean...

It was a gift.

I get how he is portraying her a s a gold digger, but he did buy those things for her out of the kindness of his heart. He seems to have enjoyed spending the money, granted it was for reasons to build towards a life together, however he did so under his own pretenses.

The ring however, he probably should walk away from that one as a loss.

 

Disagree, the ring was given in expectation of marriage, she broke that agreement, the ring should be returned.

 

i can dig what you are saying...its sounds like he is an idiot...spending his money like that. I hope his name is on everything and she has her name on nothing otherwise he is fucked.

as far as the ring is concerned he should never ever ever ever ever spend that kind of money on a ring. it would be hell getting it back. he may lose the case

 

WHY? It is a symbol of lifetime commitment, and they did not even get married.

 

I do agree, she should give the ring back. However, when you give things you shouldn't expect them to be returned if things don't work out. That's all im saying.

 

Yup

 

This. An engagement ring is not a "gift"...it needs to be returned.

 

There's legal precedence regarding this very act (im sure you already know. though )

He therefore has legal grounds.

I think however (and it's just my opinion here)... if it involves infidelity on his part, then she gets to keep the ring.
On her part, or if she breaks it off for whatever reason, she should return it.

*Only exception: if he proposes merely to appease her and then spends years putting off the wedding to the point she wants to break it off. Then SHE HAS EARNED every last diamond. :?

 

i agree. he would have to prove alot it seems. idk but it look like he has a large mountainm to climb. then he has to pay for his legal fees to get the rinbg back. wow.

 

I think he's in pretty good shape to get that ring back. Her keeping that ring was dependent upon the two of them getting married. Since she broke off the engagement, she can't keep the ring.

 

Exactly, in most states (but not all) he will have a sound legal argument to have the ring returned to him if she simply changed her mind. Proven nfidelity, deception, or fraud could be argued on her behalf if it ever makes it to court.

 

I always find it funny when a high roller like Mario falls in love with some pussy and wants to marry her, and all she's looking for is a giftbox.

He must be a very inexperienced dude not to pick up early on she wasn't feeling him like a future husband.

ANy woman who was about something would return an ENGAGEMENT ring if there was no marriage in their future.

Honestly, I would've physically removed that ring for her finger and told her to step.

 

Agree with Bliss and Loki, in general, its well known that you give the ring back. If she broke it off, then there is no if's, and or but's about it. You can even look up this in old school etiquet books etc. Give the damn ring back.

There are some cases that Bliss and Loki mentioned when that does not apply. But generally, given the damn ring back.

 

yeah, i always had in mind ...once you give it be prepared not to get it back.

 

You my friend are buggin. When you start going into the 800kway range that shit is not a gift its agreed upon payment forming a contract.

 

Earned how? She has the freedom to leave any time she wants.

 

lol

I get it. The more I think about this, I agree.

He bought the ring with the intent to marry the girl and start a life with her.

But still stand upon my original statement regarding gifts in general; if you give a gift don't expect for them to give it back if things don't work out. In this case however, this ring does not constitute a gift.
