Government bans U.S. singer Kelly Clarkson from taking £150,000 gold ring once owned by Jane Austen out of Britain. (Daily Mail)
The singer bought the jewellery at auction last year
Culture minister Ed Vaizey has put a temporary export bar on the piece
The ring is one of only three surviving pieces of jewellery known to have belonged to the Pride and Prejudice author
Interesting reader comments as well, plus pictures, at the link.
