Lab grown diamonds/gems are also pure as fuck. Who wouldn’t want that?

No I want my impurities and child labor with my diamonds!

Also, diamonds are worth nothing in a pawn store. The only valuable part of your engagement ring is the gold, which is often not the highest quality anyway.

That's why I got her a platinum ring with no stones. Much better pawn value.
