What's the best way to distract skeptics?

Blind them with bling!

That seems to be Courtney Robertson's strategy when she stepped out in Marina del Rey, Calif., yesterday and showed off her hunk o' rock from Ben Flajnik, following Monday night's controversial The Bachelor season finale.

Canny timing for the big reveal, Courtney!

But will it curry public favor for the twosome, who've become one of the most polarizing couples in the show's history?

In the pic, a beaming Robertson can be seen striding through a park wearing a plaid button-down and sipping an iced drink as she holds up her ring finger for all the world to see.

On the show, Robertson was cast as a manipulative love-to-hate-her villain, accused of scoring extra face time with Flajnik by flouting all sorts of unspoken rules among the women.

The couple didn't win over fans when it was revealed that the two had broken up after shooting the finale and Flajnik was seemingly photographed kissing another girl.

Whatevs. They insist they're back together now, so hopefully her new sparkler with help smooth the couple's rocky road to happiness.
