Jennie Garth Steps Out Without Wedding Ring

Peter Facinelli's estranged wife surfaces in wake of separation announcement with considerable less bling on her finger

As goes the ring, so goes the marriage. And, as it happens, the ring is gone.

For the first time since jointly announcing her separation from hubby of 11 years Peter Facinelli last week, Jennie Garth has stepped out in public, grabbing lunch in Beverly Hills.

And from the looks of things, it's not just her shoulders that've had a weight lifted: Her finger is also considerably lighter these days, as the erstwhile Beverly Hills, 90210 star was pictured without her wedding ring.

That makes two of 'em. Facinelli too wasted no time in ditching his band, when paparazzi caught him without his ring last week not long after the couple shot down "hurtful" rumors that infidelity led to their split.
