Rory McIlroy’s estranged wife Erica Stoll has ditched her flashy engagement ring, but appears to be keeping her wedding band on.

In the first photos of Stoll, which were obtained by The Post, since McIlroy filed for divorce on Monday, Stoll was seen without the big rock on her ring finger but still with her apparent wedding band as she went out to a Pilates class and Starbucks near the couple’s home in Jupiter, Fla., on Wednesday.

Stoll was seen in a light-colored T-shirt, black pants, sunglasses and flip-flops.

McIlroy ditched his wedding ring at the 2024 PGA Championship this week at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville after he wore it Sunday when he won the Wells Fargo Championship, a day before he filed for divorce.

The couple were married for seven years and have a 3-year-old daughter, Poppy.

The 35-year-old McIlroy has retained the same attorney, Thomas Sasser, who represented Tiger Woods in his 2010 divorce from Elin Nordegren.

Follow the latest on golf star Rory McIlroy’s divorce from Erica Stoll:

McIlroy’s divorce filing said the couple’s marriage was “irretrievably broken” and asked for the enforcement of a prenuptial agreement the two entered into on March 7, 2017, roughly a month before their lavish wedding at Ashford Castle in Ireland.

He began dating Stoll in 2014 after he broke off his engagement with tennis star Caroline Wozniacki earlier that year.

While McIlroy’s camp confirmed the divorce Tuesday, saying he had a “desire to ensure this difficult time is as respectful and amicable as possible,” a PGA official warned reporters Wednesday before his press conference that he would not answer any questions related to the divorce.

Stoll wasn’t at last month’s Masters in Augusta, Ga., after partaking in the 2023 Par 3 contest with the couple’s daughter, and McIlroy did not mention Stoll during an interview Sunday on Mother’s Day in which he paid tribute to his mom, Rosie.
