9 Meaningful Pieces From The Princess Of Wales’s Jewellery Collection That Were Once Worn By Diana
Since becoming the Princess of Wales in September, Kate has made sure to pay tribute to her late mother-in-law – particularly when it comes to her jewellery. During the official mourning period following Queen Elizabeth II’s death, the royal wore Diana’s Collingwood pearl earrings, as well as a four-strand pearl choker that had been loaned to the former Princess of Wales for Her Majesty’s funeral.
Since then, Kate has chosen to wear Diana’s diamond and South Sea pearl earrings for a Remembrance Day service in November, as well as debuting a feather brooch that had been worn a number of times by her late mother-in-law when King Charles III hosted his first state visit as monarch. Most recently, the Princess opted for an emerald choker, which Diana memorably wore as a headband during a tour of Australia in 1985, at the Earthshot Prize awards ceremony in Boston.
Even before she took on her new title, Kate has often paid tribute to Diana – most notably, via the sapphire and diamond engagement ring that was famously worn by the former Princess of Wales. Below, see the most meaningful pieces in Kate’s jewellery collection that were once worn by Diana.
