Prince William is reportedly concerned about the whereabouts of jewelry that once belonged to his late mother, Princess Diana, and which was gifted to Meghan Markle. According sourcesWilliam has expressed concern about Meghan’s engagement ring, which features diamonds from Diana’s personal collection.
In 2017, Prince Harry proposed to Meghan with a custom-made engagement ring that included two diamonds from his mother’s collection, set together with a Botswana stone in a simple gold band. However, less than two years later, the ring was redesigned and the band was replaced with a thinner version. Meghan debuted the updated ring at the Trooping the Color ceremony in 2019, along with another ring.
This year, Meghan has been seen without her engagement ring at multiple public events, including a gala in May. It was later reported that the ring was “being repaired.” However, more recently, Meghan was seen again without the ring while attending the Invictus Games with Prince Harry in September.
According the mirror, Prince William, 41, is reportedly worried about the missing jewels, especially given the strained relationship between the royal family and the couple. The source claimed Meghan’s engagement ring appears to have “gone missing” and questioned why she wouldn’t proudly wear it at such a high-profile event in Germany, sparking concerns within the palace.
The source also explained that the situation has “set off alarm bells in the Palace.” William reportedly reached out to mutual contacts, seeking clarity about the status of Diana’s ring and other pieces of jewelry.
Given William’s strong connection to his mother’s legacy, the source noted that Diana’s jewelry has deep sentimental value for him. “Not knowing where they are is worrying for William,” the source said. “He has always been protective of his mother’s memory, and her jewelry is an important part of that.”
The source emphasized the emotional meaning these pieces have for William, adding, “The memories he has of her wearing each piece will never fade.” As tensions between the two brothers continue, this concern over Princess Diana’s jewelry appears to add another layer of complexity to their relationship.
