Meghan Markle 'wore £150k of Princess Diana's jewellery' in hike tribute
Meghan Markle was reportedly wearing £150k worth of Princess Diana 's jewellery on her recent hike.
The Duchess of Sussex, who was pictured on her hike with close friends just after the Coronation, wore slouchy and low-key hiking gear which she accessorised with a stack of expensive jewellery. Some of the collection she wore is said to have belonged to her late mother-in-law.
Meghan wore Princess Diana's Cartier Tank Francaise watch, according to fine jewellery and engagement ring experts at Steven Stone. Diana originally began wearing the watch as a replacement for the gold Patek Philippe that Prince Charles had bought her for her 20th birthday.
She stopped wearing the Patek Philippe as her marriage began to unravel and began wearing the Cartier, which was gifted to her from her father, Earl Edward John Spencer on her 21st birthday.
