Although Princess Diana’s untimely death was long before Kate Middleton ever met Prince William, Kate has frequently paid tribute to her late mother-in-law in various touching ways.

For the Coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla, Kate chose to give a subtle nod to Diana’s memory by wearing a pair of her earrings for the occasion.The Princess of Wales wore a set of Diana’s pearl and diamond earrings throughout the procession and ceremony and has been spotted in them on several occasions before, with them being one of Diana’s favourite pairs.The earrings were a gift to Princess Diana from Collingwood before she became Princess of Wales, with the jewellery firm being a favourite of the Spencer family, and were given to her ahead of her wedding to Prince Charles in 1981.They feature a round diamond stud, with a second round diamond danging from it and bell cap set containing a pearl drop and three additional rows of smaller diamonds.

The touching tribute marks a handover from one Princess of Wales to another, and the earrings have become one of the most recognised pieces of jewellery that Kate wears thanks to their sentimental message.

In addition to her sweet gesture to Princess Diana, Kate also wore another touching tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth in the form of her necklace.The George VI Festoon Necklace was a gift from King George VI to his daughter Queen (then Princess) Elizabeth in 1950.
