The Duchess of Sussex kept her accessories to a minimum as she attended the state funeral of Elizabeth II. But the jewellery she did include in her striking ensemble was particularly sentimental.The former Suits actress, 41, opted to team her all black caped dress and elbow length gloves with a simple pair of diamond and pearl drop studs which had been gifted to her by the late monarch during an engagement they did together in 2018.The beautiful jewellery, which could be seen peeking out from Meghan's wide brimmed hat, is thought to be a smaller version of the earrings that the late Queen tended to wear every day.
Meghan has also worn the pearls, which are no doubt now even more precious to her, when she attended a ceremony at Westminster Hall after the Queen's coffin had been transported from Buckingham Palace.
The Duchess revealed the touching story behind the beautiful jewellery during her landmark 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey alongside husband Prince Harry.
She said: "The Queen, for example, has always been wonderful to me. I mean, we have our first joint engagements together. She asked me to join her." "We had breakfast together that morning, and she'd given me a beautiful gift, and I just really loved being in her company." Revealing the details of the present, she said: "She gave me some beautiful pearl earrings and a matching necklace." Apart from the sentimental jewellery, Meghan kept the rest of her accessories low key, opting for a high neckline rather than a necklace and wearing a simple golden bangle on her left wrist.The result really ensured the beautiful earrings stood out.
