The piece is likely a gift from her new husband as his mother left her jewellery collection to her sons Harry and Williams future wives.

In a letter of wishes, Diana said: I would like you to allocate all my jewellery to the share to be held by my sons, so that their wives may, in due course, have it or use it.

I leave the exact division of the jewellery to your discretion.

Both Meghan and Kates engagement rings have diamonds from Dianas collection.

It is believed that Prince William gave Kate his mothers sapphire and diamond earrings on their big day in 2011.

They were pictured as they climbed into a 1968 Jaguar E-Type with the registration E190518 – the date of their wedding.
