The bracelet in question is adorned with blue beads, bearing a striking resemblance to the one Prince Harry wears. When images of Meghan wearing a similar bracelet surfaced, the internet buzzed with excitement as people eagerly compared the two pieces of jewelry. However, what often went unnoticed in those pictures was another bracelet right alongside the beads – a bracelet that Prince Harry has cherished for over two decades.
This unassuming silver bracelet carries a poignant yet tragic story, and Harry holds it in high regard, even though it may not have garnered much attention at the time. Prince Harry frequently adorns this silver bracelet, reserving it for significant occasions like formal school photographs, major polo matches, and the day he received his test results. It even graced his wrist on what was arguably the most significant day of his life up to that point – his wedding day.
As reported by Business Insider, it is believed that Harry acquired this bracelet during his travels to Africa in 1997, shortly after the tragic loss of his mother, Princess Diana. In a past interview, Harry shared, "I first came [to Africa] in 1997, straight after my mum died. My dad told my brother and me to pack our bags — we were going to Africa to get away from it all."
Since that initial visit, Prince Harry has formed a deep bond with the continent, frequently embarking on both personal and official royal visits to various African nations. Notably, Prince William also possesses a similar bracelet, although he rarely showcases it in photographs, making Harry's bracelet a symbol of personal significance and enduring connection.
