While addressing the audience during a mental health summit in New York, the Duchess of Sussex notably omitted her engagement ring, which Prince Harry had used to propose to her in 2017. This three-stone diamond ring, personally designed by Harry, featured a prominent diamond sourced from Botswana, along with two smaller diamonds from Princess Diana's collection.
Meghan's decision to once again skip the ring during the Invictus Games event in Germany has prompted ongoing speculation. Design expert and Gemologist Joanna Wyganowska, from Queensmith, explained that there are likely "very good reasons" behind Meghan's choice. She highlighted that the ring, valued at over $200,000, holds immense sentimental value and is considered invaluable. As such, Meghan may have refrained from wearing it to prevent potential damage or loss.
Wyganowska further emphasized that it is customary to have rings serviced or resized over the years. "An engagement ring is something that may be worn every single day and therefore can become damaged, for example, a setting may come loose," she noted. Given that Harry proposed to Meghan six years ago, it's entirely plausible that she is merely having the ring serviced.
Previously, insiders had disclosed that Prince William had expressed a keen interest in the whereabouts of the ring and was seeking information through mutual friends, as the uncertainty surrounding its location was causing him distress. This information was reported by sources for New Idea.
