Meghan Markle’s Princess Diana Obsession? Called Out Over ‘Suspicious’ Jewelry Move

Since marrying into the Royal Family in 2018, Meghan Markle has faced nearly consistent accusations of copying Princess Diana.

Whether it’s in the choice of her outfits, poses and general aesthetics, fans usually are able to find one thing or other to point a finger at and accuse the former actress of cosplaying Diana.

However, this time, royal expert Richard Kay believes there’s a real cause to point a finger.

Key Takeaways

• Meghan wore Princess Diana’s earrings to David Foster’s Canadian charity gala.
• Diana reportedly wore the same earrings during a 1986 visit to British Columbia.
• Royal expert Richard Kay questioned whether Meghan’s choice was deliberately symbolic.
• Meghan owns several pieces of jewelry that once belonged to Diana.

Is Meghan Markle’s Latest Jewelry Choice A Coincidence?

Meghan Markle opted to attend her “dear friend” David Foster’s charity event glowing in jewels that once belonged to her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana.

David Foster Foundation’s 40th anniversary gala was a star-studded event, with performances from Britain’s Got Talent winner Sydnie Christmas and Pia Toscano.

The Sussexes, who have a deep history with Foster after the composer and producer helped them secure a residence in Canada in 2019, attended the red carpet event in stunning outfits.

Harry opted to drop in in his go-to black tux, and Meghan went for a one-shoulder draped gown that fit her like a glove.

To complete the look, she paired it with Princess Diana’s earrings. Of course, you’re already thinking that if she already has Diana’s jewelry, she’s got to wear it at some point, right?

But the earrings she sought to wear for the occasion happened to be the exact same one Diana wore when she visited British Columbia back in 1986.

Speaking on the significance of this, Daily Mail’s Richard Kay said, “It does feel to me she is trying to stake a claim on Diana’s legacy. It would have taken an enormous amount of research to find out precisely what Diana wore on a visit to an obscure part of Canada.”

He then explained, “No offence, but it was a remote part of Canada back in 1986. She does look to me like she’s trying to channel the mother-in-law she never met.”

Meghan possesses quite a remarkable number of her late mother-in-law’s jewelries, including Diana’s butterfly earrings with a matching cuff bracelet, a diamond tennis bracelet, her Cartier Tank Louis watch, and the famous aquamarine ring.
