The third ring is an older piece: a sparkling, diamond-encrusted style, it hails from Annoushka – one of Kate’s favourite jewellers – and is thought to have been a present from William following the birth of Prince George in 2013. The fourth and final band adorning the Princess’ finger was, of course, her wedding ring, crafted from the same nugget of Welsh gold used for Queen Elizabeth’s own wedding band.
The last time the Princess of Wales wore a stack of rings was at the memorial service for the Duchess of Kent, although on that occasion there was also a thinner ring, set with smaller diamonds for a pavé effect.

The Princess’ choice of rings has become a matter of much discussion over the past year. In the latter half of 2024, however, many noticed that the Princess seemed to have replaced Diana’s engagement ring with something different. After the Princess of Wales made her cancer diagnosis public in March 2024, she made few public appearances; yet during that period, her engagement ring was noticeably absent.
