Meghan is already the owner of a few pieces which belonged to Diana - who tragically died in a car crash in Paris in 1997 at the age of 36.

On her wedding day - which took place on May 19 at St George's Chapel at Winsor Castle - Meghan wore a stunning emerald cut aquamarine ring to her evening wedding reception at Frogmore House.
