Meghan Markle keeps a close connection to her late mother-in-law Princess Diana by wearing pieces from her jewellery collection, gifted to her by husband Prince Harry. When Diana died, her private jewellery was divided up between her sons, and Harry appears to have gifted many pieces from the collection to his wife Meghan during their six-year marriage. Notable pieces include an Asprey emerald cut aquarmarine ring, Cartier diamond tennis bracelet and Cartier watch as well as a diamond cross necklace, which Meghan was spotted wearing during her recent Nigeria trip alongside Harry.
During the couple's whirlwind three-day tour, Meghan appeared to wear a diamond-jewelled cross as she attended a reception for military families in Abuja.

A source told the outlet: "Diana remains a prominent force in Harry’s life and as a result, Meghan’s.
So much of his work is inspired by his mum, and it’s evident how much she still means to him. A gift to his wife that once belonged to his mother is incredibly meaningful and that isn’t lost on his wife." However, the cross necklace is thought to have sparked intrigue as Diana wasn't known.
