The Princess of Wales looked stunning as she stepped out on Saturday to attend the Ladies’ Singles Final on Centre Court during the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Championships.

Eagle-eyed royal fans may have noticed a particular detail about Kate’s jewellery choices as she held up her hands in glee during the game as she watched on from the Royal Box.

For the first time, Prince William’s wife, 43, stacked her heirloom engagement ring atop the three other dazzling rings she has worn on her ring finger of late.

On Saturday, she added the sapphire and diamond ring, estimated by the Antique Jewellery Company to be worth up to £400,000, to the stack, which featured her wedding ring, her first eternity ring from William after George’s birth and her new sapphire and diamond eternity ring by Cartier.

Statement Wimbledon jewels

It is not the first time Kate has made a statement with her jewellery choices at Wimbledon. In 2024, she wore one of her most eye-catching pairs of earrings to date.
