Dressed in a pretty blue dress, Kate proudly displayed her central sapphire ring and diamond crown on William’s arm.
This ring was chosen by Charles for Diana. The princess loved sapphires, which were her favorite stone because they matched her eye color perfectly. It is said that the prince chose the ring created by Garrard from a catalog in a very distant manner, as if to foretell the tragic fate of their union.
