Meghan Markle wears Princess Diana’s tennis bracelet

- GERRY CUPIDO

ALL eyes have been on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as keen royal watchers ready themselves for the viewing of what’s anticipate­d to be an explosive interview with the queen of talk show, Oprah Winfrey.

In a teaser trailer to the interview we see a pregnant Duchess of Sussex wearing a black full-length wrap dress by Giorgio Armani featuring floral embroidery over one shoulder.

The mother of one, who is due to welcome her second baby later this year, cradled her growing baby bump which she shows off with the belt of the dress tied above her stomach.

She kept the accessorie­s to her outfit fairly simple, but with one being a very special and sentimenta­l piece.

On her left wrist, she wears three bracelets. One being the diamond tennis bracelet which belonged to her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana.

The dazzling Cartier bracelet is from Princess Diana’s collection and retails at £17 700 (about R376 553).

It’s fitting that Markle would pay tribute to Diana during the interview

since the media have drawn comparison­s between the trials and tribulatio­ns of Diana’s life to that of the struggles Meghan is suffering as a member of the royal family.

Along with the tennis bracelet, she wears a gold Cartier Love Bracelet, which is believed to be a gift from Prince Harry during the early days of their romance.

The third is a dainty gold chain bracelet.
