AceShowbiz - During a four-day visit to Colombia with her husband, Prince Harry, Meghan Markle wore a pair of gold butterfly earrings that once belonged to Princess Diana. The earrings were a sentimental choice for Markle, as Princess Diana worked as a kindergarten teacher before marrying Prince Charles and was known for her love of children. Markle wore the earrings while visiting Colegio La Giralda school in Bogota, where she met with a kindergarten class and participated in an art session.
Markle has been photographed wearing the butterfly earrings on several previous occasions. She first debuted them in Australia in October 2018, shortly after announcing her first pregnancy. She also wore them for the launch of her capsule collection for Smart Works in September 2019.
In addition to the butterfly earrings, Markle has worn other pieces of jewelry that previously belonged to Princess Diana. She owns Diana's aquamarine ring, diamond tennis bracelet, and a cross necklace. Markle also wore a necklace with two diamonds from Diana's personal collection in her engagement ring.
Markle's decision to wear Princess Diana's jewelry is a tribute to her late mother-in-law's legacy and a way to honor her memory. It also shows her deep connection to the royal family and her commitment to continuing Diana's work to nurture young people around the world.
