Meghan Markle wears jewellery gifted to her by Queen Elizabeth at the state funeral
Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, wore pearl earrings gifted by Queen Elizabeth II at the late monarch's state funeral in a touching tribute that she shared with Catherine, Princess of Wales

Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, paid a subtle tribute to Queen Elizabeth II at her state funeral with pearl earrings given to her by the late monarch.
Attending the emotional event with Prince Harry, Meghan opted for a glittering pair of pearl-and-diamond drop earrings gifted to her by the Queen in honour of her first royal engagement. She coordinated the jewellery with an all-black cape sleeve dress from Stella McCartney and a matching wide-brimmed Dior hat.
Meghan first debuted the earrings back in 2018 when she visited Chester to open the new Mersey Gateway Bridge.
Opting for minimalist-minded accessories, Meghan paired the pearls with her favourite Cartier Love bracelet in yellow gold and her stacked diamond wedding bands, ensuring the beautiful earrings truly stood out.
