Lilibet could inherit jewellery worth £410k from Meghan Markle and Princess Diana

The Queen is the proud owner of some seriously impressive and historic jewels, many of which cost more than most people could expect to earn in their lifetime.

And other members of the Royal Family also have their own collection of sentimental and eye-wateringly expensive gems.

Many of these pieces will one day be inherited by younger members of the family, such as Princess Charlotte and Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor.

Much like her second cousin, Prince Harry and Meghan's daughter will likely be the owner of some of her mother's jewellery, as well as some pieces that previously belonged to Diana, Princess of Wales.

According to Jewellery experts at Steven Stone, the amount that Lili could one day inherit amounts to a staggering £410k.

Topping the list as something Meghan would almost certainly pass down to her daughter is her £150k Cartier bracelet that she previously wore on her wedding day to Prince Harry.

The beautiful bracelet is made up of 104 brilliant cut diamonds and 52 baguette cut diamonds.

Leading Diamond Expert, Maxwell Stone commented: “Worth £150,000, Meghan’s stunning bracelet is composed of 18K white gold, set with 104 brilliant-cut diamonds totalling 4.50 carats, and 52 baguette-cut diamonds totalling 5.61 carats.

"Worn by Meghan on her wedding day, this would be a heart-warming piece for Lilibet to inherit that she could possibly pair with her own wedding dress in the future.”

Another of Meghan's jewels that could be Lilibet's one day is The Asprey Aquamarine ring that previously belonged to Diana, Princess of Wales.

The ring has an estimated value between £75k-85k and was only worn by the late royal on two occasions. It was then given to Meghan by Harry to wear for their wedding reception.

Lilibet could also stand to inherit her grandmother's £25k gold cuff bangle that Meghan was pictured wearing earlier this year at the NAACP Image Awards in California.

Meghan is clearly fond of the expensive bracelet as she first wore it during her royal tour of Australia with Prince Harry in 2018.

While other items that Lili could own one day also include Meghan's £10k wedding band, her £3.5k Cartier stud earrings and Diana's Cartier Tank Française Watch, it is possible that she may inherit her mother's £120k engagement ring.

Diana's iconic engagement ring was used by Prince William when he proposed to Kate in 2010, however, Meghan's features three stones from her late mother-in-law's collection.

The Princess of Wales's ring is a 12 carat oval sapphire surrounded by 14 round diamonds set in 18 karat white gold and is estimated to be worth around £390,000.

The ring is a very sentimental piece, with Prince William explaining why he chose to use his late mother's ring during his engagement interview in 2010. He said that it was a "way of making sure my mother didn't miss out".

He explained: "I had been carrying it around with me in my rucksack for about three weeks before that and I literally would not let it go, everywhere I went I was keeping hold of it because I knew this thing if it disappeared I would be in a lot of trouble and because I'd planned it, it went fine.

"You hear a lot of horror stories about proposing and things going horribly wrong - it went really, really well and I was really pleased she said yes." Elsewhere in the famous interview, Kate spoke about the value of the ring and how it was "very special".
