Meghan Markle dazzles in sparkly Roland Mouret gown and Princess Diana's bracelet at Royal Albert Hall

On Wednesday evening Meghan Markle added a significant splash of sparkle to her maternity wardrobe.

Arriving at the Royal Albert Hall with Prince Harry for a special performance of Cirque du Soleil in support of Sentebale, a charity founded by Prince Harry in 2006, the heavily pregnant duchess glowed from head-to-toe in a midnight blue sequinned gown by Roland Mouret.

The glamorous number, worth £3,495, perfectly hugged the 37-year-old's baby bump and definitely amped up the royal's eveningwear repertoire. A front split showed off a pair of strappy Stuart Weitzman sandals and burgundy painted toenails which matched her deep berry lip.

Although the gown immediately caught people's attention, many were quick to notice another key aspect of the outfit: Princess Diana's heirloom bracelet.

It isn't the first time Meghan has been seen wearing the gold bracelet with blue stones. Following the news that the royal couple were expecting their first child back in October 2018, Meghan wore the bracelet along with Diana's butterfly earring during a royal tour of Sydney.

We're sure it won't be the last time Meghan pays sartorial homage to her late mother-in-law.
