Meghan Markle wears Princess Diana’s jewelry in Australia during first outing since pregnancy announcement

Markle, 37, was spotted donning Diana’s butterfly earrings and gold bracelet as she attended events around Sydney, Australia, for her and Prince Harry’s first royal tour. The Duchess of Sussex paired the jewelry with a fitted cream dress by Australian designer Karen Gee.
Diana wore the butterfly earrings in 1986 for her trip to Canada, a year after she gave birth to Harry, People reported. The late princess had worn a blue dress and a matching butterfly necklace to go with the earrings.

The gold bracelet made an appearance in 1990 when Diana visited the Lord Gage Centre for Old People in Newham, London.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced Monday they were expecting their first child in spring 2019. The couple, who got married five months ago, told other royal family members on Friday during Princess Eugenie’s wedding to Jack Brooksbank.
