You can now own a piece of Kate Middleton’s favourite jeweller for just £15

AS a fan of updating outfits she’s worn before, the Princess of Wales knows that jewellery is the secret to transforming a look.

Although she has diamond-encrusted tiaras and other heirloom jewels at her disposal, Kate, 42, proves she’s a little like the rest of us and actually favours jewellery from this century – and from the high street.

In January 2020 Catherine visited Ely and Caerau Children’s Centre in Cardiff.

Wearing a long, double breasted camel-coloured coat from Massimo Dutti, £349, and a £30 animal print from Zara skirt we fell in love with Kate’s high street look. 

And over her black roll neck she wore a gold coin necklace engraved with the initials of her three children’s names – Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis – along with a trio of stars.

The item came from female British jewellery designer, Daniella Draper.

With a £1,070 price tag (at the time), the necklace didn’t come cheap – but she sparked a trend of similar necklaces and has since worn it more than a handful of times. 

Including most recently in her heart warming video alongside Prince William and their children, announcing that she had finished her chemotherapy treatment. 

The personalised necklace made from 100 per cent recycled solid gold and diamonds isn’t her only favourite piece from the Lincolnshire-born designer. 

Following the necklace’s first outing in 2020, in March William and Catherine were in Dublin where Kate wore a pair of Mini Cupid Hoop earrings, £385, from the same brand which had small shamrocks attached.

And during the same trip to the emerald isle she wore a Baby Shamrock Necklace, £325, also by Draper, that she has since reworn on St Patrick’s Day.

She continued to wear the small hoops during Zoom engagements in the pandemic but also chose to add similar earrings, without the shamrocks, when she made the devastating announcement in March 2024 that she was undergoing cancer treatment.

Another piece by Kate’s favourite jewellery brand is the Alphabet Necklace, £300, again with the initials G, C and L for the young royals but this time as charms attached to a simple gold chain. 

She wore this in Scotland in 2021, when she and William visited Starbank Park in Edinburgh.

And on many other occasions she’s also worn Drapers designs, including during the filming of the couple’s 10th Anniversary video and on a day at Wimbledon, making it a household name. 

But even though the Princess’s jewellery comes with a heavy price tag, there’s now a DD design with a more affordable one. 

Available in five different colours, orange, blue, lilac, turquoise and yellow, the Silver Smiley Face Cord Bracelet with solid recycled silver charm can be yours for just £15.

And for £30 there’s a Silver Stack Ring as well as a Silver Mini Alphabet Charm to add to a necklace or bracelet you own already, to channel Kate’s look.

Plus, for £70, Daniella Draper sell Silver Tiny Cupid Hoop Earrings, similar to Kate’s – they’re sure to be popular so get them before they go.

Who inherited Princess Diana’s jewellery?

AFTER her death, Diana’s sons Prince William and Prince Harry were left three-quarters of her £21 million estate — with the other quarter going to her 17 godchildren.

In a special “letter of wishes”, Diana explained that she was leaving her jewellery to her sons’ future wives.
The letter reads: “I would like you to allocate all my jewellery to the share to be held by my sons, so that their wives may, in due course, have it or use it.
“I leave the exact division of the jewellery to your discretion.”
Some of Diana’s most iconic gems were on loan from the royal collection, while others were not included in her estate.
