Meghan Markle's expensive tribute to Princess Diana as she steps out in Germany
Meghan Markle pays tribute to Princess Diana with £17.5k timepiece.
Meghan Markle has paid an expensive tribute to Princess Diana during her and Prince Harry's Germany visit by wearing her late mother-in-law's Cartier watch.
- Meghan Markle has paid a subtle tribute to Princess Diana with one special accessory.
- The Duchess of Sussex has been pictured wearing Diana's gold Cartier watch in Dusseldorf.
- This royal news comes as Queen's 'purple' hands spark concern amongst royal fans as they spot 'nasty' bruising during Liz Truss meeting.
Meghan Markle has paid an expensive tribute to the late Princess Diana during her Dusseldorf engagement by wearing her £17,800 gold Cartier Tank watch.
The Duchess of Sussex had previously kept her accessories low-key including those she wore with her red outfit for the One Young World summit in Manchester.
But to add a touch of glamour to her beige ensemble, Meghan layered her watch with her £5k Cartier Love bangle, a £2,611 mini gold tennis bracelet designed by Jennifer Meyer plus her £271k engagement ring.
But the watch has a special meaning for the couple who are visiting Germany for Prince Harry's Invictus Games as it was the watch that Prince Harry's mother was gifted by her father for her 21st birthday.
Meghan has previously gushed about the style of timepiece as she is known to be a fan of the Cartier Tank watch and bought her very own as a celebratory gift to herself when Suits was given the go-ahead for a third series.
At the time, she told Hello! magazine, "I've always coveted the Cartier French Tank watch. When I found out Suits had been picked up for our third season—which, at the time, felt like such a milestone—I totally splurged and bought the two-tone version.
