Kate Middleton, 39, has worn many lavish pieces of jewellery including tiaras, necklaces and rings. She will often wear rings from her private collection as well as ones she has been gifted by Prince William, 38.

As working royals, Kate and Prince William have switched to virtual engagements due to the coronavirus crisis.

Whether stepping out or appearing virtually, the Duchess will attract attention with what she is wearing.

The royal has an enviable wardrobe to match her extensive jewellery collection.

Aside from royal jewels, Kate has also worn some pieces that could have more sentimental meanings.

DON’T MISS

Kate has worn an eye-catching citrine ring several times while in the Royal Family.

The piece of jewellery has a large citrine jewel and is yellow in colour.

She first wore the jewel before her wedding and it could be worth a small fortune, Ben Johnson, Managing Director at Miltons Diamonds, explained.

“The ring looks like a very large citrine stone to me and judging by the size of it could be worth anything from £5,000 up to £20,000,” he told Express.co.uk.

“It is widely claimed that the citrine crystal emanates optimism and can be used to direct personal will and decisiveness.”

The Duchess of Cambridge could have conveyed this message by wearing the piece on solo engagements, Ben added.

He said: “This would explain the motivation behind Kate’s decision to wear it on occasions when she is not accompanied by the Duke of Cambridge, attending events on her own terms.

“She is an experienced royal now, capable and independent.”

The Duchess of Cambridge has a lavish jewellery collection which includes many impressive rings.

The royal line of succession – who outranks who?

The line of succession to the British throne dictates the order in which each member of the Royal Family would ascend to the throne.

It is also seen as a ranking of importance with the head of the line, the Queen, taking the place of ruler.

Older children come before younger children. Traditionally boys came before girls, but this law was changed on 26 March 2015 before the birth of Prince William’s first child.

Incredibly, Catholics are still excluded from the line of succession, as are children born outside of wedlock.

The royals, who usually stick to a strict protocol when appearing in public, often arrive at events in ascending order of importance, with the most important royal arriving last.

Prince Charles, 72, is currently first-in-line to the British throne, followed by Prince William, 38, his oldest son.

Then comes Prince William’s children, George, seven, Charlotte, five, and Louis, two, and they are followed by Prince Harry, 36. Prince Harry is succeeded by his son Archie Harrison, born in May 2019.
