For a more modern bride to be, you might want to steer away from the traditional coloured stones and opt for other precious stones for the main setting. This emerald style puts an updated twist on this iconic style, or this ruby engagement ring - also a classic option - is very worthy of a yes. If you (or your future fiances) interpretation of the style is bit less literal, there are plenty of other coloured stone styles to choose from. If you’re particularly after a sapphire ring in a similar style, this ring is a pretty close dead-ringer for Diana's as is this sapphire design. If you happen to find yourself in the market for an engagement ring, and The Crown’s latest season has sparked an interest in a Diana style sparkler, you’ll be glad to know there are some pretty similar options for a lot less than £100 000 (future fiances around the world can breathe a collective sigh of relief). Prince William ultimately landed up when presenting the ring to Kate Middleton on their engagement almost 30 years later in 2010. However, further reports suggested the brothers had an agreement that whichever brother was to be engaged first should have the ring and so they reportedly swapped jewellery pieces. In the Amazon Prime documentary The Diana Story he claims that Harry had originally chosen the Ceylon sapphire ring, and William a Cartier Tank watch.
However, it was apparently initially inherited by Harry, according to Diana's butler, Paul Burrell. After her death, it was was returned to the royal family. In fact, Diana actually continued to wear the sapphire and diamond ring in public for many years. Whilst you don’t need to wait for the next season of The Crown to know how the Prince and Diana’s love story ended, it is interesting to note that this iconic symbol of their marriage stayed in her possession after their acrimonious split.
