In recent public appearances, Kate Middleton has stopped wearing her sapphire and diamond engagement ring on her hand, which belonged to her late mother-in-law, Lady Di. A situation that has attracted attention and that also questions why prince william He doesn’t wear his wedding ring.
If we remember, the heir to the british throne He has never been seen with his wedding ring. A decision that he himself chose to follow since he married Kate, in April 2011. However, this has a reason, which we will tell you here.
Why isn’t Prince William wearing his wedding ring?
According to what a source told The Mirror, The decision not to wear his ring is due to William’s style and personality.. “He doesn’t like jewelry,” he noted. “He has never worn one. He decided he didn’t want to wear any now. “It all comes down to personal preferences,” he stressed.
While royal commentator Eloise Parker suggests it has more to do with tradition. “Although it is traditional for royal women to wear both an engagement ring and a wedding ring “After getting married, it has never been traditional for royal men to wear one,” he noted.
“That’s why Prince Philip and Prince William don’t wear it. I think that when you have a wedding seen by millions of people, everyone knows that you are married,” according to what the expert explained in the British Royal House.
And since the name of the grandfather of the future king of England comes up, let’s remember that Philip of Edinburgh was married to Queen Elizabeth II for 73 years and never wore his wedding ring. Something contrary to that of the current monarch, Charles III, who usually wears his ring, even under his signet ring.
Kate Middleton did not wear her engagement ring
On the other hand, and as we mentioned at the beginning, in his last appearance Kate Middleton did not wear her engagement ring sapphire and diamond which belonged to the late Lady Di. A situation that has given rise to countless rumors about a possible crisis between the couple.
However, some royal experts believe that this situation is not due to problems in the marriage but could be due to simple personal choice. Something that makes perfect sense if we take into account that Isabel II always wore her ring, while Queen Letizia of Spain has not worn her engagement ring for years.
