Among the jewelry that Princess Kate Middleton still wears, perhaps the most famous is her engagement ring. This ring is talked about more than Kate’s wedding ring. The reason is because it was Princess Diana’s old engagement ring. Prince William gave that ring to Kate and explained that he wanted to do so to make it feel like “my mother didn’t miss this event”.
Because of the meaning of the ring, Kate always wears it with her wedding ring, meaning she wears at least two rings on the same finger.

However, recently, when Kate attended the Commonwealth Games, many fans of the British Royal Family realized that Kate was no longer wearing her famous engagement ring with a sapphire stone. Immediately, netizens in the UK wrote comments such as:
“I wonder how Princess Kate forgot to wear her engagement ring?”.
“Where is Kate’s engagement ring? I never see her without it.”

However, perhaps those interested in the Cambridge family do not need to worry, because Kate still appears with her husband Prince William and daughter Charlotte. That is, the fact that she doesn’t wear an engagement ring is probably not due to any problems in her small family.

In fact, sometimes Royal members can remove their rings on days of heavy activity and hot weather, to prevent their fingers from becoming slippery due to sweat, and then the ring slipping and being lost. In particular, Kate is quite thin and has small fingers, so she probably has to leave her ring at home to be safe.

There is also a case where the ring needs to be cleaned (professionally, specifically for Royal jewels) or adjusted if, for some reason, Kate does not wear it as it was originally worn. . This is understandable because when William gave the ring to propose, Kate said this was a “very special” ring and she would keep it carefully.

It’s possible that the next time Kate appears, the famous ring will be on her finger again.
