Meghan Markle’s connection to Princess Beatrice’s engagement ring

You've seen this design before! - by Chadielle Fayad
  • 27 Sep 2019

Princess Beatrice is finally engaged to Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi., and she has the ring to prove it!

Yesterday British jeweller Shaun Leane revealed that Beatrice's fiance had collaborated with him in designing Beatrice's ring.

“I am so honoured Edoardo chose to work with me to design the engagement ring for Princess Beatrice and to have been involved in this special moment in their lives,” said Leane.

“The main diamond is 2.5 carats,” added the jewellery designer. “The baguette diamonds on the side are .75 carats. They are from Botswana and ethically sourced.”

Leane's pieces have been worn by Kate Moss, Cameron Diaz, Uma Thurman and Adele, but they're also a royals favourite.

Meghan Markle is a huge fan of the British designer's work after being gifted several of his gold pieces last year.

The Duchess of Sussex wore the Yellow Gold Vermeil Diamond Tusk Bangle at the London launch of her Smart Works collection of clothing.

According to Leane, Edoardo was heavily involved in crafting the unique ring.

“Edo was very prepared and he had done his research. He had a very strong feeling about what he wanted,” said Leane, adding that his love of Art deco designs influenced the design.

“He knew that he wanted a round stone, and he knew he wanted platinum. We talked about aesthetic and he said, ‘I really love Art Deco, and Beatrice really likes a Victorian aesthetic in jewellery.’ We talked about fusing the two together and he thought it would be lovely to do that, to fuse their two personalities together within the ring. There was a real unity.”

Leane said the diamond engagement ring was crafted over five to six meetings adding that the property tycoon "came with thoughts and then I would relay those thoughts into sketches."

"He personally chose the stones. The ring was crafted upstairs with my goldsmiths. With our bespoke service, we document every single stage of the ring so throughout the whole process I would mail Edo the pictures of the ring — there was a constant communication."
