Meghan Banned from Wearing Diana’s Jewellery, While Kate Is Allowed

The Queen has banned Meghan Markle from wearing jewellery from the Royal Collection that was made famous by Princess Diana.

However, Kate Middleton is still allowed to wear the iconic pieces.

The decision has caused further tensions between Prince William and his brother Harry, as the Queen personally informed William of her decision.

According to The Sun, the Queen has loaned pieces from the Royal Collection to Princess Diana and Kate in the past.

However, sources say that she has been less than impressed with some of Meghan's behaviour, causing resentment within Buckingham Palace.

A Royal Insider revealed that this situation has been going on behind the scenes for the past few months and has caused tension and upset, especially for Harry.

It is at the discretion of the Queen and trusted advisers which items in the Royal Collection she chooses to loan out and to whom.

Aspects of Meghan's behaviour, including before the Royal Wedding, caused resentment with forces within Buckingham Palace.

The Queen herself was not impressed with some of Meghan's demands, especially as a new member of the family.

As a result, not all items from the Queen's Royal Collection will be opened up to Meghan.

The Queen informed Prince William that the items from the Royal Collection worn by Princess Diana would not immediately be made available to Meghan.

The senior source told The Sun that the Queen liked Meghan personally but her concerns were more about the hierarchy.

She is showing that maintaining the correct order and precedence within the family is important.

Despite being the most popular woman in the world, Meghan is of a lower rank than Kate.

The Duchess was stopped from wearing an emerald tiara at her nuptials last May, leading hubby Harry to explode.

However, she eventually wore a diamond and platinum headpiece chosen by the Queen.

Sources at the time said Meghan can be difficult and has high standards because she is used to working in a Hollywood environment.

There are now wider limits in place over the Royal Collection, which resulted in Prince Charles telling Meghan not to wear a tiara on a visit to Fiji in October.

The art collection, which is held by the ruling monarch, comprises over a million objects and has been amassed over 400 years.

Many are inherited while some are the Queen's personal items.

Diana borrowed a four-row Japanese pearl choker for a state banquet in 1982.

The Queen Mary Cambridge lovers knot tiara has been known as Kate's go-to hair accessory.

She wore it as recently as October for a Dutch state banquet, while the Queen reportedly loaned it to Diana as a wedding gift in 1981.

The Queen wore a diamond necklace, a 1947 wedding gift from the Nizam of Hyderabad, at Paddington Station in June 2017.

Kate wore it in 2014 for a gala evening at the National Portrait Gallery.

Another senior royal insider explained that Buckingham Palace did not want all the items in the Royal Collection to be opened up to Meghan at this time.

Obviously, Kate is the next Princess of Wales and a senior member of the family, so she has them made available to her.

That's not to say items won't be loaned to Meghan in the future if situations change.

Meghan has been able to wear jewellery from Diana's personal collection, which she allocated to her son's future wives before her death.

As a result, Meghan has worn these butterfly earrings, gold bracelet and an aquamarine ring.

Her engagement ring also features two diamond stones from the Princess's personal collection.

The tension between William and Harry has seen the latter and his wife leave Kensington Palace to set up home in Windsor away from his brother.

The Princesses have also decided to formally separate their households.
