Royal fans were in awe when Harry proposed to Meghan with a stunning diamond ring, worth a staggering £199,475.
But now, the public can buy their own version of the Duchess’ engagement ring, but at a fraction of the cost.
Buckingham Palace is now selling a replica of Meghan’s ring on the official royal memorabilia website, The Royal Collection shop.
The ring, called the “Buckingham Palace Statement ring” goes on sale for only £30.
According to the site, the ring is “inspired” by the Duchess’ jewels, and comes with an adjustable band.
Meghan’s original diamond ring was designed by Harry, and features three diamonds – two from Princess Diana’s personal collection and one from Botswana – set in a gold band.
Royal fans can now buy the stunning replica online, along with a pair of matching earrings and pendant necklace – which are sold for £25 and £30 respectively.
The imitation ring will feature three crystals, on an adjustable band made of palladium plated metal.
The Buckingham Palace website reads: “The design of this new statement range, is inspired by the engagement ring of Meghan Markle.”
Customers will receive the ring in a white statement box, with Meghan and Harry’s initials labelled in gold.
A pendant necklace bears the same design as the ring, featuring three crystals attached to a palladium plated chain.
Meghan’s ring, designed by Harry’s favourite jeweller Cleave and Company, holds a special meaning to him.
Speaking about his wife’s ring after their engagement announcement, Prince Harry told the BBC: “The ring is obviously yellow gold because that’s her favourite and the main stone itself I sourced from Botswana and the little diamonds either side are from my mother’s jewellery collection to make sure that she’s with us on this — on this crazy journey together.”
Botswana is a special place to Meghan and Harry.
The pair spent their third date there, as well Meghan’s 36th birthday last year.
Describing their time in Botswana together, Harry said: “We camped out with each other under the stars.
“She came and joined me for five days out there, which was absolutely fantastic.”
Meghan has become a fashion icon in the UK ever since she started dating Prince Harry, and fans across the country are eager to emulate her sophisticated style.
The Duchess’ outfits easily sell out within hours after she wears them, raking in millions for designers.
Fashion experts say the Meghan effect could contribute £150 million to the British fashion industry.
David Haigh, CEO of the British consultancy firm Brand Finance, said she “will quickly match or even surpass the Duchess of Cambridge in her incredible influence on the fashion industry”.
