Mystery on the diamond and emerald necklace worn by Kate Middleton at Bafta ♦ ︎
A thriller at the Bafta, the event that is considered the British answer to the Oscars in Los Angeles. But it’s not a movie. As all the newspapers reported, Prince William and Duchess Kate Middleton, his wife, were present at the ceremony at the Royal Albert Hall in London. Everyone focused on the baby bump (Kate is waiting for her third child, who will be born in April) and on her dress: she did not wear a black dress as a sign of protest for violence against women, but dark green, because according to the protocol members of the Royal House can not take political positions in public situations. For the record, the dress was signed by Jenny Packham. But few have noticed another aspect: the necklace and earrings of diamonds and emeralds worn by the duchess. No official statement specified the origin of the jewel worn for the first time by Kate Middleton. Someone has speculated that it is one of the many jewels owned by Queen Elizabeth and lent for the occasion to the wife of the nephew. Could be. But the fact is that no known image portrays the queen with that jewel, but with other diamond and emerald necklaces. The mystery remains. Alessia Mongrando
