Princess Anne's engagement ring vastly different from the Queen's – except one key feature

Maxwell continued: “Princess Diana also famously had a blue sapphire ring, which is now in the hands of Kate Middleton, while the Queen is frequently seen sporting the gemstone on her famous brooches.”

But when it comes to engagement rings, Princess Anne did not take after her mother, Queen Elizabeth II, aside from one key feature.

Maxwell described HRH’s engagement ring from Prince Philip as “breathtaking”.

While Princess Anne’s sparkler features a 3ct sapphire, the Queen’s is a 3ct round solitaire diamond.
