October 16, 2024: Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, reignited speculation after she was spotted without her signature engagement ring at a recent personal event in California. During the International Day of the Girl, Meghan painted and crafted with young women at the Girls Inc. Center in Greater Santa Barbara. Despite the elegant attire, many noticed that the famous engagement ring designed by Prince Harry was missing.
Prince Harry designed this custom ring in 2017, which has deep sentimental value. It includes two diamonds from the collection of his late mother, Princess Diana, as well as a larger diamond from Botswana, which was significant in the couple’s early relationship. The ring is set on a simple gold band that has symbolized the couple’s bond since Harry’s romantic proposal at Kensington Palace.
However, while her engagement ring is missing, Meghan is still seen wearing her wedding ring. This isn’t the first time she’s been spotted without a ring. She sparked similar rumors when she appeared without them during the 2023 Invincible Games in Dusseldorf. Sources clarified at the time that the ring was being restored and resurfaced earlier this year.
Meghan and Prince Harry have each attended a number of high-profile events recently. Harry has been traveling extensively, promoting his charities in New York, London and South Africa. Meghan, on the other hand, has been spending her time focusing on her own projects, including attending a glamorous charity gala for Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, where she was seen wearing an engagement ring.
The separate public appearances fueled rumors about the couple’s relationship, with some speculating that Meghan’s decision to ditch her engagement ring could be indicative of deeper marital problems. However, insiders say this may simply reflect the couple’s changing attitudes in their professional and personal lives. According to sources, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are taking a “dual-track approach” by focusing on their personal pursuits while continuing to support each other.
An insider told people “The Duke and Duchess have found their own stride as individuals, not just as a couple,” the magazine wrote. Another added, “While Harry remains committed to his patronage, Meghan is channeling her energy into her entrepreneurial endeavors.”
While rumors are still circulating, it’s unclear whether Meghan’s absence of a ring is a style or an actual choice, or if it means something more.
