Elizabeth restricted access to royal jewelry

According to the Daily Mail, which cites a source close to Buckingham Palace, Prince Charles's daughter-in-law has been restricted from accessing Windsor jewelry.

Who and why did Elizabeth forbid touching the royal jewelry?

It turns out that Prince Harry's wife, Meghan Markle, has fallen out of favor. Her Majesty did not like the high demands and wastefulness of the wife of her youngest grandson. Ultimately, Buckingham Palace imposed a ban on the Duchess of Sussex wearing royal jewelry to maintain order, hierarchy and supremacy.

Maybe Prince Harry shouldn’t have said from the very beginning that Meghan could get absolutely anything she wants? (These are the instructions the staff received from the Duke of Sussex after his wedding). They say that Elizabeth II really did not like this phrase.

The ban means that Prince Harry's wife will not be able to wear Windsor jewelry to official events, including the banjo tiara she wore to her own wedding.Now the Duchess of Sussex will be forced to wear only personal jewelry even at official ceremonies. However, as the insider said, the situation could still change.

Interesting! Brides at the royal wedding in England before Meghan Markle wore their house tiaras. For example, Princess Diana got married wearing the Spencer family tiara. This is the tradition. But Megan had nothing like that. They say she wanted to wear a tiara with emeralds to her wedding, but Princess Eugenie ended up getting it. And Miss Markle wore another tiara of the House of Windsor - the banjo. It was ordered almost a century ago by Mary of Teck, grandmother of Elizabeth II.

Why was Meghan Markle punished? Details of the scandal

According to insiders, Her Majesty was unhappy that several months before today's events The Duchess of Sussex insisted on taking a diamond tiara from the royal collection on an official trip to Fiji.

The story ended with the intervention of Prince Charles, who gently reproached his daughter-in-law that she shouldn’t wear such expensive jewelry in a poor country.

What about the other royals?

In the same time Prince Charles's eldest daughter-in-law, Prince William's wife Kate Middleton, has unlimited access to the Windsor treasury. She repeatedly appeared wearing precious jewelry from the royal house at official events. For example, quite often Kate wears the pearl “Cambridge” tiara, which Princess Diana loved very much.
