Princess Charlotte proved she is growing up fast when she joined the royals for their annual Christmas Day outing. The nine-year-old co-ordinated with her mum, the Princess of Wales, by wearing a stylish tartan jacket that complimented Kate's forest green coat by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen. On closer inspection, it seems that Charlotte also wore a dainty necklace just above the collar of her coat.
And it has emerged that the necklace has a very impressive price tag - and even has a link to her uncle Prince Harry, who is estranged from his brother and Charlotte's dad, Prince William. That's because, according to the Mail On Sunday, the £1,500 necklace is from a brand called Aya, which has been created by Harry's ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy. Unfortunately, the gold and ruby necklace is no longer available on the site.
Chelsey was in an on-off relationship with Harry for many years. They eventually split permanently in 2011, with Harry later marrying Meghan Markle and having two kids with the actress. Chelsey attended their wedding in Windsor. Harry and Chelsy first met when she was studying at Cheltenham College before getting together on the Prince's gap year in Cape Town in 2004. Chelsea previously described the attention surrounding their relationship as "nuts". During their time together, Chelsy was pictured several times with Kate as the two women were often seen cheering on their partners when they took to the polo pitch.
In his memoir Spare, Harry talked fondly of his ex, saying: "Unlike so many people I knew, she seemed wholly unconcerned with appearances, with propriety, with royalty. Unlike so many girls I met, she wasn’t visibly fitting herself for a crown the moment she shook my hand.
