The grandson’s marriage did not go according to Elizabeth II’s plan.
The wedding of Kate Middleton and Prince William was not only grandiose, but also the most controversial event of 2011 in the British royal family. The holiday was accompanied by a series of scandals.
Perhaps the most important of these concerned wedding rings. Contrary to royal tradition, the newlyweds simply rejected the idea of exchanging jewelry at the altar. At the same time, the tradition has existed for centuries, and Elizabeth II, as the most ardent follower of traditions, strictly followed it after her marriage 70 years earlier.
Incidentally, Lady Dee’s son still refuses to wear a ring, writes the Express edition. Surrounded by the Windsors’ heir, they claim this is his personal decision. He does not like such trinkets. At the same time, Katherine likes to wear a jewel at social receptions. As a gift from her fiancé, she received Princess Diana’s engagement ring with a blue Ceylon sapphire surrounded by 14 diamonds.
