The Monégasque royal has never shared why she rarely wears her stunning engagement ring. However, experts have pinpointed various factors.

Maxwell Stone, of jewellers , said: “Princess Charlene of Monaco’s show-stopping engagement ring features a massive three-carat, pear-cut diamond flanked by smaller diamonds in triangle arrangements.

“Because of their distinct and unmistakable cut, pear-shaped engagement rings are believed to represent empowerment, individuality, and independence.

“It may come as a surprise to hear that the Princess rarely wears her sparkler, but this could be for a range of reasons – from discomfort as a result of its sizeable centre stone, to concern about damaging it. [Princess Kate] for example typically removes her engagement ring whenever she is taking part in physical activities and sports.

“I’d estimate Princess Charlene’s ring to be worth £54,000.”
