Meghan Markle ditches her R2m ring during SA tour

She is said to have made the decision in an effort to keep her trip 'low key'.


In an effort to reportedly keep her family’s highly publicized tour “low-key”, the Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle is said to have removed her £140,000 (R2 million) engagement ring for the second day running.

After having been spotted without the three-carat rock on Monday, Daily Mail reports that the 38-year-old opted to only keep her gold wedding band on, pairing it with a turquoise Jennifer Meyer ring and a set of earrings from the same designer.

After noticing this, many Southern African’s took to Twitter to question the move.

The custom-made engagement ring was designed for her by Harry when he proposed, and she later redesigned it “to make it look more dainty.”
