Users Notice Meghan Markle’s Iconic Engagement Ring ‘Looks Hugely Larger’ in Recent Instagram Photos

Recently, fans of Meghan Markle have sparked an online discussion after noticing that her iconic engagement ring seems to have significantly changed. Fans have noticed the increased size of the ring in recent Instagram photos.

Meghan Markle fans have noted a change in her engagement ring recently. This observation has led to speculation and curiosity across social media platforms. Users have been comparing past images of the ring with the latest ones, trying to determine whether the ring has been altered.

On various social media platforms, fans have been vocal about their observations, and sharing their thoughts. One user wrote, "Is it just me or has #MeghanMarkle’s engagement ring doubled in size?"

This sentiment was echoed by another, stating, "Definitely. I immediately noticed that." The discussion grew as more people chimed in, with comments ranging from "Her diamond ring massively looks hugely larger and media is silent," to observations like "looks like a diamond twice the size of the original one."

Some fans speculated about the reasons behind the change, suggesting, "So that’s why she didn’t wear it for so long. In the hope that no one would compare pics." Another added, "Doesn't look anything like the original ring." Another fan said Markle thought her old ring "wasn't big enough."

Clarence House made Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's engagement public via Twitter. The statement mentioned that details about the wedding day would be unveiled "in due course." Interestingly, Downing Street confirmed "no plans" for a bank holiday on the couple's big day.

Prince Harry took great care in designing Meghan's ring for their engagement. The ring features two diamonds that belonged to his late mother, Princess Diana. This thoughtful inclusion was aimed at making sure Diana was part of this joyous occasion. The central diamond of the ring comes from Botswana, a country that holds special significance for Harry and Meghan.

The band itself is made of yellow gold, which is Meghan's favorite, according to Prince Harry. Upon receiving the ring, Meghan remarked on Harry's thoughtfulness. She stated that it was deeply meaningful to have a piece of Harry's mother, whom she never met, included in her ring.

Prince Harry's proposal to Meghan Markle was in the comfort of their shared home at Kensington Palace. Described by Harry as a "standard, typical night for us," the scene was set during a cozy evening as the couple were making roast chicken. It was in this intimate setting, that Harry chose to pop the question, catching Meghan completely by surprise.

Meghan shared that the proposal was "an amazing surprise," describing it as "so sweet and natural and very romantic." Harry recounted the moment with fondness, revealing that Meghan was so excited she didn't even let him finish proposing before saying yes. "She didn't even let me finish. She said 'Can I say yes,'" Harry added with a smile.

Following her eager acceptance, there were hugs and an endearing exchange about the ring. "I said 'Can I give you the ring?'. She said: 'Oh, yes, the ring'," Harry recalled, highlighting the spontaneous and genuine joy of the moment. Harry later noted, "And I think I managed to catch you by surprise as well."

As fans continue to scrutinize the changes noticed in recent photos, the ring's evolution remains a topic of lively discussion. There has been no official comment on whether the ring has been modified.

Meghan's engagement ring, originally designed to carry a legacy with its links to Princess Diana and significant personal touches from Prince Harry, continues to symbolize the couple's love story and connection to royal tradition.

The latest discussion about the ring comes from a campaign we previously reported on in which Meghan posed for pictures with two other women in support of mothers.

Meghan Markle recently partook in a campaign celebrating mothers. The campaign aims to celebrate Mother’s Day and support young parents who have been in foster care. It's part of an effort to help these young families succeed and thrive. The campaign has sparked discussion about Meghan's role as a mother to her children with Prince Harry.

In the campaign, Meghan and two other women are shown wearing T-shirts that read "Love Like a Mother." These photos were shared on Instagram with a caption emphasizing support and inspiration from these women. The caption praises their ability to uplift others with strong, pure love.

The campaign is organized by the Alliance of Moms and aims to provide essential services, education, and advocacy. The focus is on assisting young parents who have experienced foster care, helping them and their children heal and thrive. The T-shirts sold are priced at $38 each and all proceeds will support these services.

The official campaign message celebrates the nurturing and powerful love of mothers. It emphasizes community building, support, and the deep, bold receipt and giving of love. A direct link was provided in the Instagram bio for easy access to the campaign’s product page. While the campaign is all about positivity in motherhood, critics found fault with Meghan.

The campaign has elicited various reactions from the public, as seen in the comments on the Instagram post. Some people expressed admiration and support. Others criticized Meghan's personal life choices, particularly her time spent with her children.

One fan expressed concern about Meghan's frequent travels, saying, "Meghan spends a lot of time away from her 'children'." Another, however, celebrated the support among women. This person gushed, "Love to see women support women, mothers support mothers, friends support friends. 🤍"

An enthusiastic supporter commented on the beauty of the women in the campaign: "Ahhh Meg!!❤️ I love this 😍😍 All 3 of you are so beautiful!!" they gushed. Another stated, "Great shirt." Criticism also emerged about Meghan's privacy with her children. "Has anybody ever seen Meghan's kids, Always private jetting around the world, but kids are never with her??" one critic asked.

Further negative reactions included "She doesn’t even spend time with her own kids!" and "You’d never know she’s a mom. Keeps it a secret cuz the kids are invisible. She’s too Busy traveling to be a mom." One comment questioned her priorities, asking, "When is she going to stay home and be a Mother to her children and quit seeking attention?"

While Meghan faces scrutiny over her role as a mother, Prince Harry's approach to fatherhood has been viewed positively. His friend and fellow polo player, Ignacio "Nacho" Figueras, has publicly praised Harry's dedication to his family.

Figueras explained that he has witnessed Harry's deep commitment to being a good father. According to Figueras, "Prince Harry is doing very well, and I admire how he has fully embraced fatherhood over the past couple of years. He loves being a dad" to his son Prince Archie, 4, and daughter Princess Lilibet, 2. He added, "He loves parenthood. I admire him so much as a parent."

This admiration was evident when Prince Harry and Meghan attended the Royal Salute Polo Challenge charity match on April 12. Although their children were not present, Prince Harry and Meghan's affection for children was clear. They warmly greeted Figueras and Delfina Blaquier’s daughter Alba, who was in attendance.

The campaign featuring Meghan has sparked a broad discussion about the different aspects of motherhood, public perception, and family support. It highlights how public figures like Meghan and Prince Harry are scrutinized but also appreciated for their roles as parents. The positive impact of the campaign, supporting young parents in foster care, is a significant aspect of their public efforts.

Meghan is no stranger to public criticism. She has been criticized for everything from her parenting to her dress sense. We previously reported that critics shared their negative opinions of Meghan for a dress she wore to a dinner she attended with her husband.

That weekend, Meghan turned heads in a chic, backless black dress. She wore the dress for a dinner with Prince Harry and their friends.

According to posts shared by fellow attendees, Delfina Blaquier and Ignacio Figueras, the event was in honor of the Sentebale charity, which Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso founded in 2006.

The dinner was held at the luxurious Four Seasons resort in Florida where the Sussexes stayed during their trip. According to a recent article published by a media outlet, the resort is known for its $8,000-per-night suites and top-notch service.

It boasts oceanfront views and offers direct access to the beach and pools. Guests who stay at the Palm Beach resort can dine at either of its two restaurants or enjoy a cocktail at Florie’s bar, which uses ingredients from the five-star resort’s garden.

The Sea Breeze Suite offers an authentically coastal lifestyle and is reported to be the most desirable suite. Located on the resort's first floor, the suite welcomes fresh breezes from the sea.

At one point during their stay, Prince Harry and Meghan were seen taking a stroll through the pool area adorning casual and comfortable wear.

The couple's weekend also involved work as Prince Harry was spotted on the set of their upcoming Netflix show, where both he and Meghan serve as producers.

Photos and video footage showed the Prince busy with production details. Later on, Meghan joined her husband on the set.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's luxurious trip has since ignited a wave of mixed reactions from social media users. Some have criticized the couple and questioned their children's whereabouts.

“And where are the kids?” asked a user while another pondered, “Has someone checked on the children?!” Another person simply stated, “Those poor kids have no parents," and someone else said, "Those poor kids. How can they constantly leave [their] kids[?] Have the kids ever had a holiday?"

Others criticized Meghan’s attire, saying, “What a trashy dress. Over exposed, and in black. She really is ridiculous,” and “It seems quite informal. Meghan looks a bit bare, but she loves a halterneck.”

Another user shared, "The hotel dinner attended by Meghan and Harry shows yet again, that Meghan over dresses. Everyone else is smart casual and Meghan looks like she’s at a beach party." Another social media user rudely remarked, "They are a disgrace to the royal family."

Someone else expressed concern for their spending habits, writing, “I don’t know how they can afford that.” On this, another user expressed, “The average room at the Four Seasons in Palm Beach does not cost this much. So - why did they need the most lavish accommodations?”

However, amid the criticisms, many defended the couple and praised Meghan’s look. “They deserve what they work for. I’m happy for them. Enjoy yourselves. 👌🏻💯🤨❤️❤️❤️😍👍🏻😘💋🙏🏼,” asserted a fan.

Another gushed, “Love seeing them thriving and having the lives they want,” and someone else praised, “Oh Meghan looks stunning ❤️.” Similarly, another fan swooned, “Meghan looks divine 🥺,” and another commented, “So beautiful - Meghan ❤️.”

Online users might have had a lot to say about Meghan and Prince Harry during their Florida trip, but this did not deter them from enjoying the festivities of the weekend. This included the Florida charity polo match that we previously reported on April 15, 2024.

Prince Harry and Meghan attended the match on April 12, 2024. The two looked stunning as they walked hand in hand and engaged with people present at the event.

Meghan exuded chic elegance in an ivory silk and hemp Heidi Merrick Ginger Dress, valued at $515, boasting a cheeky cut-out section ideal for the warm Wellington, Florida climate. She styled her ensemble with beige Aquazzura heels and vintage Chanel jewelry.

Meghan Markle's entire look was completed with Heidi Merrick's oversized Santa Barbara sunglasses, a white crossbody Valentino purse, and a small model, quartz movement, yellow gold Tank Française watch.

Prince Harry was in a smart casual look made up of white trousers, a light blue shirt, and a beige coat, completed with loafers and sunglasses. However, it was Meghan's dress, which caught the attention of online users.

Users quickly expressed their disapproval of Meghan's outfit, citing it as a fashion miss. "So tacky," a user wrote. Another user voiced their disappointment, "No bra, cut out dress and stilettos at the polo. Just no dress sense or class."

One unimpressed user commented, "Her hair is greasy, bad fake tan and that outfit is not appropriate and wrinkled again." Still, Meghan's fans hailed her appearance, "Meghan looks fantastic!" "She looks beautiful," a fan concurred.

During this event, Prince Harry competed against his longtime friend Ignacio in the Royal Salute Polo Challenge, an event that supports Sentebale. The 39-year-old wore a blue jersey and white riding pants for the two polo matches he played in.

Sentebale, led by Prince Harry, clinched victory in the first match with a narrow 1-0 win, despite the Duke of Sussex not contributing any points. In the ensuing match against Ignacio's team, Prince Harry scored a point, ultimately securing the team's triumph and crowning them champions.

Meghan was delighted to present the trophy to Prince Harry after his team's win. However, during the photo shoot, an awkward moment occurred that had tongues wagging online. Meghan asked a woman to change positions from her husband's side to hers when photos were being taken.

The woman, Dr Sophie Chandauka is the Chair of the Board at Sentebale. The Zimbabwean-born executive has served on the Sentebale Board from 2009 to 2015.

So, online users pointed out the uncomfortable moment when Meghan asked Sophie to step away from Prince Harry's side to hers. Sophie stood next to Meghan as the Duchess of Sussex positioned herself in the middle of the group and next to her husband.

During this interaction, Prince Harry kept his hands around Meghan as she spoke to Sophie. She motioned Sophie to the other side, saying, "Do you want to come over here?" A user, shocked by Meghan's attitude towards Sophie, asked, "Why is she humiliating a beautiful black woman?"

Another also questioned, "Why did Meghan Markle push the beautiful Black lady around?" A user pointed out that Meghan, "has such a superiority complex, it’s literally so smugly awful, and so so embarrassing 😳." "Shameful," noted an individual.

One user compared Meghan and Prince Harry to Princess Catherine and Prince William. "I find this tacky…William and Catherine are restrained in public. It’s classy. This is just crass," the user wrote. "That was so awkward," an individual shared.

A fan came to Meghan's defense, revealing that she had no ill intentions, "No, Meghan suggested as the chair for her to be in the middle of the picture… and it worked out perfectly."

Aside from this drama, Meghan and Prince Harry's public display of affection for each other has online users swooning. When Meghan went to present the trophy to Prince Harry, the two sealed the Duke of Sussex's win with a passionate kiss.

A fan gushed, "Love these two! They genuinely seem happy! Love her dress too!" Another fan expressed their admiration for Meghan and Harry, "She's gorgeous. No wonder he fell in love with her." However, a fan not captivated by the kiss jotted, "Looks like those film kisses 😚🤣."

Meghan and Prince Harry's recent outing was definitely eventful. However, its aim was for a serious issue as the funds raised will be used to cover the needs of children and young people living in Lesotho, who are affected by poverty, inequality, and HIV/AIDS.

Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso of Lesotho co-founded Sentebale to help the southern African nation. Sentebale, derived from the Sesotho language of Lesotho, translates to "forget-me-not" and symbolizes a commitment to supporting and remembering vulnerable children in need.

Prince Harry and Meghan continue to advocate for social causes through their work even after stepping away from their royal duties as part of the Royal Family. The two have supported each other in their separate causes as seen in how Meghan was by her husband's side during the recent annual Polo Cup.
