Whereas Prince William has never worn a wedding ring, Prince Harry was keen to design the perfect piece of jewellery to celebrate his marriage with Meghan Markle
Both 39-year-old Prince Harry and 42-year-old Meghan Markle are well known for going against the royal grain. While deliberating over his wedding ring back in 2018, the Duke of Sussex decided not to follow the lead of either his brother Prince William or his dad King Charles - choosing to forge his own path instead.
"He’s not one for jewellery,” the source said. "He's never worn any. He decided he didn’t want to wear one now. It's all down to personal preference." Much like his grandson, the late Prince Phillip also opted not to wear a ring during his 73-year-long marriage to The Queen. While his choice left some surprised, for royals deciding on rings today, it is much more about personal preference than tradition. According to reports, Harry was after a more modern and sleek design for the special piece of jewellery.
