When Prince Harry proposed to Meghan Markle in 2017, the engagement ring he designed carried deep sentimental value. The ring featured a three-carat cushion-cut diamond, sourced from Botswana — a country of personal significance to the couple. As Harry had explained in a 2017 interview, “The little diamonds on either side are from my mother’s jewelry collection to make sure she’s with us on this crazy journey together.” Meghan echoed the sentiment, saying the ring “sort of links where you come from and Botswana, which is important to us, it’s perfect.” The design was completed with a gold band by Cleave and Company.
Earlier Alterations
Markle’s engagement ring underwent its first noticeable transformation in 2019. The original band was swapped for a much thinner, yellow gold version, adorned with micro-pavé diamonds. According to royal experts Carolyn Durand and Omid Scobie, the alteration was Prince Harry’s idea, demonstrating his thoughtfulness.

Lorraine Schwartz, the jeweler behind the changes, reportedly praised Harry for being “the loveliest person ever. So romantic, so thoughtful.” In addition, Harry and Meghan commissioned Schwartz to create an eternity band with birthstones for the couple and their son, Archie.
