Prince William has given a pair of his mother's earrings to new wife Kate.
The Duchess of Cambridge wore the diamond and sapphire gems during the couple's official visit to Canada and America.
Kate, 29, had Diana's heavy studs remodelled into drop earrings and wore them for the first time when she watched Andy Murray from the Royal Box at Wimbledon last month.
Favourite: Kate wore the remodelled earrings on tour in Canada and Diana was regularly spotted wearing the jewellery
The earrings were thought to be among Diana's most precious jewels and she was spotted wearing them at dozens of events during the 1980s and 1990s.
A courtier told the Sunday Mirror: 'Now they're married William wanted her to have some of his mother's favourite pieces.'
It is not the first time the Duchess' style has been compared with the late Princess Diana's.
Comparisons: From the Duchess' wedding day commentators were already comparing the couple to Princess Diana and Prince Charles
Kate wore a similar outfit to that of Princess Diana when she visited Canada by donning a maple leaf hat.
Both sported red hats with white dresses during their official visits but Princess Diana made a slightly bolder statement by wearing a matching red scarf.
Crowds across the globe were eager to make comparisons as Diana and Charles made a similar tour in 1983.
The People's Princess: Diana devoted her time to charity work..
And Kate was seen to be equally interested in speaking to people on the official Canada tour, doing impromptu walkabouts
Princess Diana was the main attraction with thousands of people waved flags and shouted the slogan 'We Want Di'.
And Prince William's new wife was also a real crowd pleaser and her wardrobe had been one of the main topics of discussion.
The couple are currently deciding on a permanent London base, and are tipped to take Apartment 1a in Kensington Palace, a lavish 19-room suite that was once the home of the late Princess Margaret.
It was reported the couple also considered Apartments 8 and 9, the former marital home of Charles and Diana where William grew up, but Kate is said to have been uncomfortable with the idea.
'They have been to look around Margaret's apartment and like it very much,' said a source.
