When it comes to royal bling, Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton both sport engagement rings that scream elegance—but which one’s got the bigger price tag?

The Duchess of Sussex and the Princess of Wales have dazzled us with their iconic sparklers, and fans can’t stop comparing.

Meghan’s engagement ring, designed by Prince Harry himself, hit the scene in 2017 when they got engaged.

It’s a stunner: a trilogy piece with a cushion-cut diamond from Botswana (around 3 carats) flanked by two smaller stones from Princess Diana’s collection, all set on a yellow gold band.

Experts peg its value between $150,000 and $350,000, depending on the diamond’s quality and market shifts. Harry’s personal touch—those Diana gems—adds sentimental weight, but the hefty center stone drives the price sky-high.

Kate’s ring, on the other hand, is a royal heirloom with serious history. Given to her by Prince William in 2010, it’s the famous 12-carat Ceylon sapphire once worn by Diana, surrounded by 14 solitaire diamonds in white gold.

Originally bought by Prince Charles for $50,000 in 1981, its value has soared thanks to its legacy and rarity—estimates now range from $300,000 to $500,000. That deep blue gem isn’t just a looker; it’s a piece of royal lore.

So, who wins the price war? It’s tricky. Kate’s ring likely edges out Meghan’s in raw dollar terms, especially with its larger carat size and historical boost.

But Meghan’s custom creation holds its own, with some jewelers arguing its modern design and unique backstory could fetch a premium today. On X, fans debate endlessly—some say Kate’s sapphire is priceless, others insist Meghan’s chic vibe trumps tradition.

In the end, it’s less about exact figures and more about what these rings represent. Meghan’s sparkler screams personal flair; Kate’s channels timeless royalty. Expensive? Absolutely—both are worth a fortune. But picking a winner? That’s a royal toss-up.
