Eagle-eyed royal fans spotted a touching tribute to Princess Diana in Meghan Markle‘s outfit during the first day of royal tour duties in Sydney, Australia.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex started the day at Admiralty House before heading to Taronga Zoo and then meeting thousands of royal fans lined up outside the Opera House.

Meghan looked stunning in an ivory Karen Gee dress, but it was her jewelry that drew special attention.

The pregnant duchess chose to wear Princess Diana’s butterfly earrings and matching bracelet in a lovely tribute to Prince Harry‘s late mother.

Diana was photographed wearing the jewels during a trip to Canada with Prince Charles in May 1986, just after Harry was born.

This is not the first time the couple have made sure to include Diana. Meghan’s engagement ring, which was designed by Prince Harry, also bears a nod to Diana.

“The little diamonds either side are from my mother’s jewelry collection to make sure that she’s with us on this — on this crazy journey together,” Prince Harry said in the couple’s joint interview after their engagement.
