Kate Middleton swaps her wedding ring for a new ‘eternity ring’ and re-wears an old Ralph Lauren t-shirt as she sends a congratulatory message to Team GB

The Princess of Wales showed off a new ‘eternity band’ last night and wore an old Ralph Lauren T-shirt as she sent a congratulatory message to Team GB.

The 42-year-old royal appeared alongside the 42-year-old Prince of Wales in a star-studded video shared on the couple’s Instagram yesterday.

For the encouraging video, the mother of three wore a black and white striped top by Ralph Lauren.

The designer top, which originally retailed for £85, has been a staple in Kate’s wardrobe since 2013.

The royal was first spotted wearing the long-sleeved T-shirt while grocery shopping in Anglesey in August 2013 and wore it two months later at an official SportAid charity event at the Olympic Park in London.

In the congratulations video, Kate wore minimal jewelry – opting for a thin silver choker-style necklace and no earrings.

The princess was also seen with a new ring on her wedding ring finger, leading royal fans to speculate that it was an eternity ring.

The thick gold ring appeared to be set with diamonds and sapphires, matching the Queen’s engagement ring that once belonged to Princess Diana.

One commented on the Royal Fashion Police’s Instagram post: “The sapphire anniversary/eternity ring is a beautiful alternative to her engagement ring.”

“Nice to have a ring with a lower profile for casual everyday wear.”

Another added in response: “I think it’s beautiful and probably a more appropriate everyday ring.”

Another added: “This sapphire strap looks much more practical for everyday wear and is definitely pretty.”

The Prince and Princess of Wales celebrated their 13th wedding anniversary this year and marked the occasion with the release of a new black-and-white portrait from their wedding.

In March, the Princess of Wales announced in an emotional video message that she was undergoing cancer treatment and had rarely appeared in public since then.

In June, Kate took part in the Trooping the Colour celebrations in London and recently watched the Wimbledon men’s singles final with Princess Charlotte.

The beaming video of Kate and William came shortly after a heartfelt statement from King Charles III in which he called all Olympians “an inspiration.”

In his message, which came just hours before the final moments of the Olympic Games in the French capital, the monarch congratulated them on their “outstanding achievements” and highlighted their “raw talent, true determination and hard work”.

In the viral video, which has already received more than 450,000 likes, former England captain and football icon David Beckham also sent a message of support.
