The Princess of Wales appears to have poignantly swapped her sapphire engagement ring for an eternity band in the video announcing she is cancer-free.
Kate, 42, appeared in the video alongside her family as she reflected on her experience with cancer and announced her return to “lighter” duties.
Eagle-eyed royal fans noticed that instead of wearing the engagement ring that once belonged to Princess Diana, Kate wore an eternity ring.
Now some have suggested this was a deliberate choice to reflect her “fresh start” now that her chemotherapy has come to an end.
The announcement comes amid claims that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are planning their third overseas trip of the year.
A source said Hello! magazine that the couple intend to visit Lesotho or Botswana as possible next destinations.
This is where Harry's charity, Sentebale, operates and it has been some time since he last visited the countries in 2019.
Founded in 2006, Sentebale helps young people come to terms with their HIV/AIDS diagnosis.

Kate Middleton swaps Princess Diana's ring for an eternity ring in a cancer-fighting ad
The Princess of Wales appears to have poignantly chosen to wear an eternity ring in the video announcing that she is cancer-free.
Kate, 42, wore the silver band instead of her sapphire engagement ring that once belonged to Princess Diana in the joyful video with her family.
Royal fans have now suggested this was a deliberate choice to reflect a “fresh start” for the princess now that her chemotherapy has come to an end.
It has also been suggested that the ring was changed due to chemotherapy-related weight changes the princess may have experienced.
For those wondering about the Princess of Wales' ring, what I believe it is is a temporary replacement for her larger sapphire ring. With chemotherapy, people's weight tends to fluctuate, therefore ring sizes change. I imagine she doesn't want to resize the original ring (since it's priceless). image.twitter.com/Mpn5NcwgMD

The Duchess of Sussex has come under fire for appearing at a book club event with Oprah Winfrey on the anniversary of the late Queen Elizabeth II's death.
As reported by the ExpressRoyal commentator Richard Fitzwilliam described the California appearance as a “terrible mistake”.
He said: “I think it was an absolutely terrible choice of venue to perform, especially on a very special anniversary.
“I mean, we all know that when Meghan and Harry did the interview on Oprah, which is infamous.
“Although they had not planned it, Prince Philip was in hospital when the interview was broadcast. We know that he died shortly afterwards.
“We also know that the interview was like exploding a nuclear weapon in the courtyard of Buckingham Palace.
“What is remembered is that the Queen’s comments, ‘some recollections may vary’, sum it up very well. But it was an absolutely distasteful place to be.
“We know that Meghan and Oprah are friends, but to see them in a place that brought back memories of that interview on that anniversary is just extraordinary.”
