In their whirlwind royal tour of Australasia, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been immersing themselves in all that Fiji has to offer.

From market visits to cover ceremonies, the couple has been making the most of their time in this beautiful country.

During their visit, they had the honor of meeting with First Lady Sorority Conrote, who presented Meghan with a stunning pearl necklace.

The official welcome from the First Lady of Fiji, Sirat Vaga Conrote, included the gift of an exquisite multi-colored 18-inch pearl necklace.

This was a fitting present, as Fiji is renowned for its beautiful pearls.

The necklace featured 37 high-grade, naturally multi-colored pearls sourced from the esteemed Jayhunter Pearls, a well-known pearl farm.

These pearls showcased a range of colors, from shimmering greens to magnificent bronzers, brilliant blues to gunmetal greys.

These pearls are incredibly rare and highly sought after by pearl connoisseurs worldwide.

They originate from the Savu Savu region and are produced by the Pink Totem Agne referral typical oyster, a subspecies of the black-lipped Tahitian oyster.

Their unique multi-colored tones make them truly special.

Ms. Hunter, speaking to the Fiji Sun, explained that this necklace perfectly embodies the Fijian government’s role in the 2017 United Nations Climate Change Conference.

It symbolizes their commitment to environmental sustainability and showcases the beauty of Fiji’s natural resources.

However, there was a slight misunderstanding when it came to the ownership of the necklace.

Back at the residence, Meghan was informed by royal staffers that she couldn’t keep the gift.

This news may have disappointed her, leading to some frustration.

But it is important to note that gifts received during official visits belong to the royal family and not the individual receiving them.

Rumors circulated that Meghan had insisted on keeping the necklace and even planned to sell off other wedding jewelry to support herself after a hypothetical divorce.

However, it seems that these rumors are unfounded as the late Queen had prohibited her from accessing the jewels, and Meghan has never had the opportunity to wear this stunning necklace.

In fact, she only has a few pieces of jewelry, including earrings and a bracelet from a former husband.

It is worth mentioning that certain gifts become the property of the crown rather than the individual.

This applies to official visits where members of the royal family represent the British monarchy.

Gifts received during such visits are considered part of the royal collection and cannot be sold unless they were specifically designated as personal gifts.

On a separate note, there have been reports of Meghan advertising her engagement ring from Harry for sale in Harper’s Bazaar.

However, it is important to approach these claims with caution, as the authenticity of such reports is uncertain.

Moreover, it is unlikely that Meghan would resort to selling personal items to fund her lifestyle, considering her position as a member of the royal family.

While Prince Harry has made certain changes to accommodate Meghan’s wishes, such as giving up hunting, it is important to remember that decisions regarding personal belongings should be made with consideration for family traditions.

In this case, the item in question, a handmade personal item gifted by Prince Philip, should have been returned to his grandfather or kept within the family by gifting it to a nephew or cousin.
