As Prince William and Kate Middleton turned up the glitter at Boston’s Fenway Park for their spectacular Earthshot Prize ceremony on Friday night, they struck a home run.
According to Page Six, a US-based entertainment media portal, Kate Middleton accessorised her floor-length Solace London gown with earrings from her personal collection and an emerald choker that belonged to her mother-in-law, the late Princess Diana.
A well-known piece of royal jewellery–the emerald-and-diamond choker necklace was worn by Princess Diana frequently. She even wore it as a headband once in 1985.
The royal couple attended the awards event, which is a passion project for William, to cap off the last three hectic days in the US.
Billie Eilish, Chloe x Halle, and Annie Lennox, all gave performances during the ceremony, while William’s longtime friend and former England soccer player David Beckham, who came in from London to present a trophy, also made a surprise visit, as per Page Six.
Ellie Golding gave a surprise performance for the Prince and Princess of Wales at the award event. The British singer also sang at their 2011 wedding.
The Earthshot Prize, today one of the most renowned environmental awards in the world, was established by William in 2020 and was motivated by former US President John F. Kennedy’s famous “Moonshot” challenge. Its goal is to find innovative ways to combat climate change.
