With the necklace, he no longer only associates good memories …
The currently very busy one Prince Harry (38) endowed the US talk show “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert“ on Tuesday from a visit. In addition to jokes about the Queen († 96) and tequila shots, serious topics were also discussed in the conversation – such as Harry’s tangible argument with brother William (40).
The incident: In 2019, William is said to have his younger brother with a violent argument to the ground. In its Biography “Spare” (Eng.: “Reserve”) Harry writes: “William grabbed my collar, yanked my necklace and threw me to the ground.” The chain broke in the process. According to him, Harry even suffered injuries to his back because he landed on a dog bowl that broke under him.
Moderator Stephen Colbert (58) spoke to Harry about this explosive incident in his biography: “It says here that he broke your necklace. Which necklace was it that he broke?” The Duke of Sussex had the piece to hand, of course, but replied: “This one, which is now repaired.”
Harry reached around his neck and revealed a black cord with three charms attached – and which, as he explained a moment later, hold great meaning for Harry. He said to two silver followers: “Here are the heartbeats of my children on it” – his wife Meghan (41) gave him the followers. The cardiograms of Archie (3) and Lilibet (1) are engraved on the jewellery.
The third pendant with a mineral, a tiger’s eye, was made for him by a friend of his from Botswana. In astrology, the Tiger Eye is an important stone for Harry’s Virgo zodiac sign.
Is showing off the chain supposed to be evidence in the dispute with William?
► Harry’s chain can be seen from minute 19 in the video below.
Colbert continued, “If your mother were still alive, how would you have dealt with this incident…?” Harry interrupted, “We wouldn’t have gotten to this point.”
Of course, it’s impossible to say what the relationship between the brothers would be like if Diana († 36) had not died. “But the distance between my brother and I would never have been the same.”
Unfortunately, a brother relationship is not as easy to fix as a chain.
Meghan’s chain symbolism
That Harry his chain of Meghan was not surprised: the Duchess has repeatedly shown her love for special pieces of jewelry. Her delicate chains often have a secret message of love.
► Two of her chains show the constellations of Taurus (for Archie) and Gemini (Lilibet) – made of 14k gold and diamonds for around 1500 euros.
► During the 2018 interview with Oprah Winfrey (68), Meghan wore an eye-catching necklace with three light blue, pear-shaped aquamarine gemstones. They symbolize Harry, son Archie and herself. Lilibet was not yet born then.
► And already in 2016, when love was fresh and Meghan was still an actress in the series “Suits”, she wore a small “H” and an “M” around her neck. (salo)
