Princess Charlotte attended the Wimbledon 2026 men's singles final wearing a gold shell charm bracelet, a style also favored by her late grandmother, Princess Diana.
The 11-year-old's bracelet, a $32 gold-plated piece from Accessorize sold at Marks & Spencer, has since sold out. Charlotte was seen wearing the bracelet while watching the match from the Royal Box alongside her parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton, and older brother Prince George.
Princess Diana also possessed a cherished charm bracelet, which was a wedding gift from Prince Charles in 1981. Over their first 10 anniversaries, Charles added a new charm each year, each carrying personal significance. These included charms representing ballet shoes, a polo cap, and a tiny pig, along with initials "W" and "H" for her sons, Princes William and Harry.
Diana reportedly kept this bracelet largely out of public view, with one of the few documented occasions being in November 1984. She is believed to have stopped wearing it after her marriage to Prince Charles ended.
This is not the first time Princess Charlotte has shown an affinity for charm bracelets. At the 2025 Wimbledon final, she wore a Pandora bracelet adorned with personalized charms, including one of Nala from "The Lion King," a film previously mentioned by Prince William as a favorite in their household. Charlotte's 2025 selection also featured an eternity circle charm and an engraved disc.
Notably, Princess Diana's own charm bracelet reportedly included a small tennis racket charm, a detail that would have been particularly fitting at the Wimbledon tournament.
