Queen Camilla marked her presence at Wimbledon 2026 by wearing a meaningful necklace, a gold disc pendant adorned with a central ruby, her birthstone. The reverse side of the pendant displays the initials "L," "F," "G," "L," and "E," representing her five grandchildren: Lola, Freddy, Gus, Louis, and Eliza.
Camilla's son, Tom Parker Bowles, is the father of Lola, aged 19, and Freddy, 16. Her daughter, Laura Lopes, is mother to Eliza, 18, and twins Gus and Louis, both 17. The Queen was seen wearing the necklace on Wednesday during the main events at the tennis tournament, where she sat in the royal box accompanied by her sister, Annabel Elliot. She opted for a blue midi dress and leather ballet flats for the occasion.
The sentimental piece has been a notable choice for the Queen on several significant occasions. She wore the ruby disc necklace for her first public appearance following King Charles' cancer diagnosis and again during her state visit to the Vatican in the fall. In a 2022 interview with British Vogue, Camilla shared her perspective on grandparenthood, stating, "You know the nice thing about being a grandmother is that you can spoil them occasionally, give them more of the things that their parents forbid them to have."
Complementing her outfit, Camilla also wore a pair of turquoise and diamond drop earrings. These earrings, featuring a diamond cluster stud followed by two turquoise cabochons with diamond accents, have been a recurring accessory since at least 1998. She was first seen wearing them at a celebration for King Charles' 50th birthday that year. The Queen has worn these earrings numerous times since, pairing them with various ensembles for events ranging from state dinners to musical performances and award ceremonies.
Camilla later wore the same necklace on Thursday, this time paired with an animal-print shirtdress from designer Fiona Clare, for a visit to the London Zoo with King Charles.
