<p id=”par-1_49″>The royal family has <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/royal-family-owns-jewelry-worth-150000-heres-who-inherited-it.html/”>a massive jewelry collection</a>. Although it’s hard to pinpoint the collection’s exact worth due to there being certain pieces that can’t be priced or that we might not even know about, the collection is best estimated at a value between $1.2 billion and $5.8 billion.</p>
<p id=”par-2_47″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/kate-middleton/”>Kate Middleton</a>, the Princess of Wales and the future queen of the United Kingdom, has access to many of the most expensive jewels within the family. And she recently stepped out in a pair of earrings that cost more than what some people make in a year.</p>

<p id=”par-3_89″>Prince William and Kate Middleton are two of the royal family’s most important members. Not only is William a direct heir to the throne, but the public has watched him grow up, and people have tuned in to his love story with Kate since he was just a young boy in college. As a result, the public has fallen in love with Kate as well, and the two are certainly paving the way to bring even more popularity back to the royal family when they become king and queen.</p>
<p id=”par-4_86″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kate-middleton-team-growing-frustrated-fashion-focus-more-important-issues.html/”>Kate’s fashion has been a talking point</a> for years. Even since she was dating William, Kate has always been photographed in clothes that later sell out at local stores. (The couple’s daughter, Princess Charlotte, has had a similar effect on children’s clothing). But people won’t be so quick to buy the princess’ pearl earrings that she recently wore while attending the annual Commonwealth Day service. According to <a href=”https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/2023936/Princess-Kate-Collingwood-earrings”>Express</a>, the Collingwood Pearl Drop earrings are worth between $38,000 and $45,000. The earrings previously belonged to Princess Diana.</p>
<p id=”par-5_38″>The earrings contain a diamond stud as well as a pearl drop, and while these specific earrings aren’t affordable, there was a similar pair by Ralph Lauren for much less — but, you guessed it, they’ve sold out.</p>

<p id=”par-6_45″>The Princess of Wales is no stranger to nice things, and her jewelry collection will only increase in value as she moves up in the royal hierarchy. While the pearl earrings are costly, they don’t compare to some of the other pieces that Kate owns.</p>
<p id=”par-7_72″>The princess inherited a necklace that had previously been gifted to Queen Elizabeth II back in 1947 as a gift from the Nizam of Hyderabad, Osman Ali Khan. The necklace, which has massive diamonds, is <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kate-middleton-expensive-royal-jewelry-worth-80-million.html/”>valued at $80 million</a>. If you thought the pearl earrings were expensive, then you’ll have to save for a pretty long time to get anywhere near an $80 million necklace. Of course, the necklace is technically priceless.</p>
