Princess Margaret's Granddaughter Wears Iconic Engagement Ring for King's Coronation

In November 2025, Lady Margarita Armstrong-Jones, the 23-year-old daughter of Princess Margaret's son David, opened up about inheriting her grandmother's iconic engagement ring. Margarita, who is currently studying jewelry design in Italy, received the ruby ring from her father on her 21st birthday.

The young royal finds the ring's unique "Marguerite" shape and floral motif deeply meaningful, as it shares her name. Margarita plans to wear the heirloom to King Charles' coronation in May 2023, which will take place in the same Westminster Abbey where her grandmother, Princess Margaret, married in 1960.

Though Margarita's own jewelry designs are "quite animalistic, quite raw and organic," she believes her grandmother would have appreciated the natural motifs and bold style. Princess Margaret was known for her love of costume jewelry and statement pieces, often buying accessories on the beach to wear to grand state occasions.

As Margarita continues to honor her royal heritage, she cherishes the opportunity to carry on her grandmother's legacy through the dazzling engagement ring, which she only wears on the most special of events.
