Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World

Gold, silver, and bronze have been on everyone’s minds this Olympic season, and Queen Letizia of Spain made a major metallic statement in a shimmering silver dress and sparkling earrings in Mallorca on Sunday.

Two weeks ago, Queen Camilla celebrated her birthday, but the article I had planned to mark that occasion had to be pushed back because of the State Opening of Parliament and various other current events. So today, let’s now have a look at one of the Queen’s most treasured personal jewels: her diamond serpent necklace.

The Olympic sparkle continued in Paris on Friday, as royals from across Europe attended the grand opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Games along the Seine in Paris.

Luminaries from around the globe have converged on Paris, where the 2024 Summer Olympic Games kicked off on Friday with a sparkling opening ceremony on the Seine. On the eve of that celebration, many familiar royal faces were in attendance at a glittering gala at the Louvre Museum.

Today, the eyes of the world will be on Paris, where the opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Olympic Games will be held. There will be plenty of dignitaries and talented athletes present for the occasion, but I’m not sure anything can top a royal moment from the 2012 Opening Ceremony, featuring Queen Elizabeth II, James Bond, a helicopter, and some truly fabulous royal diamonds.
