Kate Middleton hosts royal event wearing necklace with 'hidden' meaning amid Prince Harry furore

Kate Middleton has alerted jewellery experts by wearing a necklace for a royal engagement which they claim carried a 'hidden meaning,' amid the furore her brother-in-law Prince Harry has caused with his explosive memoir.

Kate, Princess of Wales, was kept busy last week by hosting a reception at at Hampton Court for England’s Wheelchair Rugby League team, to celebrate their November victory against France in the World Cup. Her appearance came less than a fortnight after the release of Harry's book Spare and broadcast of his much hyped ITV interview and the various bombshells thrown up in them, including claims of an altercation between Harry and Kate's husband Prince William, during a row over Meghan Markle.

The worldwide attention for Spare came hot on the heels of Harry and Meghan's Netflix series, which saw Meghan paint Kate as 'cold' after their first meeting, saying: "When Will and Kate came over, and I met her for the first time, they came over for dinner, I remember I was in ripped jeans and I was barefoot. I was a hugger. I've always been a hugger, I didn't realise that that is really jarring for a lot of Brits."
