Catherine, Princess of Wales (aka Kate Middleton) stands alongside some royal family members outside of Westminster Abbey for the State Funeral of Queen Elizabeth II on Monday (September 19) in London, England. The Princess was joined by two of her kids, Prince George, 9, and Princess Charlotte, 7, as well as her husband, Prince William, among other members of the royal family. Her parents, Michael and Carole Middleton, were also in attendance at the sorrowful event. At the event, the Princess wore two pieces of jewelry that once belonged to her grandmother-in-law. The two pieces of jewelry with significance are the choker necklace and the pearl drop earrings. The necklace was previously worn by the Queen in a state banquet back in 1983. The Queen also loaned the necklace to Princess Diana for a state visit to the Netherlands in 1982. The Bahrain Pearl Drop Earrings were a gift to the Queen for her wedding to Prince Philip in 1947.
