Kim Kardashian Purchases Diamond Cross Necklace Previously Worn By Princess Diana

Kim Kardashian appears to be adding another late icon’s belongings to her personal collection! According to TMZ, Kim just obtained a beautiful Diamond cross necklace that was previously worn by Princess Diana.

Kim was able to purchase the “Attalah Cross” during the Sotheby’s auction for almost $200k.

The infamous necklace was worn by Princess Diana after the Garrad Jewelry company loaned it to her for a London charity gala in 1987. Since then, it has been in possession of the auction house and now Kim is the rightful owner after submitting the winning bid.

This lavish necklace will be added to her collection of infamous memorabilia, including items from Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Jackson, Jackie O, and Marilyn Monroe.

Princess Diana was the first wife of King Charles III (then Prince of Wales) and mother of Princes William and Harry. Her activism and glamour made her an international icon, and earned her enduring popularity.

As Princess of Wales, Diana undertook royal duties on behalf of the Queen and represented her at functions across the Commonwealth realms. She was celebrated in the media for her unconventional approach to charity work.

Diana’s death in a car crash in Paris in 1997 led to extensive public mourning and global media attention. An inquest returned a verdict of “unlawful killing” following Operation Paget, an investigation by the Metropolitan Police. Her legacy has had a deep impact on the royal family and British society.
