The Queen hosted a special event on the 5th March 2019 to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the Investiture of the Prince of Wales (70). Prince Charles' wife, Camilla (71), attended the event at his side, wearing a very special piece of jewellery. The Express reported that she sported a 150-year-old brooch adorned with emeralds, diamonds and a single ruby, a piece that Diana had previously worn when visiting Austria in 1986.
