The Duke paired his gray suit with two bracelets that hold a lot of meaning. The bracelet that he often has on his arm is carved in metal. It supposedly traces back to his trip to Africa after Princess Diana’s death. The other band made up of beads is similar to the one that Markle often wears during their public appearances.
