The ownership of jewellery that Diana received as wedding presents is not cut & dried as them being her personal property. If given by non family then they were gifts to the Princess of Wales not Diana Spencer. Had she been marrying Joe Bloggs then these people would not have presented gifts. I would say that they will be held in trust for William and Harry but the bulk will, in due course, become part of the jewels to be worn by future Princesses of Wales. It would be interesting to look back at how many of these pieces Diana wore subsequent to her divorce.
