Will uses Diana’s ring to propose

PRINCE William revealed tonight he proposed using the engagement ring of his mother Diana, Princess of Wales, to make sure she “didn’t miss out on the excitement”.

William and his long-term girlfriend, Kate Middleton, got engaged on holiday in Kenya last month and will marry next year.

Middleton, showing off the distinctive blue sapphire engagement ring alongside her husband-to-be last night, told reporters that joining the Royal Family was a “daunting prospect”.
