Princess Anne wore £4m tiara years before her wedding – but Beatrice & Eugenie had to wait

When Princess Anne visited Austria in 1969 with her parents, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, the royal wore a stunning headpiece.

Deborah Papas, from Prestige Pawnbrokers of Channel 4’s Posh Pawn, previously spoke to Express.co.uk about Princess Andrew’s Meander Bandeau.

She said: “This is the most glamorous piece from Princess Anne’s stunning jewellery collection. ‘Something borrowed’ does not escape the Royal Family!”

According to the expert, this tiara, which Zara later wore for her 2011 wedding to Mike Tindall, belonged to Princess Andrew of Greece and Denmark – the mother of the late Duke of Edinburgh.
