After six years, Kate Middleton has finally done what some said she couldn't; she finally got her proposal from Prince William, heir to Britain's throne. Proposing in Kenya, after asking her father's permission, Prince William gave Kate the 18 carat sapphire and diamond stunner that was last seen on the finger of his late mother, Princess Diana. William said that in giving Kate his mother's ring, he made sure she, "didn't miss out on today." The sapphire ring is gorgeous, yet untraditional in that the center stone isn't a diamond. This is fitting, being that couple's relationship wasn't your typical royal romance.
Once called the Stone of Destiny, the sapphire seems like a fitting choice for the untraditional bride.
