Queen Camilla is spotted wearing an evil eye bracelet to ward off negative energy, as is Meghan Markle – amid Omid Scobie’s claim she is not in a relationship with her daughter-in-law

If Omid Scobie’s new book is to be believed, relations between Queen Camilla and her daughter-in-law Meghan Markle are quite frosty, but they have one thing in common when it comes to jewelry.

In recent weeks, Camilla, 76, has worn an evil eye bracelet at a host of royal engagements, as has Meghan, 42.

For her most recent appearance at the Booker Prize Foundation reception held at Clarence House, King Charles’ wife paired her signature Van Cleef & Arpels jewels with an intricate evil eye design.

Although it is not clear where Camilla purchased her bracelet, the delicate gold chain features small turquoise beads, mother-of-pearl stars and the evil eye motif.

With a history spanning thousands of years, this symbol is believed to ward off negative energy from those around you – and the release of Omid Scobie’s book, Endgame, may provide insight into why both royals are adorned with this motif.

The Duchess of Sussex is known for her penchant for symbolic jewelry, as she has previously worn numerous necklaces and bracelets decorated with the evil eye.

However, last week she debuted a new addition to her collection — the Lorraine Schwartz Against Evil Eye Diamond Pave bracelet — at a Vancouver Canucks ice hockey game with Prince Harry.

The bracelet, which costs a whopping £14,902.41, is made from 18-carat white gold, with a total of 23.66 carats of blue topaz, 1.86 carats of white diamonds and 0.06 carats of black diamonds. According to the designer, it is “supposed to protect individuals from the envy of others.”

The concept of the evil eye is thousands of years old and is based on the belief that others have the ability to harm you. Wearing an evil eye talisman is a way to protect yourself.

Evil eye amulets, typically blue, are known as ‘Nazar’, which translates from Arabic as ‘sight and attention’.

Meghan Markle joins a number of celebrities, including Jennifer Aniston and Gigi Hadid, in bringing the symbol back into the spotlight by wearing evil eye-inspired jewelry.

Prince Harry’s wife showed off her latest bracelet for the second time on November 22 during a visit to the Justice For Girls charity in Vancouver.

It comes amid claims Queen Camilla has no relationship with the Sussexes, according to Omid Scobie’s new book Endgame.

Although the queen has “great sympathy” for what Meghan went through, a royal source told the author that she has “no respect for the way they handled themselves,” according to the book.

Conversely, while her relationships with Harry, 39, and Meghan, 42, are non-existent, the book claims that Camilla and her husband, King Charles, now enjoy “laugh-filled” lunches, just like William and Kate.
