Kate Middleton wears Kiki McDonough’s Yellow Citrine Cushion Drop Earrings.
She’s owned the yellow gemstone earrings for nine years. We first spotted her wearing the earrings at the 2013 Cheltenham Festival (pictured above).
She’s only worn the citrine drops four times in public since. To visit the Action for Children charity in Wales in Feb 2017, to depart Jamaica in March 2022, to visit the Streets of Growth charity in September 2023, and to visit a naval air base in Somerset in 2023.
Kate owns three other pairs of Kiki Cushion Drops, in pink morganite, white topaz and green amethyst (pictured below). She must love the simplicity and versatility of the style.
About the earrings:
The earrings feature vibrant, sunny yellow citrine stones suspended from gold diamond-studded hoops. They’re sparkly and bright without being too flashy—perfect for wearing to work, on a date, to dinner, to a wedding…. The Citrine Cushion Drops are set in 18ct yellow gold. Wear the gold hoops alone or add the citrine cushions, giving two looks in one.

About Kiki McDonough:
Kiki McDonough is famous for her striking colour combinations and timeless wearable designs. Kiki only uses 18ct gold/white gold for her jewellery.
In November 2014, Kiki McDonough gave an interview to the Daily Mail Online about the Duchess wearing her earrings. She said:
‘She wears my pieces as they should be worn. She obviously enjoys wearing colour on her ears as opposed to pearls and diamonds all the time.’
[Kate] is a busy working mother like me, and I design jewellery that goes with that lifestyle. My designs have always reflected the way we live now, dashing from work to an event.‘I will quite often keep the same pair of earrings on for a week and they go with me wherever I am going (from the theatre to a football match) and that seems to be something that my clients appreciate.’
