The YouTuber wore the choker with a Louis Vuittion dress, reports Entertainment Times.
Chamberlain is the ambassador of Cartier jewels. The Maharaja had commissioned Cartier to make the heirloom piece with the De Beers diamond as the centrepiece and it was completed around 1928.
It was famously known as the Patiala Necklace. It went missing for a certain period of time before reappearing in London and being “re-bought” by Cartier. However, the allegations of the choker having been “stolen” at some point have not so far been substantiated.
Below are a few reactions.
