Kate Middleton is walking in Queen Elizabeth's fashion footsteps.
The Princess of Wales joined Prince William, King Charles, Queen Camilla and more members of the royal family on Saturday for a lunch reception at Buckingham Palace. They hosted governors-general of the Commonwealth nations who traveled to London for the late monarch's state funeral on Monday.
Kate, 40, paid homage to Queen Elizabeth in her jewelry choices. She wore a three-strand pearl necklace that belonged to the Queen, Buckingham Palace confirms. The necklace was a go-to piece for the record-breaking monarch.
In PEOPLE's latest issue, the Queen's former assistant private secretary, Sam Cohen, explained of the monarch: "She wasn't interested in material things at all. She wore the same pearl necklace every day."
Kate also wore a pair of pearl and diamond earrings that previously belonged to the Queen — in fact, it was the fourth time since the monarch's death that Kate was spotted sporting the pieces. ........

Middleton is clearly laying claim to be the “heir”if you will, in a metaphorical sense.

I don't think she needs to "lay claim". She's been the "heir" since she married William. Everyone can see that she's meant to be!

She is lovely. I can’t say much for Charles, but the monarchy is in good hands when he passes on.

I don't keep up much with monarchy things, but I am guessing Kate never bothered to take her husband's last name. Mountbatten-Windsor I guess is the surname (when used).

She still has to assert her “ownership” of that position. She’s also indicating continuity with E2.
