Yes perhaps... anyway. Bail and his friends have told so much about Padme. Maybe they had images or even video's about her.
Probably there were documentaries about her as a queen on naboo on Aldaraans holo-discoverychannel or something. 😄
It was like Leia knew her because she had heard all this things over 20 years.
When I first saw Episode I, where Anakin gives Padmé the necklace, I thought "Hey! That's the necklace Leia had when she told Luke about their mother!"
When I rewatched Episode VI, I saw no necklace. I became convinced that it's because I was seeing the new version and they'd cut the necklace bit out. I swear I saw Leia wearing a necklace that looked much like that, yet older, back on the original VHS.
When I listened to the audio book, I got the impression it may have something to do with the necklace thing that anakin gave padme
I haven't even SEEN Episode III yet, but I heard about Amidala dying... and immediately said "Then how does Leia remember her?" which brought me back to having this necklace memory 😛
I could just be mental, but I swear.. 😉 Maybe I just have some psychic bond to fictional characters 🙁

Sorry, you're misremembering that... I've just watched a splitscreen version of ROTJ and she's not wearing a necklace in either the 1983 or the 2004 versions.
First appearance of Leia in the Endor village outfit
Leia talking to Luke
Then again, I know the feeling. For years I swore I had seen Luke jump up and cling onto the grate during the Rancor fight just because I had seen a picture of the cut scene in the novelization.
