10 Discreet Tributes Princes William and Harry Have Paid to Their Mother Princess Diana

Princes William and Harry seem to have inherited the selfless heart of their mother, Princess Diana. But the eternal Lady Di does not appear only in these attitudes. The children make it possible for her to be there for many moments of their lives with discreet tributes that make it clear how much they miss her and how much they would love for her to be there for them.

O awesome.club gathered some examples of beautiful tributes that the princes paid to their late mother, who will be forever present in their hearts and in all of us.

Princess Diana was also present during the engagement, which was announced with photos of the couple in the Sunken Gardens at Kensington Palace. Months earlier, in that same spot, white flowers were planted in honor of the 20th anniversary of the death of the Princess of Wales.

One of the most remembered photos of Princess Diana is the one in which she appears in front of the Taj Mahal, in India, in 1992. Lady Di is sitting on a bench with the palace in the background. Many years later, in 2016, during a visit that Prince William and Kate Middleton made to the country, the couple was photographed in the same place, clearly paying homage to the princess. In addition, people who were present said that the prince was thrilled to be in the same place where his mother was so many years ago.

A few months before her death, Princess Diana started working with the organization MAG (Mines Advisory Group), which fights to raise awareness of minefields in the world. Very interested in the subject, Lady Di traveled to Angola and was in dangerous places with a special outfit, an image that left the world very impressed.

Committed to the causes that his mother defended, in 2010 Prince Harry traveled to Mozambique to work with THE HALO Trust, an organization that works along the same lines as MAG. Like his mother, he’s been in a minefield and has worn the same outfit as hers.

In the royal family, baby names are a very serious matter. Before being announced, it needs to be approved by the Queen. It was she who authorized Prince William to name his daughter Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, a tribute the prince wanted to do.

It is a sapphire and diamond alliance valued at more than 1.6 million reais. It is a unique piece of jewelry that was made especially for Prince Charles to propose to Diana. The heir to the alliance was Prince Harry, but he had no problem giving the piece to his brother when he talked about his engagement to Kate Middleton. Kate wears the ring to this day.

But don’t think that only Prince William honored his mother when he got married. The ring that Prince Harry gave to Meghan Markle was made with two diamonds from Lady Di’s personal collection. They accompany an even bigger jewel that the prince acquired in Botswana, the country where the 2 children and Prince Charles stayed when Lady Di died and which represents a second home for them (this was commented on in several interviews).

One of Princess Diana’s strongest humanitarian works was her fight to raise awareness about HIV worldwide and especially in African countries, which were devastated by AIDS in the 80s and 90s. Like his mother, Prince Harry fights to dispel myths about the disease and make sure that infected people can be treated and receive the proper medication and treatment.

One of the causes that Prince William defends refers to prejudices regarding mental illness. Firstly, because he knows how difficult it is to suffer from emotional problems. The prince had to face difficult times when his mother died and when he was a pilot in the Royal Force. In addition, he knows how his mother experienced complicated situations that led her to depression and bulimia. For this, William participates in campaigns with his wife and always talks with young people about how important it is to ask for help when they feel alone and vulnerable.

During the christening of Prince Louis, Prince William’s third son, the song Prelude on Rhosymedre was played. It was also heard at Princess Diana’s wedding in 1981. This was one of the most moving moments for those present, who noticed the prince’s subtle tribute to his parents, and especially to his mother, who was present through the melody.
