Prince William and Prince Harry have carried on Princess Diana’s legacy since she died on August 31, 1997.
William and Harry were 15 and 12, respectively, when the Princess of Wales died at age 36 after sustaining injuries in a car crash in Paris. Since then, they’ve fondly looked back at the time they shared with her through the years.
The royal family members stewarded the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund and have given back to humanitarian charities like their famous mom once did. In 2017, the brothers commissioned a statue to commemorate what would have been the 20th anniversary of Diana’s death. It wasn’t for another four years, however, that the statue was officially unveiled.
Both princes have made it their mission to preserve their mother’s legacy, even through the next generation of royals. In May 2015, William and wife Princess Kate Middleton welcomed their second child, Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, and six years later, Harry paid tribute to their mother with the arrival of his own daughter, Lilibet Diana Mountbatten-Windsor. Though their mother isn’t around to meet her grandchildren, both William and Harry have ensured that their kids know how special Diana was.
