It has been 20 years since the untimely death of Princess Diana. And now, her sons Prince William and Prince Harry are ready to pay tribute to their mother.
To mark the 20th anniversary of her death, her sons commissioned the statue as a tribute to her and said it’s time to “recognise her positive impact” at home and abroad.The statue will follow another memorial of Diana, The White Garden, which also lies in the palace and was completed during the spring.
Diana died in a car crash in Paris on August 31, aged just 36, and throughout the summer months, William and Harry have made sure to pay tribute to their mother. Speaking about the statue in January, the princes said: “It has been 20 years since our mother’s death and the time is right to recognise her positive impact in the UK and around the world with a permanent statue.
“Our mother touched so many lives. We hope the statue will help all those who visit Kensington Palace to reflect on her life and her legacy.” Last month, the princes took part in a documentary about her life which saw them look at old photos and reminisce about their childhood.‘Photos really, they never quite capture it’ – Sarah Jessica Parker shares sweet memories from recent trip to IrelandJosh Peck reveals he came ‘close’ to playing Edward in Twilight
