OlderPrince William & Harry Remember Diana
10 years after Diana, Princess of Wales, died in a car crash in Paris, Princes William and Harry remember their mother at a special ceremony at the Guards’ Chapel in London on Friday.
Leading the ceremony, Harry, 22, delivered a moving speech: “Behind the media glare, to us, just two loving children, she was quite simply the best mother in the world,” he said. “We would say that, wouldn’t we? But we miss her… she made us and so many other people happy.”
Diana’s elder son, William, 25, also spoke, reading from St Paul’s letter to the Ephesians.
Joining the princes at the private service were their grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, their father Prince Charles and about 500 guests, including Elton John, Cliff Richard and celebrity photographer Mario Testino, as well as Prime Minister Gordon Brown and former prime ministers Tony Blair and John Major. Charles’s wife Camilla decided not to attend amid criticism that it would be inappropriate for her to be there.

i miss her…if she was alive, she would have been the only celebrity with grace
Wonder where all the crying fans are this time around.
i miss her…if she was still alive, she would have been the only normal celebrity with grace
DIANA WAS SUCH A GREAT PERSON AND A MOTHER. SO SAD THAT SHE DIED
IN THAT WAY AND SO YOUNG. RIP.
I loved Diana and her children.
I will always despise Charles and that mule face azz Camilla,,and the Queen too,,cant stand them..
I want to **** Prince Harry!
princess anne shouldn’t have been there either since she always made fun of diana and wouldn’t bow her head when the hearse went by, thinking she was a royal and didn’t need to even though the queen did. whatever diana was she was a great mum.
The princes didn’t inherit their mom’s good looks.Sadly to say, Harry looks worst. But I admired Diana,i remember her when I was a kid. RIP
Not this time around.
IS IT ME OR IS HARRY GETTING HOTTER THAN WILLIAM?
BBperfume YOU MUST BE BLIND
I think Diana would be proud of the way her boys turned out. They don’t shy away but honor her as their mother not as a princess.
People go on and on about how Harry cannot be Prince Charles’ son because he supposedly looks so much like Hewitt…but look at picture #3 and the man standing by Harry could be his twin only older. Obviously a relative!
Okay, I’ve tried to post this twice if it doesn’t go through I give up!
Princess Diana was such a beautiful and giving woman. I think we can all learn something from her.
We KNOW Diana would have loved her boys with a fierce and overflowing love. One day one of them will have a baby girl and she will be named Diana. Diana RIP. You will not be forgotten.
Harry = His Royal Hotness!!!!!!!!
How could such a charming dude come from the seed of Charles?
DNA test?
I miss Princess Diana.I wish she could have had a happier life.But the
two things that did make her happy,were her boys.She would be very proud
to see these two handsome grown-up sons of hers.She will always be re-
membered for her compassion of people and people less fortunate than her!
anne did bow her head, it was princess margaret who barely moved her head.
harry looks like james hewitt.
harry definitely is looking better than william. william use to be so hot. horse face camilla better not have gone to the service. a lot of Diana’s misery and unhappiness was because of her and charles.
They clean up well if nothing else.
Thank you - you know why. If you ever start your own blog I will be there with bells on
Diana had class. I only wish the best for her sons. Charles can go to he11! ,and Camilla’s permanent home is there, we’ve seen her face. Bizth. The Queen was always finding fault with Di.,so I don’t buy into long live the Queen,the mean old hag. If it was’nt for Di’s sons I could honestly care less.
Prince william was a very good looking person till he was about 22. I guess his hairstyle is the biggest issue, and his face has gotten a bit stretched with age. But he still looks pretty hot. Definitely, the hot prince kind of a guy. You can’t forget his pinup kinda pictures from a couple of years back. Right until he started Uni, he was a damn good treat to the eye.
Prince Harry, not so much. But his appeal has gotten better. He certainly seems to have caught up in hieght with his brother. Both of them seem to keep fit. Look how awesome they clean up in a suit.
Harry’s personal tribute was very touching. I think it was very forward of him to pay a personal tribute and not a reading. But William did make a diplomatic move by just giving a reading. I think the media would have just had a field day if he gave a personal tribute. I think he has started to take his role pretty seriously the last couple of years. It’s good that they don’t feel their emotions have to be totally out on the road for everyone to lap up.
I do think Diana would have been happy with the way the boys turned out. Even Harry, with all the money and media glare, has managed better than what everyone thought when he was in his teens.
Who is the idiot complaining about no flowers? There were loads of flowers at Kensington Palace. Does he still want people hysterical with shock and grief ten years later?
They obviously have different fathers.
HARRY is so hot, OMG!! He’s H-O-T! ****~~!! I don’t even know what to say, William is alright, they def. have different fathers, and please, Harry is such a tease, love his sexy way, I saw the interview, he’s pure sex, and btw, William is know here in England as the next ‘Queen’, if you all know what I mean… Go Harry, you sexy STUD!!!!!!!
Princess Diana would be so proud of these handsome and eloquent young men. Prince Harry is definitely Prince William’s equal….
I’m a mother of a 20-year-old son and whenever I think of these boys tears flow down my cheeks! Diana cherished her sons and they unconditionally love her and the special legacy she left in their hearts as a wonderful mother no matter how others might judge certain aspects of her social life.
Although Camilla, obviously, fulfills the life of Prince Charles, it was most appropriate and gracious that she not participate in this memorial service as it was a most intimate time for the little boys who have grown into illustrious men!
I, too, miss Princess Diana. She touches my heart the same way it is touched whenever I hear a John Denver song! It isn’t easy to be an embodied angel and these two were magnificent angels on the earth!
Too bad William is loosing hear at such young age. Like father like son I guess. Harry is looking hotter then ever.
Harry did an amazing job with his words about his mother. I pray they don’t send that man to Iraq. They will carry on their mother’s human rights/charity work.
Princess Diana died ten years ago & she is still much loved and missed by the people of UK, especially.
Diana was a loving mother to both her boys. Because of her maternal touch her boys don’t appear to suffer from the obvious emotional constipation that Charles does. Will & Harry are for the most part normal feeling young men…they make mistakes as all young men & women do.
The question of Harry’s paternity is ridiculous. Harry has a strong resemblance to Diana’s brother and her eldest sister who has the same red hair and facial features. This cruel issue of James Hewitt is made up by the media to sell papers. They will do anything to sell papers.
Diana did alot of good for needy people during her short life. For example, no one wanted to touch people afflicted with AIDS, leprosy, etc. until Diana did (purposefully in front of the cameras), this helped to dispel the stigma and prejudice against these people, tremendously.
No other member of the Royal Family was ever willing to take on these charities (i.e. AIDS, LEPROSY & LANDMINES, ADDICTION). Diana took on these charities and many others. She helped make these causes visible. In a sense, she made it fashionable to care…she made compassion a desirable trait.
Yes, she had alot of wealth, luxury and priviledge. But she also had alot of pain. Her husband was in love with another woman throughout their marriage. The press pursued her relentlessly.
She brought happiness and compassion to many people. May she rest in peace.
Princeness Di was wonderful, loved her and her boys, hate the rest of them.. Charles and that ho.re Camzilla can eat sh.it!
