Prince William was very sweet to Princess Diana.

A clip of little Prince William holding a powder puff and applying powder on Princess Diana’s face was shared on Instagram. In the short clip, Princess Diana stays still as she allows her son to put powder on her face. Netizens find the video “adorable” and cute. Another said that the mother and son’s love for each other is very visible.

Princess Diana was very close to her sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, when she was still alive. She used to attend royal engagements with them and was photographed enjoying the beach with them.

A photo of Princess Diana and Prince William where they adorably look at each other also resurfaced on social media. In the snap, Prince William looks up at his mother while Princess Diana clasps her hands and smiles while looking down at him.

Royal fans felt that the picture captured the beautiful mother and son moment of Princess Diana and Prince William.

“The love for her son radiates from her eyes,” one netizen wrote.

According to royal expert Ingrid Seward, Princess Diana confessed that she was more worried about Prince William. The People’s Princess confessed this during a conversation when they talked about their children.

Princess Diana was probably worried because Prince William would be taking bigger responsibilities compared to Prince Harry, who is the second-in-line to the throne at the time. However, the Princess of Wales also confessed that she gave more love and attention to their younger son because she felt that the members of the family treated the two boys differently.

“As compensation, Diana poured more love and attention into Harry,” royal commentator Richard Kay wrote.

“I have to. Charles and I worked so hard to ensure both boys receive equal amounts of our time and love, but others in the family seem to concentrate on William,” Princess Diana told Kay.

Prince William and Prince Harry both admitted that they regretted their last phone call with Princess Diana. The Duke of Cambridge and Duke of Sussex were playing with their cousins in Balmoral when Princess Diana called and they were in a rush to end the phone call to resume their playtime not knowing that it would be the last time they would hear Princess Diana’s voice because she passed away that night.
