The Prince of Wales, Prince William, commemorated his mother, Princess Diana’s legacy by addressing The Diana Legacy Awards, marking the charity’s 25th anniversary. In his speech, William echoed Diana’s belief in the transformative power of youth in driving societal change and underscored the Diana Award’s role in empowering young individuals globally. He expressed pride in the charity’s quarter-century of uplifting young people.

The ceremony also highlighted the ongoing efforts by both Prince William and his brother, Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, to perpetuate their mother’s legacy of compassion and humanitarianism, despite reported tensions between them. Prince Harry, who resides in California, participated in the event virtually, underscoring the brothers’ commitment to Diana’s causes, even amidst personal differences.

Prince Harry’s virtual attendance comes amid a backdrop of rare public appearances together following his relocation to the US with his wife, Meghan Markle, four years ago, highlighting the brothers’ reported feud. Meanwhile, Meghan Markle has reactivated her Instagram account to launch her new luxury lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, her first post on the platform since 2018, amidst fluctuating public interest in the couple.

As the Diana Award celebrated a significant milestone, both William and Harry showcased unity in honouring their mother’s enduring influence on youth and humanitarian efforts, despite prevailing personal and public challenges.
