    Prince William and Prince Harry were pictured standing shoulder-to-shoulder before revealing a statue created in Princess Diana's honour by Ian Rank-Broadley and placed in the remodelled Sunken Garden of Kensington Palace, a place of solace and safety for her before she died in 1997.
    They put their personal animosity to one side this afternoon at the private ceremony, which started at 2pm, and saw Diana's sons gather along with the princess' siblings The Earl Spencer, The Lady Sarah McCorquodale, and The Lady Jane Fellowes, in addition to the Statue Committee, the sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley, garden designer Pip Morrison and Chair of Historic Royal Palaces, Rupert Gavin. Hundreds of mourners gathered outside from dawn with Diana's fans travelling from all over the UK to west London for the poignant commemorative event today, with Harry arriving at 1.45pm - just 15 minutes before the grand unveiling. The brothers, who have been split by Harry's decision to leave the UK, were seen chatting in the grounds of Kensington Palace moments before the grand unveiling.

    Prince William's body language and gestures touched me deeply. The way he he unveiled it and took the moment to reflect, brought me to tears. He couldn't look away for a moment and there he stood, just looking proud at the statue of his mother. You could see it though his body the way he was absorbing, the language in the way he stood. The time he took speaking to the artist, as well as to others- so respectful, sincere. The blood of a King truly runs through him, I am just in awe.

      Whats’s missing is her “lightness of being” her beautiful smile and her humor which seemed to be there to assuage the worst of times. She was never dull and this statue seems dull. I think her sons wanted to celebrate her sense of purpose and dedication to those less fortunate, it does that I think, unfortunately at the expense of other qualities which made her a mesmerizing and endearing person.

Unkown if that is true, and if it is, unkown if it was a gesture of true concern or true irony.

    So many of you are missing the point of the way the sculptor portrayed Diana, and the truth of the matter is, Diana was a woman of pure strength and her strength was her love for people. So many are criticizing the way Diana was rendered, but the sculptor was trying to capture the strength within Diana through the chiseled features and the plain outfit he chose her to wear. Diana was above the superficial things of royal life. Sure, she knew how to dress up, and BOY was she beautiful, but even in plain clothes her beauty shown through! This sculpture is about her LOVE for others, especially children. Her concern was for other's to be comfortable. A true mark of a lady, which Diana was. She is the People's Princess and always will be! Someday when it's my time to go, I shall wish for her to be one of those beautiful souls that meets me to bring me into Heaven. I watched her from a little girl of 7 and I shall never forget her.
    Try and look at this sculpture again with her strength in love in mind and not the superficial. 💙

    Not a fan of the statue, it has not captured Diana’s beaming smile or beautiful eyes. Not sure about the little one hiding behind her. Why were those awful clothes chosen, a lovely softly falling summer dress would have been better however at the end of the day she is the boy’s Mum & if they are happy with the statue it is all that matters. William looked so well put together & so refined, not sure what Harry was trying to achieve, brown shoes, unbuttoned jacket, unruly hair & beard & that hands on hips defiant stance.

      It is this mindset that Harry does not belong that sent him away. He belongs to America now. He belongs to people of color now. Harry is our light skinned brother. We love you Harry. He had Diana joy. William was happy too. Even when the camera man was told to stay on William, we looked to make sure Harry was there. They should have stayed on both brothers. No matter, Diana loved her Sons completely. Sad the British people demand William be a lifeless doll in order to be Their King. Trapped in a fantasy world the British people will not go into the 22nd century.
