Princess Diana Spencer will always be remembered as a groundbreaking force for change. She was the sole pioneer of public welfare and social alms from the House of Windsor, for those in need. And following her tragic demise, it is her sons carrying forward her legacy of serving mankind to the best of one’s abilities. Everyone is aware of how keenly Prince Harry follows his late mother. However, this time, it is Prince William preaching the lessons of the former Princess of Wales.
