Diana, Princess of Wales, allegedly left cautions for Prince Harry and Prince William concerning the challenging journey they were destined to traverse
In a recent article published by PEOPLE, Princess Diana's former private secretary, Patrick Jephson, shared insights into the late Princess of Wales' advice and warnings for Prince William and Prince Harry. Jephson believes that Diana continues to guide, comfort, and inspire the brothers on their journey as future kings.
According to Jephson, Princess Diana left her sons examples to follow and warnings to heed regarding their royal duties. She believed that the younger son, Prince Harry, was destined to support the older, Prince William, in the lonely task as future king. Jephson urges William, Harry, and their advisors to study Diana's life carefully to understand these lessons.
The lessons emphasize the need for personal responsibility and sacrifice in their roles. By valuing and earning their royal positions through self-sacrifice and service, rather than entitlement, the brothers could mend their fractured relationship. Jephson also suggests that embracing family unity and reconciliation, as Diana would have sought to mediate between her sons, could be key to overcoming their personal and familial conflict.
Royal experts believe that Diana, if still alive, would have acted as a peacemaker during her sons' fallout. This is supported by Andrew Morton's assertion that Diana believed she had two sons for a reason. Morton also states that Diana understood each son’s character and would have motivated them toward reconciliation.
Efforts for a reconciliation have been made, with King Charles now engaging in peace talks with his youngest son. However, the brothers' feud remains "profound and very long-lasting". Despite this, Jephson emphasizes that public affection and the rewards of royalty must be earned through self-sacrifice and service, according to Princess Diana's teachings.
The story will be updated as future developments regarding the feud between the brothers unfold. In the meantime, the teachings from Princess Diana suggest a path for William and Harry to repair their relationship and honor her legacy more cohesively. This path includes following Diana's principles of personal courage, compassion, and public commitment, and embracing family unity and reconciliation.
