Mother’s Day has a special meaning for Royal family

MOTHER’S DAY has a special meaning for the royal family since it is “shrouded in mourning for William and Harry” following Princess Diana’s death.

While the day is meant to be a day of celebration, paying honor to people like Kate Middleton and the Queen, it can also be a difficult day for Prince William and Prince Harry.

“It wasn’t until the aftermath of Princess Diana’s death in 1997 that Mother’s Day took on an extra meaning for the Royals,” Duncan Larcombe, Royal Author and former Royal Editor of The Sun, told Fabulous.

Since then, William and Harry’s fourth Sunday in the Christian holiday of Lent – when Mother’s Day is observed in the United Kingdom – has been cloaked in melancholy.

“Both the boys have spoken about how difficult they find the day, which for years they would always dread.

“Prince Charles and the rest of the family were at pains to throw a ring of cotton wool around Diana’s children on the Mothering Sundays that followed her death.

“But this changed when first William and then Harry had children of their own.

“Now the focus is on using the day as a chance to tell their children about the amazing grandmother they never met.”
