On what would have been her 63rd birthday, Princess Diana’s brother, Charles Spencer, commemorated his sister with a striking photograph shared on his Instagram Story. Over the image, he simply wrote, “63 years ago today…” The poignant tribute to Diana felt notably personal and nostalgic.
A Candid Tribute
While Charles Spencer has frequently posted images of his sister, this particular photo seemed especially heartfelt. Just a few months ago, in April, he shared a childhood photo of himself and Diana on the same platform. 
Along with that image, he nostalgically penned, My first day of school, in September 1968: my father took this photograph of me and my sister, Diana, just before he drove us to Silfield…
A Rare Joint Statement
The emotional tribute coincided with reflections on another significant moment for Diana’s memory. Back in 2021, Princes William and Harry came together to unveil a statue of their mother on her 60th birthday. During the small ceremony in Kensington Palace’s Sunken Garden, they unveiled a bronze sculpture capturing her likeness.
Accompanying the unveiling was a touching joint statement where both brothers expressed, Today, on what would have been our mother’s 60th birthday…
An Emotional Event
Diana’s siblings also attended the statue unveiling event alongside other notable figures such as sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley and garden designer Pip Morrison. It was a moving occasion marked by unity and reverence for Princess Diana’s enduring legacy.
