Royal Family News: The Wales Kids Are Given Love Advice
Ironically, Diana gave her young son William similar advice following her bitter breakup and divorce from his father. She stated in her 1995 BBC Panorama interview that she told WIlliam: “If you find someone you love in life, you must hang on to it and look after it, and if you were lucky enough to find someone who loved you, then one must protect it.” It’s hard to argue with that philosophy, isn’t it?
By all accounts William took his late mother’s advice as he has been happily married to Princess Kate, the mother of his three children, for over a decade.
