William and Harry reunite! Princes William and Harry on Thursday came together to unveil a new statue in memory of their late mother, Princess Diana, on what would have been her 60th birthday, saying they remember her love, strength and character – the qualities that made her a "force for good" around the world. A ceremony described as small and intimate was held at Kensington Palace in London for the unveiling of the Princess of Wales' memorial statue, which was commissioned by her sons in 2017. Let us take a look at some of the images:
