When asked if he speaks to Archie and Lilibet about his mother, he shared: “I don’t tell him [Archie] all the stuff that’s happened, but certainly that this is Grandma Diana, and we’ve got a couple of photos up in the house.”

He also expressed how he constantly feels his mother’s presence, saying: “It has been over the last two years more so than ever before.
“It is almost as though she’s done her bit with my brother and now she’s very much like helping me. She got him set up and now she’s helping me set up. That’s what it feels like. He’s got his kids, I’ve got my kids.”
He added: “She’s watching over us.”
