Prince William and Kate Middleton seem to have one of the happiest marriages in the royal family. Not only have they been together for over two decades, but they have also been blessed with three children.
Princess Diana Told Prince William To Hang On To The People He Loves?
But several years ago, when Prince William was still a teenager, he reportedly had an important conversation with his mother, Princess Diana. While the latter’s marriage to King Charles was falling apart, the late royal had some wise words for her eldest son.
According to Cheat Sheet, Princess Diana told Martin Bashir that she immediately visited Prince William in school after King Charles confessed to his infidelity. And it was there that the mom of two gave Prince William an important piece of advice.
“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,” she said.

Princess Diana Devastated By King Charles’ Affair But Commended Him For His Honesty?
Meanwhile, Princess Diana also made some shocking revelations during her interview with Bashir in 1995. For instance, she said that she first found out about King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla’s affair following the release of Prince of Wales: A Biography by Jonathan Dimbleby.
“[She] saw it on the news that night that it had come out and shared, ‘My first concern was to the children because they were able to understand what was coming out, and I wanted to protect them,” the source said.
Princess Diana also told Bashir that was pretty devastated when she found out about the affair. But she also couldn’t help but admire her then-husband’s honesty because it took a lot for him to finally come clean.
“To be honest about a relationship with someone else, in his position, that’s quite something,” she said.
But even before King Charles’ confession, Princess Diana already had an inkling that he wasn’t being faithful. In fact, she reportedly confronted Queen Consort Camilla at a party that she wasn’t supposed to be attending.
