Prince Harry has fondly remembered a special moment he shared with his mother, the late Princess Diana. In his memoir ‘Spare’, the Duke of Sussex writes about a memory where he recalls his mother tucking sweets into his socks as he left for school.
“I remembered one day at Ludgrove, Mummy stuffing sweets into my sock. Outside sweets were forbidden, so Mummy was flouting school rules, giggling as she did so, which made me love her even more,” Harry pens.
The Duke of Sussex then goes on to reminisce about the moment, “I remembered both of us laughing as we buried the sweets deep in the sock, and me squealing: Oh, Mummy, you’re so naughty! I remembered the brand of those sweets. Opal Fruits! Hard squares of bright colors…not unlike these resurrected memories. No wonder I was so keen on Grub Days. And Opal Fruits.”
The memory highlights a special bond between Prince Harry and Princess Diana, and shows a different side to the royal family. ‘Spare’ is set to be released later this year and is expected to give readers an insight into Prince Harry’s life as a member of the royal family and beyond.
