Since her older son, Prince William would follow in his father’s footsteps as the future King of England; Princess Diana witnessed Prince Harry being forgotten about or overlooked. As a result, she was sure to pay extra special attention to her youngest son who she jokingly called, “the spare.”

The late princess referred to Prince Harry as “very artistic and sporty.”  He adored hunting and riding. During his early childhood, the prince lived with his brother and parents in Kensington Palace during the week. However, they often spent the weekends at Highgrove House, their family’s estate in Gloucestershire.
