The Duke of Cambridge opened his
heart out to reveal how he had to control himself not to cry thinking about his
late mother, during his wedding with Kate Middleton in April 2011.
Prince William spoke emotionally
about missing his late mom, in the course of an interview to Katie Couric for a
US TV Queen’s Diamond Jubilee special.

Possibly for the first time, the highly private
Wills, 29, talked about his grief that Diana was not there with them on their
important day nor be able to meet his wife Catherine in person.
At the same time the Duke believed that had his
mother been alive she would have been very happy at the wedding and proud of
them.
Prince William also disclosed to Katie Curic
about his mental dilemma prior to the wedding:
“I sort of prepared myself beforehand so that I was mentally prepared
... I didn’t want any wobbly lips or anything going on.”

As anyone with a little knowledge of astrology
knows, Cancerian’s are very attached to their mothers and in anything they do,
their mother is paramount. So it is but natural for Cancerian Wills to remember
his mom on his wedding day.
“It’s the one time since she’s died, where I’ve
... I’ve thought to myself it would be fantastic if she was here, and just how
sad really for her, more than anything, not being able to see it.”
Further, the emotional person that he is, Wills
said: “I think she would have loved the day and I think, hopefully, she’d be
very proud of us both for the day. I’m just very sad that she’s never going to
get a chance to meet Kate.”
It may be recalled that early
last year Wills, much against fears of jinx expressed all around, boldly
decided to present Kate Middleton with his late mother’s diamond and sapphire
engagement ring. The symbolism of a
doting son’s gesture in this cannot be lost.
William told Tom Bradby of ITN
then: “It is very special to me …. It was my way to make sure my mother did not
miss out on today and the excitement that we are going
to spend the rest of our lives together. This is my way of keeping her close to
it all.” Guess those words said it loud and clear what was deep in Prince
William’s heart.
Meanwhile, Prince Harry who also gave an
interview to Katie Curie said that he felt his mom Diana was them with at the
Westminster Abbey wedding in spirit. In his typical breezy style, the
articulate Harry said: “She would have loved to have been there. I think she
had the best seat in the house, probably.”
