Diana always seemed to have a warm charm around her, and she made everyone fall in love with her with great ease. She was always seen wearing a gorgeous and friendly smile, and when she passed away, she left a great void in the hearts of everyone who knew her or had even heard of her.

Since her death, her sons, William and Harry, have found it hard to talk about the incident and their feelings about the issue.

"I think it's never going to be easy for the two of us to talk about our mother, but 20 years on seems like a good time to remind people of the difference that she made not just to the royal family, but also to the world,"

Harry said in an interview.
