Princes William and Harry unveiled a statue of their mother at Kensington Palace amid what People characterizes as a "warm reunion." The statue features Diana with three children, symbolizing her work on behalf of children around the world. The royal brothers have had a rocky relationship of late after Harry moved to the US and gave up his royal duties, but the BBC notes they were "laughing and talking animatedly" at the low-key unveiling. "Today, on what would have been our Mother's 60th birthday, we remember her love, strength and character—qualities that made her a force for good around the world, changing countless lives for the better," say the princes in a joint statement. "Every day, we wish she were still with us, and our hope is that this statue will be seen forever as a symbol of her life and her legacy." Among those present at Thursday's ceremony were Diana's two sisters and a brother. Read These Next Minneapolis shooter had a plan—and grievances.
