Prince Harry arranged for flowers to be laid at Princess Diana’s grave on Sunday to mark Mother’s Day in the United Kingdom, it has been confirmed. A spokesperson for the prince shared the tribute made by Harry, as other members of the royal family took to social media to mark the special day and remember royal mothers no longer with us.
