Prince William has marked Mother’s Day by posting a previously unseen picture of Diana on social media.
The touching image shows the Prince of Wales aged two exploring a meadow with his mother at Highgrove, Gloucestershire, in 1984.
In the caption, he wrote: ‘Remembering my mother, today and every day.
‘Thinking of all those who are remembering someone they love today. Happy Mother’s Day.’
William signed off the post with a ‘W’.

Kensington Palace has previously revealed that Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis write cards for their ‘Granny Diana’ every Mother’s Day.
George’s message in 2021 read: ‘I love you very much and think of you always.’
In her own card, Charlotte added: ‘Papa is missing you.’
Diana died aged 36 after she was involved in a car crash on August 31 1997, when William was 15.
This year’s photograph appears to have been taken in the same Highgrove field of poppies where William and his brother Harry posed with their father, the then-Prince Charles, for the family’s 1994 Christmas card.
The Royal Family’s account on X also shared a series of pictures to mark Mother’s Day.
They included one showing Queen Camilla with her mother Rosalind Shand and another with King Charles as a child with his sister Anne and his mother the late Queen Elizabeth.
The caption says: ‘Wishing Mothers everywhere, and those who might be missing their Mums today, a restful Mothering Sunday.’
