It's been 20 years since Princess Diana tragically passed away.

A statement from Kensington Palace states that the Princes wished to share the photos of their mother as they remember her on this 20th anniversary.
Princess Diana
Princess Diana was the first wife of Prince Charles, the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth, the second. She is the mother of the princes, William and Harry. Her married life has been surrounded by much controversy.
She was tragically killed in a road accident in Paris in August 1997. Her sons, William and Harry were 15 and 13 at the time, respectively. The world mourned her loss extensively, especially as she was only 37 years of age.
The Photos
In honor of the 20th Anniversary of their mother's death, Prince William and Harry have published three photographs from Diana's personal photo album. The first, a photo of a young Diana with Prince William can be seen here.
The second, a photo of Diana with a young Prince Harry can be seen here.
The third, a charming photo of the two young princes is shown here.
20th Anniversary
Diana's 20th Anniversary is being recognized and remembered with a documentary about Diana that airs today in London.
The documentary is titled, "Diana: Our Mother: Her Life and Legacy." It follows the life and work of Princess Diana. The princes are also seen going through photo albums, in this very documentary. Prince William has said that it feels like the right time to show the world who his mother really was. He is hoping that the documentary shows a side of Diana that the world has not seen before, her as a hard-working lady and mother.
Prince Harry has also spoken out about his grief. He admits that he still mourns the loss of his mother and that he wishes that he had spent more time talking to her on the phone on the night of that fateful event. Nonetheless, now that it has happened, he wishes to show the world the incredible lady that his mother was.
Prince Harry also said that when he thinks of his mother, the thing he remembers most is her laugh.
He remembers the time with her being "pure happiness". Prince William added that his mother had made him and his brother feel "incredibly loved." It is these characteristics of Diana's that are portrayed in the documentary to be released later today.
