Royal fans have sad theory on why Prince William and Prince Harry don’t acknowledge Princess Diana’s birthday on social media

On July 1, Princess Diana would have turned 64, and royal fans have been discussing why her sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, don’t publicly acknowledge her birthday online.

The last time the brothers marked Diana’s birthday together was in 2021, when they unveiled a statue in her honor at Kensington Palace on what would have been her 60th birthday. They shared a statement reflecting on her love, strength, and lasting impact on the world.

Since then, neither William nor Harry has posted tributes on social media for her birthday, prompting speculation from fans. Many believe the silence could stem from personal grief or their preference to honor her privately.

One fan noted that the princes might not manage their own social media accounts and may have personal ways of remembering their mother. Others suggest that the absence of public posts does not reflect a lack of love or remembrance.

In 2017, William and Harry took part in a heartfelt documentary titled Diana, Our Mother: Her Life and Legacy, where they spoke openly about her influence and their love for her.

Both princes have honored Diana by giving their daughters the middle name “Diana.” William’s daughter is Princess Charlotte Diana, and Harry’s daughter is Lilibet Diana.

Recently, William visited a homeless shelter, seen as a tribute to his mother’s legacy. Diana often took her sons to shelters during their youth, and William now continues that work through his homelessness charity, Homewards.
