Princess Diana never got to meet her grandchildren. Prince William and Kate Middleton’s three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, are all still living in the UK. In contrast, Prince Harry and Meghan, along with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, reside in the US.

However, even though the “people’s princess” never met her grandchildren, her legacy remains very much alive. Additionally, fans have noticed striking similarities in the children’s mannerisms and appearance, which are reminiscent of those of Diana. Meanwhile, William has shared tearjerking stories about how well her children know their grandmother

Prince William and Prince Harry lost their mother, Princess Diana, when they were only teenagers. The Princess of Wales passed away following a tragic car accident in Paris in 1997, leaving her two children without a mother. The world grieved as Diana was laid to rest.

Now, almost 20 years later, no one has forgotten the beloved princess. Meanwhile, her grandchildren are growing up quickly, with the eldest, Prince George, set to become king in the future.

Princess Lilibet, 4, is still very young, which makes it hard to see if she bears any resemblance to Diana. However, William and Kate’s daughter, Princess Charlotte, who turned ten in May, has already left fans baffled by the traits she shares with her late grandmother.

One of the most distinctive expressions Diana featured was looking up through her eyelashes with a slightly tilted head. For many, it gave the impression that she was shy, and it became known as the “Spencer Stare.” It became somewhat of a signature look for Diana, and it appeared as if Princess Charlotte is continuing the tradition.

Princess Charlotte shares “Spencer Stare” with grandma Princess Diana

Social media users have noticed that the 10-year-old has inherited her jawline and “Spencer Stare”. One wrote on TikTok, “William, Charlotte, and Diana all have the same eye shape, with William even sharing Diana’s eye colour.”

One picture taken at King Charles’ coronation had eagle-eyed fans seeing the “Spencer Stare” in Charlotte. One commented, “The little princess looks so much like her grandmother Diana, beautiful as ever.”
