The London crowd roared beneath the balcony where the Royal Family stood united. At seven, you mirrored Diana’s gaze and Elizabeth’s poise, your braids secured by a silver bullion and crystal flower crown. The Queen’s legendary three-strand pearl necklace rested heavily against your white sleeve dress. Beside you, fourteen-year-old William and eleven-year-old Harry watched as Charles waved to the masses. Diana, radiant in a light blue gown with hair loose, stood nearby, her tiara catching the light.
