“Philip recognised Diana as an awkward young girl, who was obviously overawed by the situation.

Unsurprisingly, planning for royal funerals is meticulous, with no detail overlooked.

Her funeral, like her wedding, was viewed around the world.”

However, getting to that point wasn’t without issues.

Anji Hunter, a former government relations director, recalled a conference call, and Prince Philip’s input.

“We hadn’t heard from him before, but he was really anguished.

‘It’s about the boys,’ he cried, ‘They’ve lost their mother.'”
