How a "Prediction" Princess Diana Made About Prince William Decades Ago Is Finally Coming True

Prince William sits on Princess Diana's lap in 1987.

Princess Diana was fiercely protective of her two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, and according to a royal expert, the late royal once made an insightful "prediction" about the future king. Princess Diana tragically died in a car accident in Paris in August 1997, meaning she never got to see her sons grow up. However, it would seem that the former Princess of Wales had complete faith in William and Harry's futures.

Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond opened up about Princess Diana's Prince William "prediction" while speaking with the Mirror (via Hello! magazine). According to Bond, Diana told her, "William's alright. The country is very lucky to have William." Reflecting on Princess Diana's prescient words, Bond told the outlet, "I think she was bang on."
