On August 31, 1997, Princess Diana tragically died in a car crash in Paris. Her son, Prince Harry, was just 12 years old at the time.

At the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in May 2018, Harry's friend Charlie van Straubenzee gave an emotional speech praising the way Harry dealt with his mother's death.

According to a guest, Charlie described how awful it was for Harry to go through everything and how proud all Harry's friends are of how he has come through it.

Charlie also praised Meghan for making Harry happy since they started dating, but he wasn't so kind to his pal in the rest of the speech, teasing him for his ginger hair.

He also questioned Harry's behavior when he was dormitory monitor at Ludgrove School in Berkshire, accusing him of throwing his teddy bear on the roof.
