All The Times Princess Diana Played By Her Own Rules

Traveling with the kids

Royals are often sent around the world on various different charity projects and official tours of countries. It was common to leave their children at home with nannies while they tended to business abroad, but Princess Diana did not want to do this.

Instead, Diana brought William and Harry along on many of her trips as she thought it was important for them to see the world and understand different cultures from a young age. When Prince William was nine months old, he was taken along on a tour of Australia and New Zealand.
