Princess Diana died in August 1997 aged just 36 years, leaving behind her sons. She was buried on at her family estate, Althorp Park, Northamptonshire.
Her brother Charles Spencer has now released a misty – ‘hauntingly beautiful’ photo of her resting place on Instagram, showing a misty morning on the island in the middle of the Round Oval Lake where his sister is buried.
This latest photo – which is captioned ‘Beautiful foggy morning today’ – shows the lake island on which Diana is buried, with a monument to her visible in the mist.
Writing the post online, he commented: ”Today is All Souls Day – when it’s customary to remember the souls of those you love, who’ve departed: it is known in some parts of the world as the Day of the Dead.
“A deeply poignant photograph for me from the summer of 1989, when there was a party at Althorp to mark my father’s 65th birthday earlier that year.”
The Earl Spencer, 58, who was Diana’s younger brother, is a British peer, author and broadcaster.
He inherited the family seat of Althorp estate on the death of his father in 1992 and lives there with his third wife, Karen, and their daughter Lady Charlotte.
