November 26th, 2010 - 6:24 pm ICT by ANI
London, Nov.26 (ANI): Prince William has reportedly asked Earl Spencer, the brother of his mother, Diana, to give a speech about her, at his wedding to Kate Middleton in April next year. Charles Spencer will speak about his late sister - the Prince’s late mother - the earl’s eldest daughter Lady Kitty Spencer has allegedly told friends.
The Daily Mail reported that Lady Kitty, 19, said that Prince William wants her father to “represent his sister, and to talk about her at the wedding”.
It is not clear whether the Earl will speak during the service at Westminster Abbey on April 29 or at one of the receptions afterwards, The Telegraph reports.
Kitty said Charles Spencer and William have a good, solid relationship and it’s very important for William that his mother is at his wedding, so to speak.
It is understood that royal aides are due to meet the 46-year-old earl and members of the Spencer family in London before Christmas to discuss their involvement. (ANI)
