Princess Diana's Lookalike Nieces Made a Rare Appearance Supporting Prince William


Last night, Prince William had another royal event on his calendar: the Centrepoint Awards at the British Museum. The organization is near and dear to his heart—and his late mother Princess Diana's—as it works to help homeless youth in the United Kingdom. William serves as patron for the charity and last night's big gala had some very special guests. His cousins, Lady Kitty Spencer, Lady Amelia Spencer, and Lady Eliza Spencer arrived to support William and celebrate young people who changed their lives after experiencing homelessness.


Kitty, who is 33, and her twin sisters, Amelia and Eliza, who are 32, are the children of Diana's brother, Charles Spencer, and his first wife, Victoria Lockwood. Kitty serves as a Centrepoint ambassador and People notes that it was a very rare occurrence that all three siblings came out to a public event together.


According to Tatler, fellow royals Princess Beatrice and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, were also in attendance at the gala. According to Kensington Palace, the Centrepoint Awards celebrate and honor winners and finalists who have made major strides in their careers, personal development, and contributions to society. The annual event highlights the honorees' "courage, resilience, strength and determination."


"As Centrepoint’s Patron for almost 20 years, it has always been a great privilege to meet the young people that they, and their partners, support," William shared during the event. "Tonight is no exception." 


"I am inspired by the ambition and commitment of all the award winners and nominees this evening. You should all be incredibly proud of yourselves," he added. "What inspires me the most about the young people here this evening is that they have not only overcome homelessness to achieve their personal ambitions, but they are also all contributing to the communities in which they live—be that through teaching, fundraising, or volunteering. While homelessness is, of course, a complex societal issue, I passionately believe that it can, and should, be ended."
