Over 60,000 people gathered in London's Wembley Stadium on Sunday to honour the life of Princess Diana at a star-studded charity concert, 10 years after she died in a car crash.
"This evening is about all that my mother loved in life: her music, her dance, her charities and her family and friends," William told the crowd last night, thanking them and millions more who watched the show on television.
The concert also served as a posthumous 46th birthday bash for Diana and tribute from her sons, Princes William and Harry.
British stars such as Joss Stone, Take That, and Rod Stewart took to the stage during the six-hour show. In honour of Diana's love of dance and musical theatre, there was a performance of an act from Swan Lake by the English National Ballet, and songs by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
The Leprosy Mission, an international Christian organisation, is one of the charities that benefited from the proceeds of the Concert for Diana.
From 1990 until her death in 1997, Princess Diana was Patron of The Leprosy Mission. Recognising that the stigma associated with leprosy was ill-founded, she tried to dispel the myths surrounding the disease by visiting hospitals and touching patients.
Representatives from the charities with which Princess Diana was associated will be invited to a memorial service to be held in London on August.
Diana died on 31 August 1997, along with her boyfriend Dodi Fayed and their driver when their Mercedes crashed inside the Pont d'Alma tunnel in Paris with media photographers in close pursuit.
