An unseen photo of Princess Diana taken over three decades ago has been unveiled for the first time, ahead of being displayed at Kate Middleton and Prince William's home.
- A never-seen-before photo of Princess Diana has been unveiled over 30 years after it was taken.
- The special image of the late Princess of Wales is set to be displayed in Kensington Palace, where she used to live with Prince William and Prince Harry.
- This royal news comes after it was revealed that Kate Middleton's clubbing outfits from her pre-royal party days are going viral.
An unearthed photo of Princess Diana is set to go on display at Kensington Palace this week, in a special exhibition in the royal residence of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
The portrait, which was taken by photographer David Bailey back in 1988, was commissioned by the National Portrait Gallery and has finally been released for viewing by the public.
