The siblings came together for the first time since their grandfather Prince Philip’s funeral in April.

William and Harry grasped the cloth covering the monument to reveal it to the world together, and said they hope the statue will be seen as a lasting symbol of the “life and legacy” of their mother.

They said in a joint statement: “Today, on what would have been our Mother’s 60th birthday, we remember her love, strength and character – qualities that made her a force for good around the world, changing countless lives for the better.

“Every day, we wish she were still with us, and our hope is that this statue will be seen forever as a symbol of her life and her legacy.

“Thank you to Ian Rank-Broadley, Pip Morrison and their teams for their outstanding work, to the friends and donors who helped make this happen, and to all those around the world who keep our mother’s memory alive.”

Kensington Palace also explained the brothers wanted the statue to capture the “warmth, elegance and energy” of their mother, as well as the “impact she had on so many people”.

Meanwhile, Harry also spoke about life as a father of two during his visit.

The flame-haired prince admitted he and his wife, Duchess Meghan, are finding it a “juggle” parenting two kids.

Harry attended the 2021 WellChild Awards at Kew Gardens n London, where he was quizzed by pop star Ed Sheeran – who has a baby daughter Lyra, 10 months, with wife Cherry Seaborn – on life with son Archie, two, and three-week-old Lilibet Diana.

The 30-year-old singer said: “Congratulations, a girl right? We just had a little girl 10 months ago now. You’re still in the trenches now! How do you manage with two?”

To which Harry confessed: “Two is definitely a juggle.”

The 36-year-old royal – who became a father for the second time last month – said his eldest child is “running around like crazy”, but his baby daughter has been a dream so far.

He added: “We’ve been lucky so far, she’s very chilled and seems happy to just sit there while Archie is running around like crazy.”

Harry and the former ‘Suits’ actress – who was known as Meghan Markle before marrying Queen Elizabeth’s grandson in May 2018 – announced the safe arrival of their little girl and revealed the baby is also named after the British monarch, whose pet name is Lilibet, and Diana.
