Princess Diana was a doting mother, often taking her sons along with her to events, and in one unearthed interview clip, Prince William and Prince Harry interrupt their mothermultiple times, and she's forced to tell them off.

At the start of the video Princess Diana could be heard saying: "If you come in here, you sit down and be quiet… very quiet," presumably to her sons who are off screen.

They both could be heard giggling during the filming and when Diana was asked a question, Prince Harry swiftly responded for her, meaning the Princess asked Harry to "Shush" before trying to continue on with her answer. She went on to say: "Shush Harry just sit down. Just sit!"

See Princess Diana handle her sons' interruptions 

It wasn't just Harry with a mischievous side when he was younger, as William tested Diana's patients on occasion. In one archived video, William was seen sulking when his mother ended playtime and told him it was time to go in from the garden at Kensington Palace.

The Duke glared at his mother and stood firmly rooted to the spot, but his mother knew exactly how to handle it. Diana can be heard using reverse psychology, and she said: "All right Harry will have all the fun then," as she turned and walked away with a young Prince Harry in her arms.
