The throwback post comes only a week after Charles treated fans to a glimpse of his grandparents, Albert and Cynthia Spencer. In the black-and-white photo, we see where Princess Diana got her infamous head tilt, as her grandmother is seen striking the exact same pose alongside her husband. Spencer wrote in the caption, "My grandparents enjoying their tea ‘al fresco’ at Althorp, in 1944. Photograph taken by my father whilst on leave from military training."
Naturally, fans couldn't help but call out the Princess Di's go-to pose. One fan wrote, "Wow this is an amazing photo. Your grandmother reminds me so much of Diana."
Aside from sharing a number of snaps from his family's history, the 9th Earl Spencer has also been honoring his sister's legacy. Two months ago, he hosted a ceremony for recipients of The Diana Award’s Legacy Award—an accolade for those who've made an impact through their humanitarian work. Per People, he said, "I chaired the selection of the winners, so I’m aware how truly admirable their achievements are. This will be a celebration of these exceptional young people, but also, of course, of Diana herself."
Keep these vintage gems coming, Charles.
