As well as Kensington Palace being where Harry and his brother William were raised, its garden has now become a memorial area for Diana. The garden officially changed names to become the White Garden in 2017, after being filled with hundreds of white flowers to mark 20 years since Diana, Princess of Wales' tragic death.
