As Prime Minister Imran Khan met with his royal guests Prince William and Kate Middleton, the three could not help but rekindle their old familial ties courtesy of the Duke’s mother Princess Diana who had been a close friend of the premier.

According to a report, the Duke of Cambridge had memories of meeting the Pakistani leader fresh in his head, well before he was anywhere near becoming the country’s prime minister.
