I found this paragraph from one of the articles about Diana in Newsweek
magazine:

Diana went out of her way to give William and Harry the maternal love and
support she felt her husband never had. She breast-fed them and insisted on
taking William, then just an infant, with her when the couple toured
Australia in 1983, a dramatic change in royal-family behavior. She openly
hugged them, took them to amusement parks and hamburger joints-just like
other kids. When she was with them, her face took on a special glow. No
matter what else was wrong with her life, her time with them was serene.
