Diana's brother Charles Spencer shares a photograph from the family archive showing Queen Mary of Teck surrounded by the Spencers during her visit to their ancestral seat, Althorp House

Diana's brother Charles Spencer has shared a photograph from the family archive showing Queen Mary of Teck surrounded by the Spencers during her visit to their ancestral seat, Althorp House. The picture shows the grandfather and grandmother of Charles and Diana, their aunt, and their father with a dog. What caught the attention of followers was the appearance of the father, John Spencer, which has been reproduced to the letter in his great-grandson, Prince George. To my eye, though, the resemblance is not all that phenomenal: it is merely a matter of a fortunate angle, the same age, the shape of the face and the haircut. The two boys, frankly, are not nearly so alike as Mark Wahlberg and Matt Damon, or Logan Marshall-Green and Tom Hardy.
