He did not appear in the flashlight. He did not pose for official photos. Always from the side, quiet, discreet, loyal. < img src = "https://zycie.news/crrops/0a6d42/620x0/1/0/2021/04/18/yo4wxli625u0m0m0m2s7777d5g09hmxmze5ftccqkceh3o.png" alt = "Prince Harry, Prince William/Screen YouTube" styles = "background-color: rgba (123,97,103.1)" > < P >Graham Craker & Amp; Ndash; A man who became the shadow of Princess Diana and her son & in & ndash; He left at the age of 77. For Prince William and Prince Harry & Amp; Rsquo; ego is a loss of someone much more important than a bodyguard. This farewell to the last witness of their childhood, a man who was with them when the whole world collapsed.

< p > in August 1997, when the life of William and Harry & rsquo; ego changed forever, Graham Craker stayed with them in the Scottish Balmoral. He was one of the first who had to say unimaginable words “ndash; that their mother is gone. He was next to the wave of silence, and William, leaving the dog, barely whispered: & thank you ” < p > Craker was with Diana until the end. He stood in the shadow of the caravan during her funeral and it was his look by William. This is a kr & oacute; quiet and full of meaning & ndash; M & oacute; everything. He was there. With them. With her. To the end.

< p > for the brothers he was not just a security officer. He was a “cracker” “& ndash; A man who cleaned flowers from the mask of the car when Harry and William could not understand the scale of this national mourning. He was everyday, he was peace, he was a routine, which gave a sense of security.

< p > Harry mentioned him in his autobiography. Not out of duty, but out of the needs of the heart. He wrote warmly about him and with a smile. Graham was one of the few adults to whom Diana Diana had boundless trust.

< P > Craker left at a time when William and Harry's relationships are tense. Perhaps this sadness after losing someone so close to both brothers will become a space in which & Oacute; Rej will be found to be found to find a language. Maybe it is & ampquo; crackers & rdquo; It will become their quiet bridge over the abyss of misunderstandings. < br />< br />< /p > < P >
