Princess Diana Reincarnated? 4-Year-Old Calls William And Harry His ‘Boys’

Children come up and say the most wondrous and often humorous things. Be it made-up words or stories about creatures, kids tend to bring a smile to our faces in most of the things they say. A child’s imagination can go really wild to entertain himself, from imagining up strange and fantastic places to even role playing different characters.

However, the wild and fantastical can border on horror quite quickly, especially when the details become too close to reality for comfort. Such was the case for 45-year-old TV host David Campbell, who simply shrugged and laughed when he first heard his 4-year-old son, Billy, claim that he was a princess.

“Look. It’s me when I was a princess,” exclaimed the young Billy, pointing to a picture of Princess Diana.

What was thought of as ordinary imaginative role playing suddenly turned chilling when the boy started talking about a sibling he did not have. The boy spoke of a certain John, who he claimed was his brother. What shook his parents to the core was when they realized that Princess Diana had a brother named John, who had passed away before she was born.

The child also spoke of his two “boys,” much to the confusion of his parents. When asked to clarify what he meant, Billy said he meant his two sons — presumably referring to Princess Diana’s two children, Harry and William.

What proceeded to shock his parents fully was when the little boy described a certain castle that had “unicorns” in it. Although seemingly a fantastical wonderland, the boy mentioned that the name of the castle was Balmoral — which just so happens to be the Queen’s residence in Scotland, adorned with Scotland’s national animal, the unicorn.

Although these are undoubtedly common knowledge easily accessible via the internet, the parents swear that they have not introduced or taught the child any information about the royal family. Although his wife is English, the old Campbell explains that they have no interest in the monarchy, so they’ve ruled out any interference from them.

But one particular story still haunts the parents, fully convincing them that their son’s experience is not normal. “There’s me as a princess,” Billy once again noted after being shown Diana’s picture. “Then one day the sirens came and I wasn’t a princess anymore,” he added, possibly referring to Diana’s tragic death in 1997.
