On Aug. 22, Prince Harry was thrown into the spotlight even more than usual after nude photos of the royal partying in Vegas surfaced all over the internet.
And about a week later, Aug. 31, marked the 15th anniversary of his mother Princess Diana's death.
While Harry has grown up accustomed to the limelight, his late mother wasn't always so at ease with the cameras.
What started as the public's interest in the seemingly fairytale marriage of Lady Diana and Prince Charles of Wales led to rumors of affairs, probing by the press, and ultimately, her death after a paparazzi car chase in 1997.
Whether it was the birth of her two sons or scandalous rumors of what was going on inside the palace, the press documented Lady Di's every move—for better or worse.
