Princess Diana’s British society magazine cover photo

PRINCESS Diana's niece, the South African-raised Lady Kitty Spencer, has been a magazine cover girl, the British tabloid the Daily Mail reported yesterday. The 18-year-old daughter of Diana's brother, Earl Charles Spencer and his former wife, model Victoria Lockwood, has hit the cover of the April issue of British society magazine Tatler.

Kitty and her three siblings moved to Cape Town in 1995, around the time her parents separated. She has kept away from the spotlight and the visits of Spencer's Ancestral home Althorp in Northamptonshire, England, only during the holidays. Her model mother worked in the same magazine's covers almost 19 years ago, but Kitty says her photo shoot is the only part of his mother's past that she is prepared to emulate.

Despite her address, Tatler pronounced her one of the most eligible girls in the United Kingdom. Her boyfriend is a 21-year-old professional surfer called Jasper. "I do not think I have been happy growing up in England," she told the society bible.
