Apparently, Prince Harry's late mother, Princess Diana, was responsible for the excessive matching. "I genuinely think she [Princess Diana] got satisfaction out of dressing myself and William up in the most bizarre outfits – normally matching, Prince Harry said about his mom's sweet habit, according to Hello Magazine. "It was weird shorts and little shiny shoes with the old clip on. Looking back at the photos it just makes me laugh and I think, 'How could you do that to us?'"
