Prince William paid tribute to his late mother, Princess Diana, by paying a visit to her family members last weekend.

According to the Daily Express, Prince William took his brood to visit the late Princess Diana's eldest sister, Lady Sarah McCorquodale, in Stoke Rochford, to honour the memory of his late mother on the 16th anniversary of her death.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, along with six-week-old Prince George, were spotted boarding a helicopter at Belton Woods country club, just six miles away from Lady Sarah's farmhouse in Lincolnshire, the publication reports.

Prince William and Duchess Kate have made efforts to keep in touch with Diana's side of the family, and are reputed to be especially close to Lady Sarah. In June 2012, William and Kate attended the wedding of Lady Sarah and her husband Neil's eldest child, Emily McCorquodale, to James Hutt.
