The 90s were dominated byoriginal supermodels like Cindy Crawford.
These models were instantly recognizable since their pictures were everywhere.
They captured the public’s imagination and built long-lasting careers.
Crawford, for instance, has worked with Revlon and starred inPepsi Super Bowl commercials, among other ventures.
As a kid, William, Prince of Wales, was captivated by these famous models.
William’s fandom became a catalyst for Princess Diana’s well-honed sense of mischief.
Diana reportedly loved to concoct all kinds of funny schemes, including ahilarious cake for William’s 13th birthday.
Diana further shocked her kids by giving them cards with mortifying exteriors (but heartfelt notes inside).
“I think I pretty much fell down the stairs on the way up.”
William wasn’t the only one speechless.
Also in 2017, Crawford shared her memory of the experience.
The supermodel reminisced that Diana personally invited her to Kensington Palace for tea.
In 2020, Crawford and Campbell discussed their memories of their royal visit and observed that they occurred independently.
“I was blushing,” she admitted on the"No Filter with Naomi"podcast.
“There’s so much protocol … not being English, I don’t understand some of it.”
Christy Turlington offered a logical explanation for the discrepancy between William and the supermodels' reminiscences.
Turlington noted that although William got the number of women correct, he misidentified one of them.
“It was Claudia Schiffer, not Cindy Crawford,” Turlington wrote onX, formerly Twitter.
Another divergence in memory occurred regarding Princess Diana’s wardrobe.
In her memory, Crawford recalled Diana meeting her at the door.
“I feel like she was in jeans and a cashmere sweater,” she told Campbell.
Christy Turlington and Linda Evangelista were the other members.
Thanks to Princess Diana’s efforts, William got to meet four of these iconic models.
As a fashion enthusiast, Diana revered these women and looked to them for fashion inspiration.
Diana eventually met the fifth member after she arranged to meet Evangelista at a restaurant.
For Harry, however, his mom’s joke fell a little flat.
