Hussein, an award-winning photographer, captured the iconic image of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, clad in vibrant blue, leaning on each other beneath an umbrella in 2020. Reflecting on his encounters with Meghan, who officially became a member of the royal family in 2018, Hussein described her presence as extraordinary. He noted that Meghan's penchant for physical affection, such as holding hands and linking arms with Prince Harry, stood out to him.
In an interview with The Telegraph, Hussein remarked on Meghan's noticeably elegant attire and her tactile nature, which contrasted with his initial expectations. The Duke, aged 39, and the Duchess, aged 42, are known for openly displaying affection in public, a departure from the more reserved demeanor typically observed among royal couples.
The captivating photograph of Harry and Meghan exchanging admiring glances will be featured in the upcoming photographic exhibition set to open in London in May. Titled "Princess Diana: Accredited Access," the exhibition will showcase the works of Samir Hussein, his father Anwar, and his brother Zach. Scheduled to take place at the IDE Vaults in St. Katherine Docks, London, from May 25th to September 2nd, the exhibition follows successful runs in Australia, the United States, and Canada.
Alongside private snapshots of Princess Diana, the exhibition will display photos spanning three generations of the royal family. Speaking about Princess Diana's enduring legacy, Samir emphasized her profound influence on various aspects of royal life, including her role as a nurturing mother, a fashion icon, and a dedicated humanitarian.
He highlighted the exhibition's focus on showcasing Diana's impact on modern motherhood, her revolutionary approach to royal fashion, and her remarkable philanthropic endeavors. By incorporating images of Diana's children and exploring her multifaceted legacy, the exhibition aims to celebrate her enduring influence on the royal family and beyond.
