Prince Harry and Prince William's viral interaction with a dog sparked comparisons to their late mother, Princess Diana.
The two videos—which were uploaded via TikTok earlier this week—show the brothers interacting with an Italian greyhound named Luna outside Windsor Castle in England. The pair were greeting well-wishers following the death of their grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.
"Luna dog meeting Prince William. Dogs bring so much comfort during the darkest of times. I hope her sweet face brought some joy to his sorrow," TikToker @rachcot captioned the first clip.

"It's a sea of hands! Trying to reach everyone at the back," the new Prince of Wales, 40, said. "Aww look, who's this?" he asked spotting the pup, before someone from the crowd could be heard saying, "Luna."
"Hello, Luna! You're very sweet, Luna," the heir to the throne added in a high-pitched voice.
"Dogs at this time are so important," he told the crowd. "I give my dog a lot of cuddles at the moment."
While petting Luna, 2, the prince revealed he and his family—Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, and their kids George, Charlotte and Louis—have "a little spaniel called Orla," adding, "She's very sweet."

After members of the crowd expressed their condolences, he said, "Thank you very much, I appreciate it. Nice to meet you guys. Thank you for coming along today."
In the second clip, @rachcot said she hoped Luna helped bring Prince Harry "a little light during his difficult time."
"Hello sweetie," the Duke of Sussex, 38, said while rubbing Luna's nose. "You can smell the other dogs," he added, as the crowd giggled alongside a collective, "Aww."
The dad of two—who shares kids Archie and Lilibet with wife Meghan Markle—asked her name before smiling and walking away.
