Lady Diana's 27-year-old niece Kitty Spencer is on her way to become completely iconic. With a fashion career, stunning looks and the signature British elegance, Kitty is basically the 21st century Diana. She is only just finding success as a model but she has been a fixture in the British circles for years now.
Many people have said that mainstream success came too late for Kitty. But that's how things went with Diana too. So why does Kitty remind everyone of Princess Diana?
Kitty is a huge name in the British aristocratic society. She has been famous since she was a teenager and of course belongs to one of the most important British families. Kitty is the daughter of Diana's brother Charles Spencer and former model Victoria Lockwood.

Kitty’s shiny blonde locks were the first thing which caught the attention of the British people. Her long golden locks are the exact shade of Princess Diana’s, who was also known for her shiny mane. In fact Diana was hailed as an icon for her trailblazing golden bob. Though Kitty wears her hair longer than her famous aunt, Kitty's blonde hair has turned a lot of heads.

Kitty has a very similar jawline to Diana. Princess Diana had high cheekbones and a square face. Interestingly Kitty also has Diana's jaw and cheeks. In fact, Kitty is the only one in the Spencer family to have that face cut.

Kitty was first spotted by media at Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla's wedding in 2005. People were obviously curious about the tall blonde whom they had never seen before. Kitty opted for a gorgeous cream number and black coat and has since then been a fixture at almost every Royal wedding including William and Kate's.

People were surprised when the Kitty and her family showed up to Charles and Camilla's wedding given their distasteful history. Charles had an affair with Camilla while he was married to Diana. In fact Diana was in depression for years when she found out. So it was very weird when Diana's family showed up to the wedding where Charles was marrying the woman he cheated on Diana with.

Kitty is blazing through several fashion rules but the biggest one has to be about her physicality. Kitty has a very different body than other leading supermodels. She is not skinny and waif-like and she has set new body goals for many aspiring models. Kitty has curves and she flaunts them and she never really tried to lose a lot of weight and has stayed away from diet trends.

Just like Diana, Kitty too has really famous friends. She is often seen hobnobbing with seriously rich and successful names some of whom are even Royals. Though Kitty has a series of famous BFFs she is never really seen hanging out with her Royal cousins Prince William like Harry or even Kate Middleton for that matter.

Kitty found success as a model in her mid-twenties. Most models usually start modelling from their teens. But though Kitty is one of the most successful names in European fashion, people have wondered why Kitty didn't break through as a model earlier, as 27 is quite late to start modelling.

Just like Diana, Kitty too can't seem to find much luck in her love life. The model was dating Italian tycoon Niccolo Barattieri di San Pietro who's 45-year-old. Despite their age difference they were very much in love until Niccolo set his sights on actress Elizabeth Hurley who's twice Kitty's age. It was reported that Kitty was heartbroken over the breakup as she had wanted a family with Niccolo.

Just like Diana Kitty keeps it understated when it comes to her daily attire. She usually sticks to solid colours and jackets and trousers. Diana too would opt for plaid, darker colours and simple jackets for her errand runs.
Fans have wondered if Kitty is going to be invited to the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. While she is a much bigger star now, her family does have a history with the Royals, and she would most likely be at the wedding.
