I forget where I read it, but I have a vague memory of an article which mentioned that, because of Princess Diana's ancestry, Prince William & Prince Harry have the most Stewart blood flowing through their veins of any member of the Royal House since the Stewart dynasty. It's still not much, but it's an improvement. Now if we could only get the princes in kilts.
