But did William really know Diana longer? He is only two years older than Harry. I think you both are right, I can see Diana maybe over doing it with Harry to make sure he didn't feel neglected. Since William probably did get more attention as the hair.
It's been said several times that Diana treated William, not just as a son, but as somewhat of a confidante during the War of the Waleses, which is a bit unfair since he was just a child. So yes, I do think that William knew Diana longer and better than Harry. Wasn't it also said that William, knowing how upset Diana was about losing her HRH title, promised to give it back when he was King one day? They were close.
But Harry was the baby, and as such was probably coddled a bit more. Especially as Diana and Charles were growing further and further apart and, like a lot of divorcing parents, took the opportunities with the children to fuss over them when in their physical custody.
