Prince Harry in talks for Diana documentary as uncle's memoir sparks royal row

–

Neutral summary

Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, is considering making a documentary about his late mother, Princess Diana, to commemorate the 30th anniversary of her death in August next year, The Daily Telegraph reported. He has reportedly reached out to friends and family members connected to Diana, including his uncle Earl Spencer, as he explores how best to honour her memory. No plans for the anniversary have yet been confirmed, and any such documentary would likely be produced through the Sussexes' Archewell Productions company. The news emerged as Harry attended the annual WellChild Awards in London on Monday evening, his third public outing since returning to Britain, where he declined to answer questions about his family. Meanwhile, Earl Spencer's memoir, “Swan Song: Diana, My Sister,” was released worldwide on Tuesday, containing allegations that King Charles appeared “jovial” after Diana's death and other criticisms of the royal family. Buckingham Palace responded with a strongly worded statement, rare by the measured standards of the royal household. Spencer defended the book, saying it gives him the opportunity to “lay certain myths to rest.” The Independent reported that King Charles appeared in public amid the controversy, while the New York Post noted that both Harry and Prince William awkwardly dodged questions about the memoir.
