It is believed that Prince William hopes to avoid comparisons with his brother’s media engagements, with sources suggesting he would prefer to mark the anniversary in private. Meanwhile, Prince Harry has reportedly been approached about several projects relating to the anniversary, and it was alleged earlier this month that he had already started speaking to friends of his late mother for the project.
The Duke of Sussex’s plans have been branded “deeply offensive” by broadcaster Dee Dee Dunleavy, who questioned the need for yet more documentaries about the late Princess of Wales given the number that have already been produced
“I don’t want to be mean, but I don’t consider 30 to be a significant anniversary. It’s certainly a great length of time since we lost Princess Diana, but usually like 25 and then maybe 50 are the anniversaries that are marked,” she told Rita Panahi on News24, formerly Sky News Australia.
“But when we talk about the documentary, what are we actually talking about? Is it this rumored one that Harry is supposedly working on and which I find deeply offensive?”
She remarked: “We don’t need another documentary, whether William is in it or Harry is in it. There have been thousands of words written about Diana. There have been multiple productions including movies. They bombed.”
Dee Dee added: “People want to just remember her as she was. And for goodness sakes, can they just let her rest in peace?”
He alleged that King Charles said Diana would be “forgotten soon enough” and that he sounded like a “lottery winner” when they spoke on the phone after her tragic death.
