It remains to be seen as to whether Prince William and Prince Harry will meet up when the Sussexes visit the UK next month. But royal biographer Andrew Morton has told OK! that their late mother Princess Diana would be desperate for them to reconcile. Ahead of Diana's anniversary on 31 August, Andrew says she would be pained by the current rift between her sons.

While on the surface it may have seemed that Diana, Princess of Wales, led a charmed existence, her short time on Earth was never easy. After enduring a turbulent upbringing, in which her parents’ marriage bitterly broke apart, she fell into a hasty union with the Prince of Wales which eventually left her feeling miserable and alone.

Princess Diana's custom 1985 Ford Escort RS Turbo Series 1 car sold at auction Saturday for more than $850,000. Ordered and specifically made for the late Princess of Wales, the black hatchback vehicle was only used for a few years until it was returned to the manufacturer with fewer than 6,800 miles on it. "The car is believed to be unique as the first and only black RS Turbo Series 1," according to the Silverstone Auction house.

Princess Diana sold at auction Saturday for a whopping £650,000, or around $763,700.That's a huge sum, considering the folks over at UK-based Silverstone Auctions told the  they wouldn't be surprised if the car sold for just over $100,000. According to the outlet, the 1985 Ford Escort RS Turbo was Diana's car of choice when she owned it from 1985 to 1988.Fun fact: Diana preferred to drive herself around town whenever she met up with friends or went out shopping.

Princess Diana was famous for being a trailblazer when it came to the causes she supported and her cutting-edge fashion - but she also bucked royal trends with Princes William and Harry's births. Until Prince William came along in 1982, every direct heir to the British throne had been born at home. Her Majesty the Queen welcomed Prince Charles via Caesarean at Buckingham Palace, where the Buhl Room was converted into a 'miniature hospital'.

Princess Diana was planning to move to America without her sons weeks before she died, one of her former bodyguards claims. Mail Online says Lee Sansum tells in his memoir, ‘Protecting Diana: A Bodyguard’s Story’, the royal was on the verge of telling paparazzi of her plans in a bid to protect princes William and Harry from the spotlight as they holidayed with her and Dodi Al-Fayed in St Tropez in July 1997. Lee said: “She said to me, ‘There is nothing I can do in the UK.

Prince Harry was said to have “slammed the phone down” on Prince William after being confronted with witness statements portraying Meghan Markle as a “bully”, according to a new documentary.The documentary suggests that Prince William became so angry at his brother’s insistence on protecting his wife from criticism that he jumped in a car “towards Kensington Palace to go and confront Prince Harry”.The programme, which is set to be broadcast on the BFM TV news outlet in France, also says that traumatised staff resigned from the Royal Household due to “bullying” and set up a WhatsApp group called “The Sussex Survivors Club”. Set to be released next week during the 25th anniversary of the death of William and Harry’s mother Princess Diana, the series blames the behaviour of Meghan, who just released her first podcast, "for being at the heart of the break-up between William and Harry”, saying that Duchess of Sussex used her position in the Royal Family to intimidate staff while living in Kensington Palace with Harry.

Princess Diana was the “first person to rattle the cage of the monarchy”, claims the Queen’ Elizabeth II's biographer. The late Princess of Wales - who died in August 1997 in a car crash in Paris aged 36 alongside her boyfriend Dodi Al-Fayed - was the only person “in living memory” to question how the institution runs and operates but didn’t do it “intentionally” with her AIDS and landmine activism and the way she captured the national imagination. Ingrid Seward told PEOPLE magazine: "Diana was the first person to rattle the cage of the monarchy within living memory.

It’s been 25 years since Princess Diana's death, and as we approach the anniversary of her fatal car crash in the Pont de L’Alma in Paris, her former bodyguard Ken Wharfe has told us how he describes her legacy in 2022. The author, 73, told OK!: "It was her unfailing loyalty to the Queen, to the monarchy, and a commitment to making life better for ordinary people, for the homeless, the dispossessed." Ken then admitted that he thinks her eldest son - Prince William, the Duke of Cambridge - has been carrying her legacy on.

Princess Diana’s infamous letter in which she warned she could be killed in a staged car crash was only passed to French investigators six years after her fatal collision, a new documentary claims. The film ‘Investigating Diana: Death In Paris’ refers to the so-called ‘Mishcon Note’ as it was written by the Princess of Wales’ legal adviser in 1995, and is reportedly an account of what Diana said during a meeting with Victor Mishcon and her personal private secretary at the time.

A French police chief has recalled the moment she found Princess Diana's peals at the crash site in Paris. Diana, Princess of Wales sustained fatal injuries when the car she was travelling in lost control in the Pont de l’Alma tunnel in the French capital on August 31, 1997 and Brigade Criminelle chief Martine Monteil was among the first officials on the scene in the minutes after the accident. Speaking in new documentary 'Investigating Diana: Death in Paris ', Monteil explained how she found jewellery belonging to the royal at the site.

Princess Diana reportedly feared dying in a staged car accident. The princess - who died in a car crash in Paris in August 1997, aged 36 - voiced her fears in a note to Lord Mishcon, her lawyer, in October 1995. Lord Mishcon gave his contemporaneous typed account of Diana's fears to senior Metropolitan Police officers after the princess' death.

It's almost the 25th anniversary of the tragic death of Princess Diana, who passed away following a devastating car crash in Paris on 31 August 1997. Diana was just 36 when she died in the crash, which took place in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel in the French capital. Her companion, Dodi Fayed, and the vehicle's driver also lost their lives in the accident.

It's been almost 25 years since the tragic death of Princess Diana which sent shockwaves around the world.

French police chief Martine Monteil has recalled the moment she discovered Princess Diana’s pearls in the wreckage of the 1997 car crash in Paris that killed the mum-of-two. Martine was the lead investigator on the case, and searched the crime scene for “little clues” in a bid to piece together what happened. She was the first to arrive on the scene and ended up becoming “obsessed” with finding even the smallest piece of evidence.
