Royal family latest: Prince Harry ‘in talks to make documentary about Princess Diana’ after Earl Spencer’s memoir

Prince Harry is in talks to make a documentary about his mother Princess Diana, according to a report, as the fallout over Earl Spencer’s bombshell memoir continues.

The Duke of Sussex wants to make a documentary to mark the 30th anniversary of her death and is “considering the most meaningful way to honour her legacy during this important anniversary year”, a source close to Prince Harry told The Telegraph .

The documentary would be produced by Archewell Productions, the Sussexes’ production company, and would likely be bought by Netflix due to a ‘first-look’ deal between the companies, the outlet reported.

“The Duke has discussed a number of possible projects to mark the 30th anniversary of his mother Diana, Princess of Wales’s passing,” the source said, adding that “nothing has been finalised or confirmed”.

It comes after Earl Spencer has claimed he has “really nothing to do” with King Charles anymore ahead of the release of his memoir Swan Song which hits shelves on Tuesday.

Spencer claimed Charles said “we’ll forget her soon enough” after Diana died, and “sounded giddily elated – like a lottery winner” after her death in 1997.

Buckingham Palace responded by suggesting that “fraternal grief can cloud reason”.

The work by Charles Spencer tells the story of his sister Diana, Princess of Wales’s life and death. The book, described as containing “many revelations that will draw considerable attention”, was highly anticipated following the serialisation in The Mail.

It comes ahead of the 30th anniversary of the princess’ death next year.

Earl Spencer said that he told Prince William and Harry at the same time and that the latter was “completely fine” about it.

" I told them exactly the same time. And I can say that Harry is completely fine about it,” he told People.

“He said, I hope there’s nothing embarrassing about him in it. I said, 'There isn’t.' I think they were actually worried where I was going up to with the book."

Earl Spencer’s bombshell memoir is to be released on Tuesday after a week of allegations being released through serialisation in The Mail.

So far, the Earl has made claims about King Charles’ behaviour around his ex-wife’s death before he was king.
