Another chapter in the royal feud between Prince William and Prince Harry could be playing out, with their late mother at the center of it all.

On August 31, 1997, the two brothers’ worlds were turned upside down when Princess Diana was killed in a car crash in Paris. The 30th anniversary of that tragedy is less than two years away. There are plans for a special tribute in the works.

It appears the brothers each have a different way of revisiting their mother’s tragic death on the small screen. That could generate more friction between the pair, with rival TV tributes maybe on the horizon.

Prince Harry is no longer performing his royal duties, but he’ll never forget his mother’s death. A source recently told Radar that: “Harry is planning a series about Diana in 2027. He’s focused on finding the right partners, and he’s already spoken with producers.”

“He wants to do a forensic look at her crash, and it could be one of the TV events of the century if it’s done right.”

According to reports, Harry wants Archewell Productions, the company he and his wife, Meghan Markle, founded, to produce it.

The idea of a documentary may not be appealing to William, but knowing his brother intends to release this project may change his mind. “If he hears Harry is doing a warts-and-all film on their mom, he will want to do a gentler one. The 30th anniversary of Di’s death could turn into a battle of their documentaries,” one insider claimed. A documentary rivalry may cause irreparable damage to the brothers’ relationship.

“It would also mean William would probably cut Harry out of his life forever,” according to the insider.

“If Harry is now going to do another massive Netflix show, effectively claiming her legacy, William will have to fight back, whether that’s with an interview or a documentary of his own,” another insider believes.

Since moving to the United States, Harry has been highly critical of the monarchy, although William and his wife, Kate Middleton, have remained silent. The brothers have been in public on occasion, although it has been rare. In 2021, they unveiled a statue of Diana in the Sunken Gardens of Kensington Palace.

To this day, there is plenty of mystery surrounding their mother’s death and her companion, Dodi Fayed. In 1999, French investigators ruled the crash to be an accident. However that has been in doubt, with Dodi’s father, Mohamed Al Fayed claiming there may have been foul play.
