Diana\u2019s brother Earl Spencer released his memoir – titled Swan Song: Diana, My Sister – last week and is continuing on his book tour around America, saying the book is a \u2018loving tribute from a brother to his sister\u2019. Meanwhile, it is believed Prince Harry<\/a> is in talks to produce a documentary about his late mother for the anniversary, which will be marked in August 2027.<\/p>\n The one person who is believed to not be taking part in any major project for the anniversary is Prince William<\/a>, as the Mirror<\/a> \u2019s royal editor Russell Myers said the Prince of Wales has been let down by some of his family as they continue talking about his late mother.<\/p>\n Content cannot be displayed without consent<\/p>\n On this week\u2019s episode of the Mirror\u2019s Pod Save the King YouTube<\/a> show, Russell said: \u201cHe\u2019s in this position where a lot of people are talking about Diana and earning money off her legacy, and I wonder if we have now crossed the boundaries of taste and decency.\u201d<\/p>\n The Mirror\u2019s deputy royal editor Jennifer Newton added: \u201cWell while there\u2019s people making money off Diana, the only person who isn\u2019t is her other son William, and I think people have a lot of sympathy for him in this situation because Diana was his mother too.\u201d<\/p>\n Russell agreed as he explained: \u201cThere is an awful lot of sadness in William\u2019s mind. I mean, think of all the people he\u2019s been let down by. His brother, his sister-in-law, and now his uncle. He\u2019s angry because he\u2019s been let down again, but there is a deep sadness from his point of view.\u201d<\/p>\n Russell said William has been ‘let down’ by Harry (Image: AP Photo\/Martin Meissner)<\/p>\n Prince William has reportedly declined several offers<\/a> to take part in documentaries about his late mother as the 30th anniversary of her death approaches. The Prince of Wales, who was just 15 years old when his mother tragically died in 1997, appeared in a documentary in 2017 alongside his brother Prince Harry<\/a> for the 20th anniversary of Diana\u2019s passing.<\/p>\n The film saw the brothers recall fond memories of their mother and speak proudly of her legacy, which they are both ensuring will carry on. At the time the documentary was released, William alluded that it was the only time he would speak so openly about Diana.<\/p>\n Russell Myers and Jennifer Newton on this week’s episode of Pod Save The King <\/p>\n With relations between William and Harry now fraught, it is believed the Prince of Wales has rejected the documentary offers to avoid a situation where he and Harry are \u201cpitted against each other\u201d, according to the Sunday Times<\/a>. Last week, sources close to the Duke of Sussex<\/a> confirmed that Harry is in talks to produce a documentary<\/a> about his mother for the 30th anniversary of her death, and has already approached a number of her friends and relatives about taking part in a potential programme.<\/p>\n A source close to Harry told the Mirror<\/a> : \u201cThe Duke has discussed a number of possible projects to mark the 30th anniversary of his mother Diana, Princess of Wales<\/a> \u2019s passing, and is still considering the most meaningful way to honour her legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n Get the inside scoop on the monarchy with Mirror Royal<\/p>\n WHATSAPP GROUP: Be first to get the biggest royal bombshells and exclusives to your phone by joining our Royal WhatsApp here.<\/a><\/p>\n We also treat our community members to special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners.
