Prince William and Prince Harry have spoken of their regret that their last conversation with their mother, Princess Diana, was a 'desperately rushed' phone call. In an ITV documentary marking 20 years since her death, the princes reflected on their final moments with her.
Prince Harry, who was 12 at the time, said: 'All I do remember is probably regretting for the rest of my life how short the phone call was.' Prince William added that the conversation weighs 'quite heavily' on his mind, noting that he and Harry were in a 'desperate rush to say goodbye' while at Balmoral.
The princes also recalled Diana's 'fun' parenting style, describing her as a 'total kid through and through.' She encouraged them to be 'naughty' and smuggled sweets into their socks. Prince William remembered her love for 'the rudest cards you could imagine' and a time she invited supermodels to Kensington Palace, leaving him 'completely and utterly awestruck.'
The documentary, titled 'Diana, Our Mother: Her Life and Legacy,' features unpublished photos and aims to keep her legacy alive. Prince William said taking part was 'a healing process' and that he keeps her memory alive for his children by 'constantly talking about granny Diana.'
