The Duke of Sussex once believed his mother faked her own death to escape the press and has told how he wanted the inquiry into her fatal car crash to be reopened. Harry also says, in his controversial memoir Spare, that both he and his brother the Prince of Wales “were talked out” of calling for a reinvestigation of her death “by the powers that be”.
He adds that he and William felt the final written report on the princess’s death was a “joke” and an “insult” and “riddled with basic factual errors and gaping logical holes”, according to the US website Page Six. “It raised more questions than it answered,” Harry wrote.
Harry, who learned of his mother’s death in 1997 while staying at Balmoral in Scotland, described how with nothing to do but roam the castle, a suspicion took hold that it was all “a trick” played by Diana.
