Thursday, November 20 marks the 30-year anniversary of Princess Diana's shocking BBC Panorama interview, and for Prince William, it's a reminder of a decades-long "wound." Journalist Andy Webb has been investigating the BBC's coverup surrounding the 1995 interview for decades, and his new book Dianarama—released Thursday in the U.K. and November 25 in the United States—reveals the Prince of Wales's thoughts on the controversial story.
BBC journalist Martin Bashir used deceptive methods to convince Diana into sitting down with him in 1995, including showing Diana's brother, Earl Spencer, fake documents showing people in the royal household were being paid off to spy on her. Princess Diana admitted to adultery and delivered numerous bombshell statements about the Royal Family in the interview, leading Queen Elizabeth to insist Diana and Prince Charles—who were separated at the time—divorce.
