Princess Diana's last call with her children, and Princes William and Harry reveal: We regret the rest of our lives
She kept the departed, the glamorous Princess of Wales, and the owner of the hearts of millions of Americans, Diana, years after the tragic and terrifying accident, which was a nightmare that will never end for her children, Princes Harry and William, in the last statements of the royal family, Princes William and Harry expressed their regret over the last conversation they had with their mother Princess Diana and they said that phone call was "quite quick".
In a documentary film entitled "Diana, Our Mother: Her Life and Legacy," produced to coincide with the twentieth anniversary of Diana's death in a car accident in Paris on August 31, 1997, the two princes said that they spoke with their mother prior to her death.
"Harry and I were too quick to hang up, you know, see you later," Prince William said in the film, which will be shown in Britain on ITV and in the United States on HBO on Monday. I knew then of course what was going to happen... I wouldn't have been so bored about it (the call) and everything else."
"She was the caller from Paris," Prince Harry said. "I can't necessarily remember what she said, but what I do remember is my regret for the rest of my life about how short that call was."
Nick Kent, the film's executive producer, told Reuters he saw the film as a window into "Diana's private life".
"No one told the story from the point of view of the two people who loved and knew Diana the most: her two sons," he added.
In the film, the two princes remember Diana's sense of humour, and Harry describes her as "one of the cutest parents". They also remember the pain they felt after Diana's divorce from their father, Prince Charles, and how they dealt with their mother's death and what happened after it.
Although the film deals with aspects of Diana's life, such as her charitable work, including fighting HIV and land mines, it does not address other aspects, such as her extramarital affair.
The filmmakers say that the British royal family has been very open, and did not ask not to touch on a point, but wanted the new film to be presented and be different.
"What we were thinking is that Prince William and Prince Harry would be happy to show this movie to their children in the coming years and tell them that's what your grandmother was," Kent said.
