Prince William and Prince Harry have both condemned the BBC after the network admitted it engaged in “deceitful behavior” to secure that now infamous 1995 TV interview with Princess Diana.
William said, “The deceitful way the interview was obtained substantially influenced what my mother said,” and he even blamed it for ending his parents’ marriage. William added, “BBC’s failures contributed significantly to her fear, paranoia and isolation that I remember from those final years with her.”
Prince Harry blasted the BBC as well as all British media, saying, “The ripple effect of a culture of exploitation and unethical practices ultimately took her life.”
An official BBC inquiry recently found that journalist Martin Bashir used “deceitful methods,” including false documents and trickery, to gain access to the Princess for his interview. During the controversial sit-down, Diana famously said that “there were three of us in this marriage,” referring to Prince Charles’ relationship with Camilla Parker-Bowles.
