A royal commentator has issued a new set of allegations about the British Royal Family in a book centered on Princess Diana’s notorious BBC interview.

Andy Webb’s book, Dianarama, arrives three decades after the Panorama broadcast in which the late Princess of Wales famously declared there were “three of us” in her marriage to the then Prince Charles, now King Charles III.

Diana’s Interview That Changed Public Perception

During the sit-down, Diana openly discussed Charles’s long-standing relationship with Camilla Parker Bowles, now Queen Consort. Her honesty reshaped global views of the monarchy and sent shockwaves through the institution.

One of Webb’s most striking claims suggests that Prince William, Diana’s eldest son, still “wants to know the truth” about his mother. Diana died at 36 in a high-speed crash in Paris’s Pont de l’Alma tunnel on August 31, 1997.

William Reportedly Seeking Answers About the Interview

The Panorama interview was conducted by BBC reporter Martin Bashir. According to Webb, William is “taking steps to discover” the truth behind how the interview was secured.

The book revisits allegations that Bashir obtained the interview by presenting Earl Spencer with fake bank statements and feeding him sensational claims that people in Diana’s circle were being paid by MI5.

These tactics reportedly triggered the sequence of events that ultimately led Diana to sit down with Panorama in 1995.

William’s Concerns About BBC Conduct

William has previously said BBC executives “looked the other way, rather than asking tough questions,” believing that the interview intensified tension between his parents and contributed to Diana’s “fear, paranoia and isolation.”

A source quoted in the book describes the future King as an “implacable antagonist” who “has people on the case,” indicating that William is still quietly pushing for a complete explanation of how Bashir operated—and why the BBC failed to properly investigate his methods or stop him, despite widespread criticism.

Revisiting the Tragic Crash

The official ruling on Diana’s death concluded that the crash was caused by a combination of the driver’s intoxication and excessive speed, leading the car to lose control while being chased by paparazzi.

Diana, her partner Dodi Fayed, bodyguard Trevor Rees-Jones, and driver Henri Paul were in the Mercedes that night. Paul and Fayed died instantly. Diana was gravely injured and transported to the hospital, where she succumbed to her injuries shortly afterward.
