Harry weighs Diana documentary as William declines offers

Published 28 September 2026

Prince Harry is considering a documentary about his mother, Princess Diana, for the 30th anniversary of her death in 2027, while Prince William has reportedly declined several approaches to make or appear in anniversary films. The project’s status is not settled: sources close to Harry say he is still deciding how to mark the occasion and that nothing has been finalised, while another account says his team confirmed he is planning a project. The reports describe Harry as having approached some of Diana’s friends and relatives, including her brother, Earl Spencer, about taking part. No production arrangements or format have been confirmed. One account says the project could be made through Archewell Productions and associated with Netflix, but that remains an expectation rather than a confirmed plan. William’s reported decision not to participate is attributed to an account that he turned down several offers. Reports say he wants to avoid a public comparison with Harry and may prefer to mark the anniversary privately. Whether William will support any production in another way, such as by providing photographs or access to archives, has not been established.
