Gingers vs Windsors: the fight for Diana’s legacy

Gingers vs Windsors: the fight for Diana’s legacy

Author: The Telegraph August 31, 2026 Duration: 21:16

In this special edition of The Royal T, Camilla Tominey and Hannah Furness reflect on the 29th anniversary of the death of Diana, the Princess of Wales and talk about how her legacy continues to shape the Royal family.


With Earl Spencer’s memoir about his sister on the horizon, they discuss whether its publication will deepen the rift between the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex, or force an uneasy truce. Will the public see a united front from the two Princes, or two entirely separate tributes?


Plus, Camilla and Hannah discuss how the two brothers remember their mother differently, from Prince William’s desire to let her rest following the Panorama report, to Prince Harry’s campaign to highlight her media struggles.
