Prince William has declined several offers to make or appear in Princess Diana documentaries ahead of the 30th anniversary of her death on Aug. 31, 2027, The Times reports. He reportedly wants to avoid being pitted against estranged Prince Harry.
Harry is reportedly planning a documentary dedicated to Diana, with Netflix said to be in the running, but the project has not been confirmed. William and Harry made documentaries for the BBC and ITV for the 20th anniversary in 2017; William regards them as his “final catharsis” about their mother.
Friends told The Times that the anniversary will be difficult for William and that he remains very emotional about his mother's death. It is not known whether he will mark the occasion publicly; friends believe he is more likely to do so privately.
