Prince Harry admits he still has questions about the tragic death of his mother, Princess Diana.
The Duke of Sussex – who was only 12 years old when she died in 1997 – made the revelation during his first televised interview following the release of explosive excerpts from his “Spare” memoir.
“There’s a lot of things that are unexplained,” he told Tom Bradby while discussing Diana’s death in a sit-down ITV interview that aired Sunday.
Harry clarified, however, that he didn’t “really see the point” of opening up another inquiry after years of reviewing the case.
He also recalled looking at the gruesome photos from the scene shortly after his mother’s death to try to understand what had happened.
Harry told Bradby that he remembered seeing paparazzi in the window taking photos as Diana was dying, rather than helping her.
“I couldn’t comprehend [her death],” he admitted.
Comparing Diana’s death to recent fears over his own life, Harry said he was “genuinely terrified about what was going to happen” to him and wife Meghan Markle.
The mutual fear led to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex eventually stepping down as senior members of the royal family and moving from the UK to California in 2020.
Amid their ongoing feud with the royal family, Harry said in the new interview that he hopes to patch things up someday, especially with his father, King Charles III, and his brother, Prince William.
“I want reconciliation but first there needs to be accountability,” he said, claiming he was told by certain members of the royal family that he was “delusional and paranoid.”
