Diana documentary unveils hidden Royal Family insights through unheard audio clips
Diana's unheard audio clips gave insights about her strained relationship with stepmother Raine Spencer
Princess Diana’s unheard audio clips, which will be featured in the upcoming most-awaited documentary Diana: The Rest of Her Story, gave insights about the Royal Family issues.
The ABC News released a few unheard audio clips ahead of the release of the documentary on Friday.
Diana talked about her relationship with King Charles, "He was so grown-up and here was Diana, a kindergarten teacher. I mean the whole thing was ridiculous."
The late Princess of Wales later discussed King Charles’ “hatred” for her stepmother Raine Spencer in the audio tape, revealing, "he won’t even talk to mummy."
She added, "Because at Harry’s christening, Charles went up to mummy and said, ‘we were so disappointed, we thought it would be a girl’, and mummy snapped his head off and said, ‘you should realise how lucky you are to have a child that’s normal.’"
"And ever since that day, a shutter’s come down, and that’s what he does when he gets somebody answering back at him, so to speak," she continued.
Moreover, the late royal family member also spoke about her “hate” towards her stepmother.
She remarked, "I was so angry. And I said, 'I hate you so much. If only you knew how much we all hated you for what you’ve done. You ruined the house’. You spent daddy’s money.' I have said everything I possibly could and Raine said, 'you have no idea how much pain your mother put your father through.'"
The mother of two noted, "I said, 'pain, Raine? It’s one word you don’t even know how to relate to’. In my job and in my role, I see people suffer like you’ve never seen. And you call that pain? I said you’ve got a lot to learn."
The audio clips were released a day after the 26th anniversary of Diana's death on August 31, 1997.
