The BBC’s failures in its interview with his mother, according to the Duke of Cambridge, fueled her paranoia and worsened his parents’ relationship.

On Thursday, Prince William and Prince Harry blamed the BBC for Princess Diana’s death, claiming that a bombshell interview she gave in 1995, gained by a system of forgery and deception, had irreversibly ruined her life.

The disgraced reporter’s web of deception “substantially influenced” what Princess Diana did, according to Prince William, which “was a major contribution to making my parents’ relationship worse.”

Following a damning investigation on its dramatic 1995 interview with Princess Diana, the revered British broadcaster BBC is being questioned over its credibility.

The 1995 BBC Panorama interview with Princess Diana was branded ‘unethical’ by Prince Harry, while furious William said Martin Bashir’s ‘lurid and false claims’ to win it fueled their mother’s ‘paranoia and isolation’ in her final years.

Prince William said he was “most saddened” Diana never knew she had been misled until an investigation revealed the BBC had failed to meet its expectations.

Following the scathing conclusions of an impartial investigation into the BBC’s actions in landing its “scoop of the century,” The Duke of Cambridge made an extraordinary and extremely personal filmed speech calling for the BBC’s flagship investigative programme to never air again.

After an inquiry found that one of the BBC’s journalists used “deceptive behavior” to win the interview and that the organisation covered up the misconduct for 25 years, Britain’s justice secretary said Friday that the government would revisit the laws regulating regulation of the broadcaster.

After previously opting against a criminal investigation, the Met Police said it would evaluate the latest report.

Prince William’s remarks come after a damning independent investigation found that Bashir, a little-known reporter at the time, “deceived and induced” Diana’s brother Earl Spencer into setting up a meeting with the princess. The journalist allegedly hired a graphic artist to falsify bank accounts and checks to make it seem as if members of the Spencer household and the royal household were being paid to spy on Diana, according to the 127-page study.

Incredulous William went on to say the Panorama “effectively established a false narrative that has been commercialised by the BBC and others for over a quarter of a century.”

His California-based brother, Prince Harry, also referred to Lord Dyson’s scathing report into how the interview was received, saying his mother “lost her life” as a result of it.

Nothing has improved since our mother died as a result of this. We protect all by preserving her memory and upholding the integrity with which she lived her life “he said.

Princess Diana told the BBC in 1995 that the marriage had failed because Charles, who was 47 at the time, was still in love with an old flame, Camilla Parker Bowles, who was 48 at the time.

The inquiry further looked into the BBC’s own internal investigation, which was found to be “woefully ineffective.” when allegations surfaced in 1996. It also said that BBC officials involved in a “cover-up” including former Director-General Tony Hall, who was the BBC’s news boss at the time.

As the BBC rushed yesterday to give written apologies to the Queen, the Prince of Wales, and Princes William and Harry, industry sources said the hammer strike might be fatal.

Diana, who was 34 at the time, said she was heartbroken when she learned in 1986, five years after her engagement, that Charles had rekindled his romance with Camilla. She said she was so distraught that she purposefully injured herself in an attempt to get attention.

“There were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded,” Diana admitted.

The Duke of Sussex expressed gratitude to those who took “some form of accountability” for “owning it,” but added that “the ripple effect of a culture of exploitation and unethical practices ultimately took [Diana’s] life.”

It’s difficult to overestimate William’s intensity of emotion.

Tim Davie, the BBC’s director-general, said on Thursday that the study found some “clear failings” and that the interview process “fell far short of what audiences have a right to expect.”

“We are very sorry for this,” Davie said. The BBC has stated that any awards given in connection with the interview would be forfeited.

Instead of blaming “rogue reporter” Martin Bashir, William chastised the BBC’s top brass for watching over a “cover up.”

The princess’ interview with now-disgraced BBC correspondent Martin Bashir was widely seen as a retort to her husband’s publicly broadcast confession that he had broken his marriage vows in 1994.

The ‘rogue reporter’ commissioned false bank statements to win his interview with Princess Diana – but covering up his ‘deceitful behaviour’ in a ‘shocking blot’ on the BBC’s almost 100-year history.

The original Panorama interview programme, according to Prince William, has “no legitimacy” and should never be broadcast again.

Bashir announced his resignation as BBC News’ religion editor last week, citing a need to concentrate on his health after a heart surgery.

William blasted the reporter’s “lurid and false claims about the Royal Family,” including sickening allegations that the Queen had an eating disorder, Prince Edward was undergoing private AIDS care, and Camilla was depressed.

Despite the false bank accounts, Bashir insisted that a letter from Diana herself proved that she had not been influenced by them in her decision to be interviewed by him – an interview in which he was “immensely proud.”

Earl Spencer went public with concerns about how the interview was obtained, prompting the BBC to commission an investigative investigation last year.

Diana’s fears that Prince Charles was in love with and having an affair with her children’s nanny Tiggy Legge-Bourke were played into the deceit.

Diana surrendered much of her royal privileges as a result of their divorce. The princess died in a Paris car crash two years after the chat, when she and a friend were being chased by paparazzi.

Diana’s former private secretary, Patrick Jephson, said the interview “destroyed remaining links with Buckingham Palace” and exposed her to “people who didn’t have her best interests at heart”
