He admitted his thoughts to Prince William, after his older brother missed a yearly ski trip to Klosters because he hated posing for photographers. Harry claims that William told him he also used to believe the same.
Princess Diana was just 36 when she was killed in a car crash in Paris in August 1997.

In his book, Harry recalls the devastating moment he learned of his mother's death. The Prince, who was 12 at the time, reveals that his father Charles sat on the end of his bed, calling him "dear son" and explaining that there had been a car accident and that Diana had not recovered from her injuries.
Harry says that he did not cry and that his father did not hug him, but instead put his hand on his knee and told him that it would be ok. He realised that Charles had already broken the news to William.
