Prince Harry, along with Meghan and their children Archie and Lilibet, has reportedly visited the grave of his late mother Princess Diana at Althorp House in Northamptonshire.

Now, according to the insiders, Harry has fueled fresh tension with Prince William following the trip as the Duke has been accused of filming a deeply private family visit as part of a planned documentary marking the 30th anniversary of her death.

The Radar Online, citing the insiders, has reported that recording equipment was present during the Prince Harry’s visit to Diana’s grave, prompting concern among relatives.

The close insider said, "There was a clear awareness that elements of the visit could be captured for a future project like a Netflix documentary from Harry, or social media posts, which has unsettled members of the family."

Another source said: "This was meant to be a moment of reflection, but there were worries it might be reframed for a wider audience."

"The intention could well be to include deeply personal material in a documentary tied to the anniversary next year," a separate source claimed.

Prince Harry’s move have reignited longstanding tensions between him and William.

The sources claimed, William is said to be particularly troubled by the suggestion that their mother’s gravesite – long regarded as a place of quiet remembrance – could be used in connection with a commercial media project.

"He feels strongly that certain spaces should remain entirely private, especially given their personal significance," another source close to William has said.
