Prince Charles, her ex-husband. “Harry and I were running around, playing with our cousins, having a good time,” confessed William. “Harry and I were in a desperate rush to say ‘goodbye,’ ‘see you later,’‘can I go off?’” Diana and her boys hadn’t seen each other for almost a month. They were all looking forward to a reunion in London the day after the phone call. Instead, her sons awoke to the shattering news their mother was dead.
