Gone, but never forgotten. This week, Roberta and Rachel are joined by Patrick Jephson, Princess Diana’s former private secretary from 1988 to 1996. He reflects on Diana’s legacy on the 25th anniversary of her death, the many fictional portrayals (*ahem*, he’s a consultant for The Crown), the Lord Dyson report, the Martin Bashir findings and more. We’re also discussing Meghan’s profile in The Cut, the Queen’s plans for the new prime minister, a special birthday and more. You do NOT want to miss this episode.
