I think it's demeaning to the people who survive, and it's demeaning to the memory of those who have sadly gone before us," veteran royal journalist Michael Cole told an outlet. "The idea of introducing a ghost into anything, let alone the ghost of Diana, after you've also done the portrayal of the moment of her death, I think is deeply, deeply offensive to the vast majority of the British public," Cole added. "You don't regularly hear me have sympathy for Harry necessarily, but the idea of your mum being portrayed as a ghost in The Crown, which apparently he watches.. " Cole, like many other royal authors and reporters, was transfixed by the first season of the drama in 2016. Seasons four and five explored the breakdown of Prince Charles and Diana's marriage, with the final season set to depict the aftermath of her death in 1997. Although it has been nearly three decades since the princess tragically passed away, Cole and others have pointed out how insensitive it is to constantly portray her past struggles in dramatized programming.
"And of course, the last time the Sussexes were in New York, we had this great tale of the two-hour chase through the streets of Manhattan and the mayor and everybody else, the police chief said it couldn't have happened here," the media personality continued. "At the same time as of course, the lovely Meghan was appearing in her off-the-shoulder beautiful outfit, the Princess of Wales, Kate was in Birmingham doing her own bit for World Mental Health Day in a much more low-key but a much more studied and a much more appreciated way," Cole shared. "It takes a special kind of brazen brass neck to stand up at the United Nations in New York, as he did today, and lecture the world about climate change when you constantly use luxury gas-guzzling private jets like a taxi service," Morgan wrote in a column. "Every year we have the World Economic Forum and we all these heads of state coming in on their own private jets talking about climate change, so I think it's time we hold our leaders accountable and really let them put their money where their mouth is and say if they truly believe in climate change - whether it be Prince Harry or whether it be a head of state - people need to be held accountable," Morgan quoted Ndaba in his article.
"We don't know if Jack Mann's become estranged from Harry or not, but in Harry's memoirs, at the end, he talks about how he was 'chastised' – in his words – after the interview by some of his closest friends," royal expert Richard Eden told a publication.

"For me, [its] just general maintenance, general mental well-being things, [such as] like walking, fresh air [and] getting away from screens is a big deal," the future king revealed to those who asked what "tools" he used to cope with issues.
"The difference is [Andrew] deeply regrets it, and it was not intentional, whereas Harry and Meghan deliberately set out to cause as much damage to Charles and Camilla as they could to sell books and TV shows.
Kate, Princess of Wales, failed to mention her and Prince William's co-founder of the Head Together initiative, Prince Harry, in a speech for World Mental Health Day.
Prince Andrew is reportedly receiving "preferential treatment" from King Charles III, while Prince Harry is consistently shunned at royal events. The difference is [Andrew] deeply regrets it, and it was not intentional, whereas Harry and Meghan deliberately set out to cause as much damage to Charles and Camilla as they could to sell books and TV shows," Andrew's confidant added. Although Andrew's actions - if true - would bring about the biggest royal scandal of the modern era, the King is allegedly of the mind that the Roberts' settlement has placed an eternal question mark around the issue.
