Andrew Morton has revealed in HELLO!'s A Right Royal podcast that like his mother Princess Diana, Prince Harry will have no regrets over writing his record-breaking memoir, Spare.

"Harry will have thought long and hard before doing this, but he also has the undivided support of his wife, which is very different. I mean, this is a huge contrast between Harry and Diana, Diana was talking about a broken marriage, an unhappy marriage. Harry's talking about unhappiness with an institution."
He continued: "Diana, and let's just get straight, never regretted for a living second, having cooperated with the book and even wrote to us to say as much. There's been all kinds of speculation to say, 'Oh, she regretted it.' She never did.

"I believe that Diana, Her True Story, really transformed her life. It gave her the power, and it gave her the sense that she could be an independent humanitarian. And we saw that in the last few months, couple of years of her life, where she looked super glamorous, she looked very controlled.
"And she looked as though she was making sense of her life. And I was very proud of being involved in that process."
