I think there's nothing wrong with Diana's memory remaining a big part of William and Harry's private lives - she was their mother, after all.
Talking about her during interviews when it's relevant is natural, too, I think. Again, she was their mother, not some lady they met a couple of times when they were younger. There are a lot of questions the princes are asked where Diana could come up, even if the question wasn't specifically about her. But I think it's worth remembering that there are many, many times when William and Harry talk about Diana because they HAVE been asked a question specifically about her. They're not randomly injecting her into the conversation.
One thing I notice too when this happens is that they'll often also mention their father. Parents are normally a huge part of anyone's life. The main thing I think is when William and Kate or Harry mention Diana, its always positive.
Its the press and the public that will keep harping on anything negative. To me, the positive statements are sweet remembrances of their mum.
