I see the interview in the royalist and is brillant! william and harry is the first time they talk about diana and her work especially to the diana princess of wales memorial fund.
I think it's very very nice they will do a service in agust 31 and the vconcert in wembley, just they know exactly taht diana want.
Me as diana fan I am very pround of william and harry, at last diana will honored as she was, the mother of a future king.

Official website, dedicate to the Concert for Diana (starting from tomorrow, you can buy tickets from there!) can be found here.

And here is is the video and transcript of broadcast footage for Prince William and Prince Harry’s announcement of commemorations for Diana, Princess of Wales.

But I believe that every one who have an interest in this shall never ask for any money for pay.

Well as long as they don't expect the tax-payer to foot the bill.

It has also been confirmed the senior royals, including their stepmother the Duchess of Cornwall, will attend the memorial service on 31 August, the actual anniversary of Diana's death.
Thank Heaven for small mercies.

She was his ex wife and it would hardly be right to expect him to pay anything towards it.

Perhaps the father of her last boyfriend, al Fayed, will pay, but like BeatrixFan, I hope it is not going to come from British Taxpayers, the enquiry has cost more than enough!

the monarchy ans al fayed don't are very close friends
I don't thinks william and harry work together in nothing with al fayed.
this look like a william and harry's plan with the help of cahrles and of course, with the permition of the queen.
if the boys want to do a tribute to their mother and at the same tome do a charity is fine.
Who pay the concert we don't know

We don't talk about the investigation, but was logic that a princess die i crash the british justice do an investigation

I agree Skydragon. This enquiry has cost 2 million approx. It is expected to cost a furthur 3 million when all legal fees etc are covered. So we DO talk about the investigation because there had already been one. This one was just to humour the conspiracists and it landed the British people with a bill into millions. She's cost us enough already without us paying for a concert.

Please tell me you aren't being serious. Somehow I don't think the princes would want to be associated with an event being paid for by the man who's been running around for the last decade accusing their grandfather of having had their mother murdered.

I'm sure that if the Prince of Wales is contributing to the concert, it won't be because anyone expects anything, it'll be to commemorate her years as Princess of Wales. She was a full-time member of the royal family for 15 years, and it isn't all that unreasonable for the Duchy of Cornwall to contribute to a commemorative concert.

I guess such a concert should be earning its own keep with TV rights, fandom stuff and entrance fees. BTW - did you see on the webpage that there are NO VIP-tickets? First in, first come-system? I wonder in which row they will place Daddy Charles.....
