It was a rumour that dogged Princess Diana for most of Harry’s life, and it may have just been confirmed.
Of all the sordid rumours about Princess Diana, this one was surely the most controversial: that Prince Charles was not the father of her second child, Harry.
Rumours about Prince Harry’s paternity first began to circulate in 1994 when his mother’s affair with former calvary officer James Hewitt, 56, became public. Although James denied the claims for over a decade, insisting that his affair with Diana did not begin until Harry was two-years-old, he has now given his backing to a controversial play suggesting that he could be the Prince’s father.
Jon Conway, writer of the West End production – Truth, Lies, Diana, claims that James personally admitted his relationship with Diana started 18 months before Harry was born and allowed his portrayal in the play.
An explosive scene sees James tell a journalist: “Diana and I started our relationship more than a year before Harry was born. Now that doesn’t prove that I am his father. It’s just the inconvenient truth.”
According to the Daily Mail Australia James confirmed that he knows author Jon Conway and spoke to him about his relationship with Diana, and said he had no doubt the play would be ‘accurate’.
Jon said, "I have been talking to James over a period of two years. I met him and he told me some quite remarkable things that have never been said in the public domain, particularly about when his relationship with Diana started."
