Dianarama

The death of Princess Diana on 31 August 1997 was one of the most dramatic events in recent history. This book will demand a complete reassessment of events leading up to the tragedy. Dianarama is the untold, inside story of the deception and entrapment of Princess Diana, and the cover-up that followed.

Andy Webb, the writer and award-winning filmmaker who obtained the secret files that first broke the story of Princess Diana's betrayal by journalist Martin Bashir, now exclusively reveals the true extent of the deception the Princess experienced before giving her iconic 1995 Panorama TV interview, and how key players at the BBC then devised an elaborate cover-up to hide what happened, whilst leaving Diana to her fate. Andy Webb's unrivalled insider access to the key players in the drama ensures a thrilling first-hand narrative, putting the reader inside the room where each key decision was taken. The action spans thirty years, switching from the moment BBC reporter Martin Bashir first contrived his dossier of forged bank statements in 1995 to the 2024 courtroom where Webb faced the BBC's elite legal squad to demand the publication of 10,000 pages of highly contested documents relating to the scandal. A story for the ages, the fate of Princess Diana will be debated by scholars and gossips centuries from now. This book, filled with revelations which have not yet entered the public record, will become a key part in the first draft of history.
