Love Monday TV and 53 Degrees Global are producing “Diana: The Unheard Truth” (working title), a three-part docuseries centered on five hours of audio recordings of Diana, Princess of Wales that have never been made public, with the series set to launch on Aug. 31, 2027 – the 30th anniversary of her death.

The recordings were captured in 1991 by Dr. James Colthurst, a close friend of the Princess. The tapes were covertly removed from Kensington Palace and delivered to author Andrew Morton, whose resulting biography “Diana Her True Story” altered the course of royal history. In the three decades since Diana died, fewer than one hour of the material had been heard publicly. Love Monday TV has secured full access to the archive in partnership with Morton and Colthurst, who also appear in the series alongside publisher Michael O’Mara. All three revisit the circumstances under which the Morton book was produced, including the risks Diana took and the intense scrutiny all three endured in the process.
