PRINCESS Diana’s pals have slammed Netflix’s The Crown after they were spotted filming the moments leading up to her death.
Witnesses claim that Netflix crews were filming disturbing scenes of Di, played by Elizabeth Debicki in a black Mercedes, just 100 yards away from the Alma tunnel in Paris, where Di was killed in an accident 25 years ago.
Netflix insists that Netflix is the “exact moment”The crash of the train will not be shown on the show, but royal friends and supporters are outraged at the scenes.
Debbie Frank, who was Diana’s astrologer, told the Mail that it will be ”terrible” for William and Harry to see a recreation of their mother’s death.
She said: “It’s obviously terrible for Diana’s children to have to see that again. It’s insensitive.
“I feel Diana’s death and the crash was the biggest shock our generation. It had such an enormous impact on the national psyche.
“I guess the makers of The Crown feel they are entitled to show a re-enactment of scenes leading up to her death and that it has dramatic impact. But relatives would think otherwise.”
Simone Simmons, a close friend of Central Recorder, said that Harry and William might be forced to recall the hit drama. “the most painful time”They are the best people in their lives.
She said: “These are cruel, sadistic and wicked people to recreate these moments. They are the lowest of all the low.
“They are rewriting history as they go along and that’s what makes me very angry.
“Netflix are deliberately reviving the most painful time in the boys’ lives.
“It’s forcing them to relive the pain, agony, and psychological torment they suffered when their mother died.
“I think it’s disgusting and sick. What is the point of them trying to upset William or Harry?
“The makers of this programme do not care about the heir to the throne and everything he has been through.
“Why do these callous, insensitive people feel the need to recreate that horrible day?
“They are going out of their way to hurt the Royal Family.”
The Crown has already been criticised for blending fact with fiction — and for a storyline showing Duke of Edinburgh Prince Philip pursuing an affair with younger peeress Penny Knatchbull.
Judi Dench (87), a veteran screen and stage actress, attacked the big-budget drama last week. “inaccurate and hurtful”It is also available in German. “crude sensationalism”.
In a letter to The Times she pleaded in vain that every episode be disclaimed from the facts. “as a mark of respect”To the late Queen.
She wrote: “The closer the drama comes to our present times, the more freely it seems willing to blur the lines between historical accuracy and crude sensationalism.
