“I never wanted to harm Diana in any way and I don’t believe we did,” the journalist said in aninterviewwithThe Sunday Times. “Everything we did in terms of the interview was as she wanted, from when she wanted to alert the palace, to when it was broadcast, to its contents.”
“I can’t imagine what their family must feel each day,” he continued in reference to Diana’s sons.
In his interview withThe Sunday Times, Bashir also spoke out against a statement William made after the report was released, in which the royal criticized the BBC.
Bashir has denied this. “Even in the early 1990s, there were stories and secretly recorded phone calls. I wasn’t the source of any of that,” he told the newspaper. “I don’t feel I can be held responsible for many of the other things that were going on in her life, and the complex issues surrounding those decisions.”
While speaking withThe Sunday Times, Bashir also specifically said that showing Spencer the forged bank documents “was wrong” and something he “deeply regrets” — although he claimed that “had no bearing” on his 1995 sit-down with Diana.
