PRINCESS Diana cried herself to sleep the night Harry was born, a TV documentary will claim Thursday night.
Former butler Paul Burrell, who worked with Diana for ten years until her death, reveals: “I could see the cracks in the marriage getting wider and wider.
“Diana confided in me that on the night Harry was born, she cried herself to sleep. She said, ‘I knew my marriage was over’.”
Burrell also said Prince Charles told her his duty as a husband was “done”.
He added: “He’d provided the country with an ‘heir and a spare’, and could now resume his relationship with Miss Camilla Parker Bowles.”
Channel 4’s Princess Diana’s Wicked Stepmother also tells of her initial hatred for her dad’s second wife, Countess Raine Spencer, before they reconciled.
Diana confessed to her voice coach Peter Settelen she once pushed Raine down the stairs at the family’s ancestral home, Althorp.
She and brother Earl Spencer kicked their stepmum out of the property the day after their father’s death — despite his wish for her to remain for at least six months.
A former pal of Raine tells the show how the hatred was mutual, with the Countess accusing Diana of “never reading a book in her life”, and sniping:
“She has nothing to talk about beyond Duran Duran.”
Yet Diana later grew close to Raine and fell out with her own mum Frances Shand Kydd.
