The writer of a play about the late Princess Diana has dismissed claims it suggests James Hewitt is Britain’s Prince Harry’s father.
Jon Conway – who wrote ‘Truth, Lies, Diana’ – claims the reports suggesting Prince Charles may not be Harry’s father have "run away with that story" and insists it is untrue.
The theatre producer claims that rather than suggest Mr. Hewitt – a former member of the British Army who had an affair with the late Princess – is her youngest son’s father, it instead unearths "secrets about Diana and her death the establishment have tried to hide."
He added to BBC’s Newsbeat: "At no point did or does [Hewitt] claim he’s the father of Prince Harry … The point we’re making is that it would appear that the palace and certain sections of the media have conspired not to tell the whole truth."
Princess Diana died in a tragic car crash in Paris in 1997 when Harry was just 12-years-old and his brother Prince William 15-years-old.
Despite previously insisting he hadn’t met Diana – who divorced Harry and William’s father Prince Charles in 1996 – until Harry was a toddler, he’s reported to have told Conway that he had in fact known her before the 1984 birth of her youngest son.
However, he’s previously insisted that there is "no possibility whatsoever" that he is the father of the flame haired royal.
