DIANA BRINGS SHORT TRUCE IN SONS’ FEUD

William & Harry agree on statue honoring mom

-

FEROCIOUSL­Y feuding brothers William and Harry called a truce long enough to agree on a final design for a sculpture of their beloved dead mother, Princess Diana.

The image of Di, whose life was snuffed out at age 36 in a still-controvers­ial 1997 Paris tunnel car crash, is being created by sculptor Ian RankBoardl­ey and set for unveiling on July 1, which would be her 60th birthday.

A source says the memorial “will have been signed off by William and Harry,” meaning the clashing princes, who no longer talk, have agreed to the sculptor’s plan.

“At least they didn’t carry their feud into their mom’s memorial,” says a royal insider. “Still, the sad state of their relationsh­ip continues.”

Di’s sons were once closer than two peas in a pod.

But a rift began mushroomin­g after William, now 38, urged his 36-year-old bro to slow down his romance with then TV actress Meghan

Markle, 39.

Instead, Harry plunged into a whirlwind romance and wed Meghan in 2018.

Since then, her high-maintenanc­e ways helped sever Harry’s ers claim.

He’s been stripped of his titles and royal allowance and moved to California, where he and Meghan are hunting for megabucks business deals.

The couple’s recent CBS interview widened the royal rift by branding the royals racist and claiming their cold treatment made Meghan suicidal.

“The boys have agreed on the memorial,” notes the insider. “But it’s scary to think of the potential fireworks when Harry shows up for the unveiling this summer — without his pregnant wife — if he does, indeed, return to Britain.”
