Journalist Martin Bashir interviewed Princess Diana for the BBC show Panorama in 1995.
In one of the more titillating moments during the conversation, Diana admitted to a five-year affair with Major James Hewitt, an former cavalry officer in the British Army. Their relationship was tested when Hewitt deployed for the Gulf War, and they broke up for good after news coverage exposed them.
The most scandalous part of this affair? The media speculates that Hewitt is actually Prince Harry’s biological father. Many outlets note the similar facial features and prominent red hair. However, Hewitt insists the dates don’t match up; allegedly he and Diana did not begin their affair until after Harry was born.
