Prince William and Harry hit hard by Mohamed Al Fayed scandal: Princess Diana ‘planned’ to marry son Dodi
hocking allegations of sexual abuse committed by the late Mohamed Al-Fayed, former Harrods owner, have sent ripples through the royal family, especially Prince William and Prince Harry.
The Egyptian businessman’s son, Dodi Al-Fayed, was Princess Diana’s final partner before the couple tragically died in a Paris car crash in 1997.
The scandal surrounding Al-Fayed has reopened old wounds for the two princes, who had been close to both the father and son during their mother’s romance with Dodi.
Multiple women have come forward accusing Al-Fayed of sexual misconduct, with claims surfacing that he assaulted them at his properties, including the renowned London department store and other locations.
This new scandal has hit close to home for William and Harry, with their mother’s connection to Dodi bringing them into the narrative.
Diana’s possible marriage to Dodi Al-Fayed
The revelation of Al-Fayed’s alleged actions has left William and Harry grappling with the reality that their mother might have married into a family now mired in scandal.
A royal insider commented, “If Diana had married Dodi, which she was seriously considering, Mohamed would have been the boys’ step-grandfather, so this cuts very close to the bone.”
