Prince Harry compares Meghan Markle’s “compassion” and “warmth” to his late mother Princess Diana in their new Netflix documentary “Harry & Meghan.”
“So much of what Meghan is and how she is, is so similar to my mom,” Harry said in the first episode of the highly anticipated docuseries. “She has the same compassion, she has the same empathy, she has the same confidence. She has this warmth about her.”

During the episode, in which Harry repeatedly slams the press for “harassing” him his entire life, he expressed his deep concerns that Markle was going to suffer the same fate as Diana, who died in a car accident while being chased by paparazzi in 1997.
“I was terrified of her being driven away by the media,” Harry admitted.

It’s not the first time that Harry has brought up the parallels between his mother — who died in a car accident while being chased by paparazzi in 1997 — and Markle.

“My biggest regret is not making more of a stance earlier on in my relationship with my wife and calling out the racism when I did,” he said on the AppleTV+ series, “The Me You Can’t See.”
“History was repeating itself. My mother was chased to her death while she was in a relationship with someone that wasn’t white, and now look what’s happened.
He added, “You want to talk about history repeating itself — they’re not going to stop until [Meghan] dies. It’s incredibly triggering to potentially lose another woman in my life, but the list is growing. And it all comes back to the same people, the same business model, the same industry.”
The “Spare” author, 38, reportedly believes Markle, 41, is also similar to Diana in other ways too.
