Prince Harry furious over auction of Princess Diana's outfits after Althorp fire

Prince Harry has reportedly vowed to reclaim his late mom Princess Diana’s legacy after news broke that over 200 of her outfits will be auctioned on June 26 in Beverly Hills.

The auction, run by Julien’s Auctions, will include some of her most iconic looks, with part of the proceeds going to charity.

According to sources, the Duke of Sussex regrets selling many of the late Princess of Wales’ gowns back in 1997 and now wants to recover more of her belongings.

“Since leaving the UK, Harry’s developed a deep need to feel close to his mum,” a source told Woman’s Day. “He’s on a mission to reclaim her possessions and Meghan’s encouraging it.”

The recent fire at Diana’s childhood home, Althorp House, has only strengthened his desire to protect her legacy, the report added.

“He can now see they’re vital threads of his mother’s enduring legacy,” the insider added. “Seeing how her childhood home has been neglected enrages Harry.:

“He can’t believe his father would allow it to get like that. It’s made Harry even more determined to reclaim as many of her lost things as possible.”

This comes amid reports that Harry reportedly asked his uncle, Earl Charles Spencer, for advice about changing his surname from Mountbatten-Windsor to Spencer, Diana’s maiden name.

However, according to royal commentator Charlotte Griffiths, the Earl Spencer advised the Duke of Sussex against his idea.

"He wanted to change his name to Spencer, and he approached his uncle and said 'I want to drop the Mountbatten-Windsor name', which was the name inherited from the Queen and Prince Philip,” she told People's Channel.

"It means a lot to the Royal Family, that surname, but he for some reason wants to get rid of it.

"And he asked his uncle, and his uncle very wisely said 'this is a terrible idea, it's legally fraught, just don't do it. This is for the birds and this is madness.’”
