Aug. 30, 2022 – NBC News NOW will present Diana and the Modern Monarchy, a 30-minute, primetime special hosted by NBC News senior international correspondent Keir Simmons, focused on Princess Diana’s legacy in the 25 years following her death. The special airs tonight, Aug. 30 at 10:30 p.m. ET.
Throughout the special, Simmons will explore how Princess Diana’s sons Prince William and Prince Harry are carrying on her legacy following her tragic passing, and how her influence continues to shape the British Monarchy to this day.
