The royal brothers were interviewed by television and Radio 1 presenter Fearne Cotton for the BBC, ahead of their concert in memory of the Princess.

William said the celebration on July 1 at Wembley Stadium was to remember the good things she did and to counter the "rumbling of people bringing up the bad" over the last 10 years.

Harry talked about how he treasured the private memories they had of her, especially when she is being criticised.

"The memories that we've got of her, we're very lucky to have because they're private between us. That's the nicest thing about it, as you see her get slated for such and such, but the personal memories that we have of her are very much private and that's where hopefully it'll always be," he said.

William spoke about defending Diana's memory and said the concert was for her.

"Hopefully it would be one of those things that she would absolutely adore because the whole point is, this is for her - it's not for any other reason," William said.

"After 10 years there's been a rumbling of people bringing up the bad and over time people seem to forget - or have forgotten - all the amazing things she did and what an amazing person she was."

The second and third in line to the throne recently launched a bid to protect their mother's memory by calling for Channel 4 to remove controversial images of the crash in which she was killed from a TV documentary.

Speaking about missing her, William said: "It's one of those things that is very sad but you learn to deal with it and there are plenty of other people out there who have got the same or worse problems than we've had."
