PRINCE William has hired Princess Diana’s divorce lawyers in a huge break with tradition.
The Prince, 42, wants to “be his own man” and has made a bold new move, a source claimed.
His late mum Princess Diana was extremely close with her lawyer Lord Mischon, who owns the Mishcon de Reya firm.
Deputy chairman Anthony Julius represented Diana throughout her very public divorce from King Charles in 1996.
The Princess even confided in Lord Mischon strong fears she would be murdered in a fake car accident.
He recorded her concerns and handed them in to the Metropolitan Police – who locked it away.
In the letter, Diana said she was terrified “efforts would be made if not to get rid of her by some accident in her car, such as a pre-prepared brake failure, at least to see that she was so injured or damaged as to be declared unbalanced [in her mind]”.
Just two years later, tragedy struck when the Princess was killed in Paris.
The mum-of-two died with Dodi Fayed, and driver Henri Paul in 1997.
However, the note expressing her worries was not given to the French authorities until six years later.
Now, Prince William has decided to use Diana’s lawyers – instead of King Charles’, as reported by the Mail.
In a break with tradition Wills has hired Mishcon de Reya and left a long standing relationship with his father’s choice of firm, Harbottle & Lewis.
A source said: “William wanted to strike out on his own.
“He did not want to continue using his father’s lawyers. It’s as simple as that. He wants to be his own man.”
Another added: “William wants to do things differently from his father, and wants to be seen to do them differently”.
A Kensington Palace spokesman declined to comment.
The alleged move has reportedly left a bad taste with Harbottle & Lewis after representing the Royal Family for decades.
The royals in particular had formed a close bond with Media law specialist, and firm partner, Gerrard Tyrrell.
Harbottle & Lewis were there in 2006 when the phone-hacking scandal led to both William and Harry’s devices being compromised.
Meanwhile, at Mishcon de Reya, deputy chairman Anthony Julius has continued to support Prince William through the years.
He is one of the founding trustees of the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund and was vice-president until it shut down in 2012.
