This summer Diana, Princess of Wales would have turned 65. The late mother of Princes William and Harry is still remembered, loved, and talked about today, whether it's through her own sons or charities and patronages associated with her.

To celebrate the legacy of the People's Princess, HELLO! is hosting an intimate live podcast event on Wednesday 24 June at the Taj 51 Buckingham Gate Suites and Residences in London, a five-star hotel that was visited by Diana herself as well as the then-Prince Charles, and the late Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip.

At this one-off event at the hotel's newly refurbished Ballroom, just a stone's throw away from Buckingham Palace, our in-house royal experts and hosts of A Right Royal Podcast, Emily Nash and Andrea Caamano, will be quizzing our guest speakers, authors Ingrid Seward and Andy Webb and designer Jacques Azagury, on all things Diana.

Step beyond the headlines as our podcast panel shares untold stories about the late Princess. Who better to regale us with anecdotes than Ingrid – who enjoyed "girly chats" at the palace and even spoke to Diana weeks before her death – and Jacques, who famously designed bespoke pieces for the royal style icon? Andy, meanwhile, will unpick the notorious 1995 Panorama scandal as he shares extracts from his thrilling book Dianarama; signed copies will be available to buy on the day.

As with our previous live event celebrating the late Queen's centenary, we will also open the floor to you, our valued audience, for a Q&A session.

During this intimate event, you'll also be treated to a whimsical afternoon tea and have the opportunity to see one of Diana's dresses in person – and have a photo with it. You'll also go home with a luxury goodie bag including beauty products from royal-approved brands.

Guests will be treated to A Midsummer Night's Dream Afternoon Tea (valued at £85pp) while listening to the fascinating conversation
