Jemima Khan, a producer on Impeachment: American Crime Story, says she agreed to serve as a consultant to The Crown creator Peter Morgan because of her closeness with Diana. “In 2019, Peter Morgan asked me to cowrite on the fifth series of The Crown, particularly those episodes which concerned Princess Diana’s last years before she died,” she told The Sunday Times. “After a great deal of thought, having never spoken publicly about any of this before, I decided to contribute.” Khan adds: “When our cowriting agreement was not honoured, and when I realized that particular story line would not necessarily be told as respectfully or compassionately as I had hoped, I requested that all my contributions be removed from the series and I declined a credit."
