THE Princes of Wales cut short her French riviera holiday to hold a series of "crisis meetings" following the resignation of her media adviser, Jane Atkinson.
The princess flew into London in a private jet with her elder son, Prince William, who was "bored to tears" at the royal party's luxury villa near Cannes. Prince Harry stayed on with the Duchess of York and her two daughters, according to the Daily Express.
The princess and the duchess have complained to the French authorities that photographers broke into the villa's grounds and hired helicopters to buzz their pool.
