"With millions around the world watching the historic celebrations surrounding Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee this spring, ABC News will air two exclusive prime-time broadcasts anchored by Katie Couric, including the only American interview with her grandsons, TRH The Duke of Cambridge Prince William -- who pays a personal and poignant tribute to his grandmother and also speaks candidly about his mother, Princess Diana, and his wedding -- and Prince Harry, as well as the American broadcast of the most star-studded event of all, the 'Concert for the Queen,'" ABC said in a news release.
