Nigella Lawson, at age 66, is launching Bar Nigella Limited, a business that will wholesale wine, beer, and spirits. This move comes despite her past reluctance toward alcohol due to anxiety issues. The article contrasts this new venture with Prince Harry's ambitious plan to produce a documentary about his late mother, Princess Diana, by the 30th anniversary of her death next August, questioning whether he has sufficient time and resources to complete it successfully.

it → endorse → anxiety
Now, though, she is set to join Kylie Minogue, Gary Barlow, Graham Norton and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, with her own marque.

Clock is ticking on Harry's Diana documentary
Is Prince Harry giving himself an impossible task with the documentary about his late mother Princess Diana?
asserted
Harry → tick → mother
His team are now briefing that he is ‘considering’ making a show about Diana, timed to coincide with the 30th anniversary of her death next August (having hotly denied that there was anything going on a few months ago).
asserted
he → brief → death
The first – as he admitted in his book Spare – is that he has few personal memories of his mother, who died when he was only 12.
asserted
he → admit → mother
And some of those, he added in the book, were only recovered many years later, in therapy.
asserted
he → add → therapy
That means he’ll need to secure some ‘talking heads’ who do have clear and fascinating insights to offer on the subject of the ‘People’s Princess’.
asserted
who → mean → Princess
Preferably ones who haven’t told those stories multiple times before.
asserted
who → tell → ?
The second is that there are only ten months left till the 30th anniversary, which I hear from several sources isn’t enough time to put together something of this complexity.
asserted

Harry → have → project
He’d then need to be filming soon after the turn of the year, to get it edited, subbed and dubbed for international release and passed legally.
asserted
it → need → release
As things stand, there isn’t even a full proposal yet to show potential broadcasters.(Netflix still has a ‘first look’ deal with the Sussexes.)
asserted
things → stand → Sussexes
And even assuming the Prince, a rookie TV producer, can pull all of that off... won’t a documentary ruin his great objective in coming back to the UK, which is to have King Charles stand shoulder to shoulder with him at the opening of the Invictus Games in Birmingham in July next year?
asserted
Charles → assume → July
One TV source said: ‘It makes no sense.’
asserted
It → say → sense
