Prince William has ended the royal family’s feud with the Al Fayeds by inviting Mohammed Al Fayed’s daughters to a memorial service for Princess Diana who was killed ten years ago with the girls’ brother Dodi in a car crash in Paris. William and brother Harry have written to Camilla Al Fayed and her sister Jasmine, asking them to attend the tenth anniversary event at the Guard’s Chapel in Wellington Barracks, close to Buckingham Palace here, on August 31, the tabloid Daily Mirror reported on Friday.
