Well since you're in the context of a DataTemplate you cannot access the property via TemplatedParent mode, at least in your case. It refers to the element to which the template (in which the data-bound element exists) is applied. [...] Link I'm not sure, that it can be used in a DataTemplate because I've only seen it in ControlTemplates, but since the docs are not telling otherwise...

What you can do is to try find the Ancestor. E.g.

I didn't used in DataTemplates yet, so no warranty.
