Princess Diana’s Death: 18 Years Later


On Aug. 31, 1997, millions of people all over the world woke up to the news that Princess Diana–alongside her companion Dodi Fayed and their driver Henri Paul–had died as a result of a fatal car crash in Paris, France. An inquest attributed the crash to the grossly negligent driving by Paul, as well as paparazzi chasing their vehicle… just to get a mere photo of the princess and Fayed.

It has been 18 years since that tragic day and many revel on the fact that she would be so proud of her two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, as well as her two grandchildren, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

“I like to be a free spirit. Some don’t like that, but that’s the way I am.” ~Princess Diana (July 1, 1961 – Aug. 31, 1997).

 

Born on this Day: Princess Diana

Born on this Day: Diana Spencer, who was more commonly known as Diana, Princess of Wales, was born on July 1, 1961. Her name became synonymous around the world when she married Prince Charles on July 29, 1981. The marriage between the two ended in divorce in Aug. 1996.

Sadly, the princess was killed in a car crash in Paris, France on Aug. 31, 1997, along with her companion, Dodi Fayed, and their limo driver, Henri Paul.

I believe if Princess Diana would have been alive today, she surely would have reveled in and would have doted on her son Prince William’s two children–Prince George and Princess Charlotte. ☺ 👑

“I don’t go by the rule book… I lead from the heart, not the head.” ~Princess Diana
