Most read in Royals “I hope this book will be of interest to the many who still cherish the memory of Diana when she was alive. “I would be delighted if those too young to remember her in her heyday feel – after reading this – that they ‘get’ who she really was… “A one-off, dynamic character, full of love, charisma and self-doubt, who gave life a hell of a go, and left the world a far better place, despite exiting the stage while still so young.” The nation was left heartbroken after news broke that Diana had died in a car crash in the Pont de l’Alma road tunnel in Paris on August 31. Her funeral was held six days later at Westminster Abbey and was shown on British television, attracting an audience of 32.1 million viewers. With the eyes of the world on him, Earl Spencer delivered a eulogy in which he lashed out at the media for how they treated Diana. He also used the speech to make a thinly veiled attack on the Royal Family for stripping the late Princess of her status.
