Spending More Time on the Princess

This past Thursday, August 31st was the 20th anniversary of the tragic and untimely death of Princess Diana. We talked about her to end last week, but can’t help but spend more time on this amazing woman. She married Charles, Prince of Wales, and was next in line to succeed the Queen until her death.

How popular is the Princess, some two decades later? The controversial documentary called ‘Diana in Her Own Words’ airing on television in the UK and on the National Geographic cable channel became the highest rated TV show of each channel of the season.

Never been seen video and audio take the viewer back to early Diana, complete with unedited emotion and words, from her royal wedding to life inside the castle. Both boys William and Harry have mixed emotions regarding their mother’s candid thoughts, from her battle to keep Charles away from Camilla, to her unhappiness with her roles as Princess.

Diana died in a Paris car accident on August 31st, 1997, shaking the kingdom to its knees.
