Diana, Princesa de Gales (Diana Frances, nascida Spencer; Sandringham, 1º de julho de 1961 — Paris, 31 de agosto de 1997) foi a primeira esposa de Charles, Príncipe de Gales, filho mais velho e herdeiro aparente da Rainha Elizabeth II. Seus dois filhos, os príncipes William e Harry, são respectivamente o segundo e o terceiro na linha de sucessão aos tronos do Reino Unido, do Canadá, da Austrália, da Nova Zelândia e de outros doze países da Commonwealth.
Após seu casamento com o Príncipe de Gales em 1981, Lady Di tornou-se uma das mulheres mais famosas do mundo: um ícone da moda, um ideal de beleza e elegância feminina[2], admirada por seu trabalho de caridade[3], em especial por seu envolvimento no combate à SIDA/AIDS e na campanha internacional contra as minas terrestres.
O casamento foi inicialmente feliz, mas terminou em 1996, após vários escândalos tanto por parte de Charles como de Diana.
Sua trágica e inesperada morte em um acidente de carro, em Paris, foi seguida de um grande luto público pelo Reino Unido e, em menor escala, pelo mundo. Seu funeral, em setembro de 1997, foi assistido globalmente por cerca de 2,5 bilhões de pessoas.
Mesmo uma década após a sua morte, a "Princesa do Povo" (termo cunhado pelo ex-primeiro-ministro britânico Tony Blair) continua sendo uma das celebridades mais constantes na imprensa, servindo de tema para milhares de livros, jornais e revistas. O seu nome é citado pelo menos 8 mil vezes por ano na imprensa britânica[5].
Os vários biógrafos de Diana divergem-se quando o assunto é a decadência de seu casamento; Andrew Morton, por exemplo, culpa a "crueldade" de Charles, enquanto que Sally Bedell Smith aponta os supostos "distúrbios mentais" de Diana; a jornalista Tina Brown, por sua vez, atribui o desastre à ingenuidade da princesa em uma ficção forjada pelos tablóides. Diana, Princess of Wales, (Diana Frances;[N 1] née Spencer;1 July 1961 31 August 1997) was the first wife of Charles, Prince of Wales. Their sons, Princes William and Henry (Harry), are second and third in line to the thrones of the United Kingdom and fifteen other Commonwealth Realms.
A public figure from the announcement of her engagement to Prince Charles, Diana remained the focus of near-constant media scrutiny in the United Kingdom and around the world up to and during her marriage, and after her subsequent divorce. Her sudden death in a car crash was followed by a spontaneous and prolonged show of public mourning. Contemporary responses to Diana's life and legacy have been mixed but a popular fascination with the Princess endures. The long awaited Coroner's Inquest concluded in April 2008 that Diana had been unlawfully killed by the driver and the following paparazzi.In the late 1980s, the marriage of Diana and Charles fell apart, an event at first suppressed, then sensationalised, by the world media. Both the Prince and Princess of Wales allegedly spoke to the press through friends, each blaming the other for the marriage's demise. Charles resumed his old, pre-marital affair with Camilla Parker-Bowles. Asked what part Camilla had played in the break-up of her marriage, Diana commented during the BBC programme Panorama, "Well there were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded."[9] In 1995, during the Panorama television interview, Diana confirmed she had an affair with her riding instructor, James Hewitt.[10] Charles had confirmed his own affair over a year earlier in a televised interview with Jonathan Dimbleby.[11] The Prince and Princess of Wales were separated on 9 December 1992.[12] While she blamed Camilla Parker-Bowles for her marital troubles, as early as October 1993, Diana was writing to a friend that she believed her husband was now in love with Tiggy Legge-Bourke and wanted to marry her.On 3 December 1993, Diana announced her withdrawal from public life. On 31 August 1997, Diana died after a car crash in the Pont de l'Alma road tunnel in Paris along with Dodi Al-Fayed and the acting security manager of the Hôtel Ritz Paris, Henri Paul, who was instructed to drive the hired Mercedes-Benz through Paris in order to elude the paparazzi.[28] Their black 1994 Mercedes-Benz S280 crashed into the thirteenth pillar of the tunnel. The two-lane tunnel was built without metal barriers in front of the pillars. None of the four occupants wore seat belts.
