    Princess Diana

    This is the 10 year anniversary of her death. I watched an interview tonight with Martin Bashir from 1995- 2 years before her death. She has such a soothing calming voice, yet so so very sad. She talked very frankly about everything, her suicide attempts and her bulimia.

    She and Charles (he was having affair with you know who the entire time even before the marriage) , but had been separated for 3 years already when she did the interview and she wanted to still try to save her name and marriage it because of the children. The media was making a mockery out of her once she wa not "her royal highness' All she did did was god works with land mine victims and AIDS patients in Africa and god knows what she could be doing right now.

    She finally got to have some fun finally and then she died or was killed in Aug 2007, 10 years ago!!! I don't know what to think about that night. I am an American but am a very cynical ( or logical ) person and she was dating someone at the time that would not look good to the royals. I think she could have been murdered and that really kills me.

    I got up early for her wedding and her funeral. I just adored her.She was a fish out of water but was better than any of them in my opinion.

    I wish she didn't have so much sadness in her life with them

    I really needed to vent because I just adored her and she stepped out of the box and tried to push the envelope a bit. Too bad it killed her at 34 years old. I think but not sure.:upset:

    I agree. In some ways, maybe her honesty and willingness to be different killed her-- even if she was not actually murdered (though I am partial to conspiracy theories -- since they usually turn out to be right-- and I would not be surprised if she WAS murdred.)

    A great loss to her children and the world, for sure.

        I agree. My husband thinks it's stupid, but she touched a very special place in my heart. I watched a CNN special on her life last night and it was just so sad. Thanks for the remembrance HC.
        Rest in Peace, Bear. We miss you.

          I was in Florida visiting my parents and going wedding dress shopping with my mom, 10 years ago when this happened. I'll always remember where I was, we were glued to the TV watching about the crash. How ironic that I will be there again exactly 10 years later.

            Haps, me and my girlfriend cried and cried watching her funeral together. Was so sad. She truly touched many lives. Her boys have a lot of memories and a Mum they can be very proud of when they speak of her...

              I loved Princess Di very much too, It was so tough the day she died because I had to waitress that evening.. Many of the people coming in were just soooo sad.. I can remember crying all day and thinking, this is gonna ruin my makeup, I gotta get myself together here, ohh this is gonna ruin my makeup and on and on.... Very sad..
              Diana was the most compassionate "real" Mom to those boys and they loved her sooo much for that.. If nothing else Diana died at a time when she truely felt loved and they rest in peace together. Thanks for the thread Happy.

                She was a very special person, and after her separation, her openness about her problems made it possible for others to get help for their problems. Her work with the poor and the ill was very important. Losing her is still a great tragedy, and I say this even though I wasn't a big "Di watcher".

                  I just thought of something. What if Di had been an alcoholic and discussed it openly? Do you think it would have made it easier for other alcoholics to seek help?

                      I was at one point going to her funeral, with a friend of mine. I knew some people that were working here long term from England, they were so upset it was all I could do to calm them down one night. I really thought she was a great woman and took alot of harassment on a daily basis from the paparazzi.

                        Yep, I remember the day of the Funeral here in the UK, The roads were empty, shops closed down for the day, I cried watching Elton John singing candle in the wind ............

                        I also believe in the conspiracy theory ...........

                          Yes, I remember the night she died I was home alone, my boyfriend of 4 years and I had broken up only a couple of weeks prior and I was on the couch eating a pint of Triple Brownie Overload Haagen Daz ice cream. No boozing at home back then. I had just turned 29 years old and didn't have the problem yet.

                          I cannot remember what I was watching on TV at the time, but it got interrupted by the breaking news. I think I stayed up until around 3 or 4am when they finally announced her death, I was BALLING!! My phone was ringing off the hook. Every female I knew was RUINED!
                          I'll never forget that night, I was upset already and then that happened.

                          Then Mother Theresa died just a couple of days later and no one seemed to care and that was upsetting too. She got lost in all the Diana stuff.

                            I forgot Mother Theresa died right after that. And your are right HC, her death went almost unnoticed.

                            Not to get off topic here but I was just ruminating the other day how awful it was the day JFK Jr. died too. I can still hardly think about it, it makes me so sad.

                            I was pregnant with my daughter and on a road trip to California to visit my mom when Diana's funeral was on. We had to get up at like 4-5 in the morningin our seedly motel to watch it. I sobbed and sobbed as I watched her sons walk slowly behind her casket. I do not believe in the conspiracy theory. I think she sadly got in the car of a very drunk and irresponsible driver who was getting his kicks from being high and being chased and thought he could outrun them. Such a tragedy.
                            I'm really easy to get along with once people learn to worship me

                              Hubby & I were only married 1 yr & were partying with friends that night. We turned on the news when we got home late & I was in shock. I respected her very much. I cried that whole night. The loss of a beautiful humantitarian. I still remember that night.
