The wonder of Lady Diana Spencer, and her style, made her one half of the highest-profile courtship the British royal family had seen in decades.

A review of the independence and determination demonstrated by the beloved royal, and how tragedy sadly ended her much-watched next moves.

Historians recount the story of Diana Spencer, the woman who was more regal than the Royals, and how she defined a generation despite her mistreatment by the royal establishment.

"For Princess Diana’s first Royal Tour, Charles & Diana went to Australia and then New Zealand. Accompanying them was baby Prince William. Diana herself described the gruelling six-week tour as a baptism of fire. Though it would ultimately prove a major success for the Royal image beneath the surface there was trouble already brewing between the newlywed couple. Diana-mania gripped the crowds down under and the frenzy to see the new royal superstar were like nothing seen before. The initial thrill of it all began to fester into jealousy and disdain. This is the story of those six weeks where the Princess of Wales became the world’s most photographed woman."

The life of the late Diana Princess of Wales, from innocent dreamer to a divorced and independent woman, is remembered by her most trusted royal aide.

A not-so-festive season of tension and family arguments, Diana's last Christmas as the wife of the future King and their last together as a family.

On Saturday, August 30th, 1997, Diana Princess of Wales leaves Sardinia on a private jet. She arrives in Paris with film producer Dodi Fayed, stopping there en route to London, having spent the preceding nine days together on board Fayed's yacht on the Italian and French Riviera. At 12:20 pm, Diana and Dodi departed from the Ritz Paris hotel rear entrance, heading for Dodi's father's apartment in Rue Arsène Houssaye. By doing this, they avoid a swarm of over thirty photographers waiting in front of the hotel. Three minutes later, after being chased by the paparazzi, the driver loses control of the vehicle and the car crashes. Diana's life was complicated, and it ended tragically. The fame and public admiration, although well intentioned is what ultimately killed her.
