Diana Princess of Wales

15 years ago today I got a phonecall from my school friend Tenealle. I was 11 years old. We were discussing my birthday party which would be next week, I was turning 12! Clearly my family hadn't watched the news today so when Tenealle said how it was sad that Princess Diana was dead I didn't know what to think. I do remember getting off the phone quickly and informing my parents. We are big fans of the royal family. My parents quickly turned on the news and we found out that Diana had died in a car accident.

I can't imagine what Prince William and Prince Harry went through. It must be so terrible losing a parent, especially at such a young age. It really is no wonder that Prince Harry has been in so much trouble of the years.

Such a beautiful lady.

I always thought (dreamed) that Diana would be my mother-in-law. I really wanted to be a princess and marrying Harry (who is one year older than me) seemed like an awesome idea when I was little.

I do feel very sorry for Diana. She went through so much. I don't think that Charles made the right choice in marrying Diana when he was inlove with someone else. It must have been a sad day when she realised this. I could write a thesis on this topic...




Rest In Peace. You will always be the People's Princess
