Princess Diana was born July 1, 1961 at 7:45pm weighing 7lb 12oz at Park House, Sandringham, Norfolk, England. She had her christening at Sandringham Church in Norfolk. Her full name is Lady Diana Frances Spencer. On July 29, 1981 she married her Prince Charming - Prince Charles of Wales, the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth II. On June 21 1982 her first son was born - Prince William Arthur Phillip Louis Windsor. Two years later, on September 15 1984, Diana's second and youngest son was born - Prince Henry Charles Albert David Windsor. Later on she said that the time she was expecting Harry was the best time she and Charles ever had they were getting along so well. On August 26 1996, the "Fairy-Tale" marriage was over. A year later on August 31 1997, much of the world was in a state of mourning - their beloved Princess died in a car accident with boyfriend Dodi Fayed, along with the driver of the car. The only survivor was Dodi's bodyguard, Trevor Rees-Jones. Diana today is still remembered by many as the "People's Princess". She will always be remembered. Show less «

[interview in "Panorama" magazine, 1995] There were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded.

Any sane person would have left long ago. But I cannot. I have my sons.

I'd like to be a queen in people's hearts but I don't see myself being queen of this country.

My role is about 80% slog and 20% fantastic.

If I'm going to comfort the suffering, I have to understand what they've been through.

I was always told by my family that I was the thick one. That I was stupid and my brother was the clever one. And I was always so conscious of that. I used to go to the head mistress crying saying I wish I wasn't so stupid. Show less «

[1993] When I started my public life, 12 years ago, I understood the media might be interested in what I did. I realized then their attention would inevitably focus on both our private and public lives. But I was not aware of how overwhelming that attention would become. Nor the extent to which it would affect both my public duties and my personal life, in a manner, that's been hard to bear. At the end of this year, when I've completed my diary of official engagements, I will be reducing the extent of the public life I've lead so far. Show less «

Everyone needs to be valued. Everyone has the potential to give something back.

The worst illness of our time is that so many people have to suffer from not ever being loved.
