Diana Princess

This guy is trying to make a buck off the most popular British Princess in our lifetime. We loved her because she was one of us, not born blood royal, but someone who went from rags to riches in a short time. She died under mysterious circumstances and that makes all the people who will do anything for a buck come out of the wood work. But there are always the stragglers, the ones waiting till everything has died down and their story is likely to get more press.

I wouldn't quite put it THAT way. After all, she was a true Sinclair, a family with far deeper royal roots than Prince Charles and his family. Nor was she ever in "rags", as her family were, and are, very wealthy.

Granted, she wasn't considered "royalty" when she married, but then neither was Fergie. However, as I noted above, her family has ties to many royal families throughout European history.

There are those who claim that the Sinclair family is the last of the Merovingian line, which would make it the ONLY real royalty in Europe, as all others supposedly got their "royal blood" from the Merovingians.

However, I fully agree with you about the butler, and others, just trying to make a buck from the tragedy.

So, here we go again. The tabloids will have a field day with this, just when things had settled down.

Can we not just let them rest in peace?

Princess Diana

I saw part of the Memorial Service for Diana on the news this morning. There was a lot of prominent people present at her service. I understand that Camilla was invited but chose not to attend due to the negative press, her presence may generate. I was very surprised that Prince Harry delivered a speech instead of his older brother Prince William. I suppose Prince William could not bring himself to do it. I felt a wave of sadness when I listened to Prince Harry's speech. It is very clear that both sons do miss their mother dearly, even though she has been dead for ten years now. I believe that the media is responsible for keeping the memory of Diana very much alive. I wish the press would stop obsessing over Diana for the sake of her two sons. The constant reminders of how she died is making it difficult for the two sons to heal and move on with their lives.
