Introduction

Diana Frances Spencer was a member of the British royal family. She was the first wife of Charles,
Prince of Wales, and the mother of Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and Prince Harry, Duke of
Sussex.

2. Childhood

Diana was born on July 1st, 1961. On 30 August 1961, Diana was baptised at St. Mary Magdalene Church
by the priest. She was brought up with three siblings: Sarah, Jane, and Charles by her parents. Diana
grew up in Park House, situated on the Sandringham estate. The Spencer’s house was leased by its
owner, Queen Elizabeth II. The royal family frequently holidayed at the neighboring Sandringham House,
and Diana played with the Queen's sons Prince Andrew and Prince Edward.
Diana was seven years old when her parents divorced. She described her childhood as "very
unhappy" and "very unstable, the whole thing".

3. Becoming Famous

Diana became known as Lady Diana after her father later inherited the title of Earl Spencer in 1975,
at which point her father moved the entire family from Park House to Althorp.

The engagement with Prince Charles became official on 24 February 1981. Diana was the first
Englishwoman to marry the first in line to the throne since Anne Hyde over 300 years earlier, and
she was also the first royal bride to have a paying job before her engagement.

Twenty-year-old Diana became Princess of Wales when she married the Prince of Wales on 29 July
1981 at St Paul's Cathedral. The service was described as a "fairytale wedding" by famous UK
magazines. The weeding was watched by a global television audience of 750 million people.

After she became Princess of Wales, Diana automatically acquired rank as the third-highest female
in the United Kingdom Order of Precedence

She was noted for her compassion, style, charisma, and high-profile charity work, as well as her ill-
fated marriage to the Prince of Wales. Diana was a fashion icon. Whose style was emulated by
women around the world. Campaigning for animal protection and fighting against the use
of landmines were included in Diana's extensive charity work. She was the patronessof charities and
organisations who worked with the homeless, youth, drug addicts, and the elderly.

4. Impact in others

As Princess of Wales, Diana was expected to take part in various official Diana engagements, such
as the opening of hospitals. This provided a natural outlet for her to become involved in various
types of charitable work. Her natural sympathy and oneness with patients was much admired. In
1987, Princess Diana was one of the first well known celebrities to be photographed with a victim of
AIDS. This was important in changing attitudes to the disease. At the time, many thought the
disease could be contacted by touch alone. Another of her high profile charities, was her
involvement in the campaign to ban landmines. In January 1997, Mine fields in Angola were visited
to inspect the clearing of landmines by her. After her death, the Ottawa treaty was signed banning
the use of anti-personnel landmines. Many agree that her support and role in the campaign played
an important role in influencing this decision.
On June 18th, Princess Diana met with Mother Teresa. Both admired each other. Mother Teresa
always said “Diana is my daughter.” With utmost humility Diana said “I am a very, very small Mother
Teresa.Diana remained very popular because people could identify with her.

On 31 August 1997, Diana died in a car crash in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel in Paris. The televised
funeral, on 6 September, was watched by a British television audience that peaked at 32.10 million,
which was one of the United Kingdom's highest viewing figures ever.

5. Style Icon

The Princess chose her dressing style based on both the royal family's demands and popular
modern styles in Britain, and developed her personal fashion trend. She was always very thoughtful
about how her clothes would be interpreted, it was something that really mattered to her. Diana
chose not to practice some of the royal clothing traditions such as putting aside the tradition of
wearing gloves as she believed it would prevent a direct connection with the people she met, such
as those affected by serious diseases like AIDS patients.

6. Quote.

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

Gratitude, humility and kindness is expressed in this quote. Lady Diana always served others without
expect anything back. She helped people and played a great role as a princess, a role that everyone
should practice.
