Wales. From her marriage in 1981 to her divorce in 1996, she was called “Her Royal Highness The
Princess of Wales”.After her divorce, officially, she was called Diana, Princess of Wales. An iconic
presence on the world stage, Diana, Princess of Wales was noted for her pioneering charity work. Yet
her philanthropic endeavours were sometimes overshadowed by her difficult marriage to Prince
Charles. During her lifetime, she was often referred to as the most photographed person in the
world.

Early years of Princess Diana

Diana Frances Spencer was born as the youngest daughter of Edward Spencer, Viscount Althorp, and
his first wife, Frances Spencer, at Park House on the Sandringham estate.

Diana was educated at Riddlesworth Hall in Norfolk and at West Heath Girls’ School in Sevenoaks,
Kent, where she was regarded as an academically below-average student, having failed all of her O-
level examinations. Diana was a talented amateur singer, excelled in sports and reportedly longed to
be a ballerina. Diana’s family, the Spencers, had been close to the British Royal Family for decades.
Her maternal grandmother, Ruth, Lady Fermoy, was a longtime friend of, and a lady-in-waiting to
Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother.

The Prince’s love life had always been the subject of press speculation, and he was linked to
numerous women. Nearing his mid-thirties, he was under increasing pressure to marry. In order to
gain the approval of his family and their advisors, any potential bride had to have an aristocratic
background, could not have been previously married, should be Protestant and, preferably, a virgin.
Diana fulfilled all of these qualifications.

Wedding of Prince Charles and Princess Diana

Buckingham Palace announced the engagement on 24 February 1981. The wedding took place at St
Paul’s Cathedral in London on Wednesday 29 July 1981 before 3,500 invited guests and an estimated
1 billion television viewers around the world. Upon her marriage, Diana became Her Royal Highness
The Princess of Wales and was ranked as the third most senior royal woman in the United Kingdom
after the Queen and the Queen Mother.

The Prince and Princess of Wales had two children, Prince William of Wales on 21 June 1982 and
Prince Henry of Wales on 15 September 1984.

Princess Diana – Break up of Marriage with Prince Charles

In the mid-1980s her marriage fell apart, an event at first suppressed, but then sensationalised, by
the world media. Both the Prince and Princess of Wales allegedly spoke to the press through friends,
accusing each other of the blame for the marriage’s demise. Charles resumed his relationship with
Camilla Parker Bowles, whilst Diana became involved with James Hewitt and possibly later with
James Gilbey, with whom she was involved in the so-called Squidgygate affair.

The Prince and Princess of Wales were separated on 9 December 1992; their divorce was finalised on
28 August 1996. The Princess lost the style Her Royal Highness and instead was styled as Diana,
Princess of Wales. However, since the divorce, Buckingham Palace has maintained that Diana was
officially a member of the Royal Family since she was the mother of the second and third in line to
the throne.
Princess Diana Charity work

Starting in the mid-to-late 1980s, the Princess of Wales became well known for her support of charity
projects, and is credited with considerable influence for her campaigns against the use of landmines
and helping the victims of AIDS. In April 1987, the Princess of Wales was the first high-profile
celebrity to be photographed knowingly touching a person infected with the HIV virus. Princess Diana
also made clandestine visits to show kindness to terminally ill AIDS patients. According to nurses, she
would turn up unannounced, for example, at the Mildmay Hospice in London, with specific
instructions that these visits were to be concealed from the media.

Princess Diana and Landmines Campaign (Принцеса Діана і протипіхотна кампанія)

Perhaps her most widely publicised charity appearance was her visit to Angola in January 1997,
when, serving as an International Red Cross VIP volunteer [1], she visited landmine survivors in
hospitals, toured de-mining projects run by the HALO Trust, and attended mine awareness education
classes about the dangers of mines immediately surrounding homes and villages. The
pictures of Diana touring a minefield, in a ballistic helmet and flak jacket, were seen worldwide. Her
interest in landmines was focused on the injuries they create, often to children, long after the conflict
has finished. She is widely acclaimed for her influence on the signing by the governments of the UK
and other nations of the Ottawa Treaty in December 1997, after her death, which created an
international ban on the use of anti-personnel landmines.

Death of Princess Diana

On 31 August 1997, Diana was involved in a car accident in the Pont de l’Alma road tunnel in Paris,
along with her friend and lover Dodi Al-Fayed, and their driver Henri Paul. Fayed’s bodyguard Trevor
Rees-Jones is the only person who survived the wreckage. The death of the Princess has been widely
blamed on reporters who were reportedly hounding the Princess and were following the vehicle at a
high speed. Ever since the word paparazzi has been associated with the death of the Princess.
