Isn't it funny that whilst there are alot of people who are "defending" Diana, her sons stood beside their father yesterday and looked genuinly pleased and happy..... If they can be happy for him despite the fact that it was their mother that was wronged then why cant the general public.
Shireen

The boys were young when their mother was killed. They would have naturally latched on to their father at that difficult time in their lives. Time heals and time blurs memories. And whatever their personal feelings towards their stepmom are, William and Harry are clever enough not to show them in public. Also I don't think Diana was the kind of person who would have complained to her kids about their dad's shenanigans so there is probably a lot that they do not know or choose to ignore.
There was a good film about Diana's life after the split up with Charles. In it there is a scene. It is Christmas and she is all alone and unhappy. But when she rings her kids, she has music playing in the background and pretends that she is having a fabulous time celebrating with friends. I was very touched by that scene because I believe it truly captured the essence of Diana - a truly selfless person who loved her children to bits.
The public cannot and will not forget how this woman was wronged. Consequently whatever Charles does will always be met with disapproval. After all heaven and hell are here on earth...

What were your thoughts on the Royal Wedding? I don't have any particular feelings other than surprise to see Prince William losing his hair (obviously he inherited that bit from his dad) on the top of his head. Also what are all these posh people thinking of appearing in public in such unbecoming frocks? Is A-line back in fashion along with a 60s look? Thank God for Joanna Lumley and Tara Palmer-Tomkinson adding a bit of grace, overshadowing the royal females even! Over to you now.

Thoughts? C GAS ...
Couldn't Give A Shit ...

Hiya Tania smile
Call me a cynic but it seems to me that allowing herself to be filmed on Xmas Day in this manner is so flippin' manipulative it's not true... Please believe me... I do share some of your concerns about the treatment of her but she was not a saint!
She is a product of a family who's members would not communicate with each other for months and months. She herself hadn't spoken to her Mother for ages and hadn't made up at the time of her death... That is not the actions of a caring and forgiving person... Her own brother has spoken of times when she ignored him for ages and returned his letters... purlease! ;-)
I bet she was hard work and high maintenance!

I agree that the POW should never have married Lady Di... a total mistake from start to finish... I think they thought they loved each other but they had so little in common... I read a great French Proverb today which is so true in my experience...
True Love is Friendship set on fire!..
However she wasn't wronged... the relationship went wrong... how would we all handle such a thing with the whole world staring? People have flaws and that includes Royality and Nobility... A little forgiveness and the removal of rose coloured spectacles wouldn't go a miss...

I think the film being referred to, is an American made for T.V portrayal.

This was a film, not a documentary. A film that was made AFTER her death based on eyewitness reports about her character and events in her life.
So if she was on her own there were no eye witnesses to the event.
Sounds like media crap to me, she was a bloody brilliant media manipulater I'll give her that.

Oh dear! Do you really believe Diana would be totally alone anywhere in the world? No servants? No cook? No chauffeur? No secretary? rolleyes
And of course they all told the absolute truth to the film makers and it portrayed her exact life. rolleyes
