The timing of your post is really funny because even though I am completely against monarchism and therefore pay no attention to royals whatsoever, I've been watching a lot of Diana documentaries for the past week or so after a random youtube suggestion. While I was still a child when she died, I can now completely understand why so many people were fascinated by her and took an immense liking to her back then because I feel the same way in 2020. The qualities I value most in other people are kindness and empathy and she radiates both and it seems so genuine. Futhermore, I like how she broke royal protocol and showed so much strength and bravery in her defiance of the “establishment“ as she called it. It's a shame that she spent so much time trying (and succeeding) to make other people happy with her work for charities while she never got to experience much happiness herself and never really stood a chance of being in an emotionally fulfilling relationship with her husband. A really admirable woman and can I also add that I love her voice and listening to her. I think she could have had a positive influence on many more societal issues if she had got to live longer. What are your thoughts on her accident? Do you believe it was an inside job?

I wouldn't be surprised, based on other things I've read, like her bodyguard being killed, and herself voicing her own fears about a car accident being engineered to kill her. Her divorcing the Prince and getting pregnant with someone else could have been the type of situation the family wanted to avoid, and they had grown to dislike her over time for not being traditional.
