The Diana we’ll never forget: princess, humanitarian, icon

Diana, Princess of Wales was killed in a car crash on August 31, 1997, at the age of 36. Diana was known not only as the ex-wife of Prince Charles, but as a humanitarian, a style icon, and a public figure who didn’t let her celebrity get in the way of connecting with ordinary people, including the poorest and most downtrodden. She also struggled with her mental and physical health under the massive pressure of the spotlight. She was known as the People’s Princess.
