On September 6, 1997, the funeral of UK Princess Diana was held in London . There were media reports that there were 2 million mourners at the scene, and there were estimated 2.5 billion people watching the funeral via TV broadcast worldwide.

Although Diana had long divorced from Prince Charles , the royal family still gave her royal treatment at the funeral, and some treatment specifications were even comparable to the king. Why was her funeral so sensational?

1. Forgetting a relationship: Become the most famous British princess

Diana was born in the Spencer family of traditional British aristocrats. Such a family background has had many negative impacts on her marriage and personality.

The Spencer family rose in the 15th century and was one of the richest wool merchants in Europe.

After getting rich, the ancestor of the Spencer family spent money to buy the title of Earl from the British royal family . Diana's father John is the eighth generation successor of the Spencer family.

Since there was no male in the family, John was very worried about the inheritance of the title. According to his family tradition, if there was no male in the family, the relatives of the side branch would inherit the title and property of Earl Spencer.

John was a little crazy after giving birth to three daughters in a row. When Diana was born, his spirit was particularly broken.

Diana recalled that she was sent to an ordinary boarding school since she was a child. Her parents never hugged her, and she never received the warmth of her family.

Although the book "Geneology" was published as early as 1926, the secret of having boys and girls in the 1950s was not well-known, so John blamed his wife for not having a son.

John took his wife to see a doctor and asked religious people to help . After finding it useless, he showed family violence against . Soon after, he divorced his wife and married another wife. Finally, Diana got a son when she was 3 years old.

The parents' relationship is not harmonious and the father prefers boys over girls, which leads to Diana's unhappy childhood. Her younger brother also follows the old path of his father, and has given birth to three daughters before he has a son and divorced his original wife.

Divorce was a rare thing back then. Diana was the only one among her classmates whose parents divorced, so she felt a little inferior during school.

Dianna became a little afraid of marriage under the influence of her family, but she became eager for marriage at the age of beginning of love.

She once said: I won’t get married unless I really love, because if you don’t love, you will get divorced—and I never intended to get divorced.

At the age of 13, Diana found her dream lover - The Crown Prince of England, Prince of Wales Prince Charles.

Prince Charles was born in 1948 and is 13 years older than Diana, but Diana doesn't mind and insists on stage a story about a little loli falling in love with an uncle.

Due to his noble status, Diana and her father, stepmother and sister often enter the palace to participate in activities, so she met Charles at the age of 16.

John may have other plans to send his daughter to the palace . Time magazine once gossiped that Diana and Charles were actually cousins, because there were four people in the Spencer family who were mistresses for the royal family, and the successors of the family were actually from the royal family. illegitimate child.

Charles is also at the age of being urged to get married. The daughter of the noble family also chooses a concubine when entering the palace, but her sister becomes Charles' girlfriend first.

Just when the outside world speculated that the crown prince was confirmed, the royal family chose Diana. Although my sister is not bad, the royal family does not like her sister's ostentatious personality. When Diana was 20 years old, she finally married the prince charming in her dream.

Some people speculate that this is just the result of the two evils in the royal family being the least. Compared to her sister, although Diana's personality meets the requirements of the royal family, there are many problems.

Due to parents' neglect, Diana did not receive a systematic aristocratic education. She often failed the exam during school. When she got married, her education was a high school dropout.

Charles doesn't care about Diana's education. On the one hand, the British royal family's education is generally not high. Charles is the first person in the royal family to obtain a bachelor's degree in . On the other hand, as the crown prince, Charles has too much about his marriage I can't help myself.

The outside world's speculation is outrageous. Compared with education, the royal family values ​​Diana's image more.

After becoming a princess, Diana often participated in charity activities, such as going to the hospital to visit skinny cancer patients and going to Africa to visit children disabled due to war.

As a princess, Diana's clothes once led the fashion of British women. In June 1987, she auctioned 79 of her clothes and donated all the £3.5 million she won to charity.

Although these are marketing of the British national image and royal show, Diana is indeed doing charity sincerely.

Diana is not as cold as a royal family member, is approachable and won the title of "Princess of the People" . She is almost one of the most photographed, recognizable and recorded characters in the 20th century.

2. Grudge: The third party intervenes and divorces

is different from the glamorousness in the media. Diana's private life is not happy . The misfortune of marriage is inherited, and Diana's marriage is also no exception.

Diana admires Charles, but Charles's heart has something else to do. Before proposing to Diana, Charles had always had a close relationship with a woman named Camilla.

Camilla was born in a wealthy family and had excellent grades during school. In 970, he met Charles in an polo competition.

Camirah is one year older than Charles, and there is no generation gap between them. The two get along happily and soon develop into a lover relationship.

But the royal family was not satisfied with Camilla, especially when Prince Charles went to to serve in the British Navy in 1971, and the relationship between the two was forced to cool down.

Under family pressure, Camilla married her "schooler" - a poor British military officer in 1973.

said that the officer was pitiful because he got Camilla's people and did not get her heart. Charles immediately rekindled his old love with Camilla after retirement from the Navy, and the officer was cuckolded.

When Charles needed to get married, it was even more impossible for the royal family to agree to him to find a married woman to be a princess. This not only damages the royal family's face, but also Camilla's family background is not a noble family.

Camilla knew very well that she was unlikely to become a princess, so she accepted the role of lover calmly. For the sake of her lover, she took the initiative to help Charles find a suitable marriage partner. Diana became a princess, and Camilla worked hard.

Diana should have heard of Charles' love experience, but she has a bit of a love mind and resolutely entered the palace with a longing for love.

There are many rules in the life of the palace, which makes Diana, who lacks aristocratic education since childhood, feels uncomfortable, and even suffers from postpartum depression .

Children who grew up in divorced families have a high probability of having some problems with their personality. From Charles' perspective, Diana is a bit willful, moody and neurotic.

If it were not for the purpose of fulfilling the crown prince's responsibility to reproduce for the royal family, Charles might not have married Diana.

Diana's marriage soon broke out, and Charles, who had a bad life after marriage, went to Camilla for a try again. After all, it is impossible to keep cheating like this. As early as 1986, Diana discovered the problem . Although she was extremely angry, she had never endured it publicly.

I can’t say anything about my pain, so I have to find a vent. Diana’s personality becomes a little irritable, develops neurasthenia, and often overeats to relieve anxiety.

As the image spokesperson of the princess and the royal family, Diana cannot make herself too fat, so she will force herself to vomit after eating. In this way, she has the disease of good hunger again.

Some studies have said that emotional disorders with mothers at a young age will increase the probability of suffering from chemothering and hunger, and the prevalence of women is higher. Diana's psychological problems may also be another consequence of a bad marriage relationship between parents.

The husband cheated, and Diana also started looking for lovers. This couple in the eyes of the outside world began to become worse.

Diana is more "opener" than Charles, and she is looking for seven lovers. In addition to some celebrities, she also includes her own bodyguards, servants, car sales and other small people.

As a public figure, Diana's private life quickly attracted media attention, and her cheating was inadvertently exposed.

1989, a bank manager who likes to eavesdrop, unexpectedly eavesdropped on ambiguous communication between Diana and a man. The marriage problem between Charles and Diana was exposed.

The royal family has been trying to maintain the image of paying attention to marriage, so now the matter of the princes and princesses looking for lovers has caused an uproar in the media.

Not long after, the media made big news. It turned out that Diana was on several boats, and She also had a relationship with an tank officer, which caused the officer's girlfriend to accuse them in the media.

In the media, Diana also generously admitted her lovely news, and also talked about the future of the royal family, Charles' unlikely to take over as the king, and other content, which made all the less glorious things in the royal family.

Diana's behavior caused serious dissatisfaction in the royal family. Perhaps it was to prepare for public opinion in order to break with the royal family. She did not restrain herself and even separated from Charles.

After reading these royal gossips, the British people did not reduce their support for Diana. Instead, they believed that the royal family abused Diana, which increased a lot of "fans" and the royal family was under a lot of pressure.

The arranged marriage Elizabeth II Finally couldn't stand the bad marriage of her son, and In 1996, she ordered Charles and Diana to divorce.

3. New fate: Overseas dating was besieged by the media

After divorce, Diana was still regarded as a member of the royal family. retained her title and treatment and could live in Kensington Palace , and she did not restrict her from finding a lover.

Diana's last lover, or her husband, is the rich second generation Dodi from Egypt . The two often go out to date, and Diana has spent a few days of free and happy days.

It’s a pity that Diana’s good days didn’t last long, so she paid a high price.

Once upon a time, starting from Italy, there were a large number of "paparazzi" in the media industry in - photographers or journalists who specialize in chasing celebrities to take photos, which is what we call "paparazzi".

Paparazzi often uses any means to get some news. Diana, as a media darling, is often surrounded and intercepted by Paparazzi.

candid filming is often difficult to be punished by law, and the media industry is not self-disciplined. Diana was very worried about this and once published in the newspaper for publicly condemning Paparazzi's despicable behavior.

There was a time when Diana always wore the same clothes, just to make Paparazzi's photos less valuable. You know, she is the top star in British women's fashion clothes. Dressing like this is equivalent to self-harm. .

How shameless can Paparazzi be? Here is an example of Taiwan, China.

In April 1997, the daughter of the famous movie star Bai Bingbing was kidnapped . Paparazzi took the attitude of watching the fun without bothering to worry about the big deal and stayed around Bai Bingbing's house 24 hours a day.

What's more, using technical means to monitor police communications, the most unacceptable thing is that every time Bai Bingbing travels, there will be a bunch of media following behind him, even when she brings ransoms to meet the robbers.

In the end, the robbers believed that even if they could escape the police pursuit, they could not escape the media exposure, so they simply did not want to pay the ransom and directly tear the tickets. The scene of Bai Bingbing's daughter's tragic death was widely circulated.

In August 1997, Diana went to Paris to date Dodi, and was once again "siege" by Paparazzi.You should know that a year ago, was just a photo of two people kissing, and sold for a sky-high price of 350,000 pounds.

Diana, who has a deep understanding of Paparazzi's power, should have heard of the sensational case of Bai Bingbing's daughter being kidnapped and killed, so she and Dodi were very cautious, but they tried their best to avoid Paparazzi but could not avoid Paparazzi The poison of the

html Late at night on August 30, the alert Diana and Dodi found that Paparazzi was following him, so they ordered a driver to drive their car and leave first, while the two of them got on another spare car to their residence.

But Diana and Dodi still underestimated Paparazzi's IQ. 7 Paparazzi still found their true whereabouts . The seven people followed along on their motorcycles, and Diana could never get rid of them.

In desperation, Dodi's driver Henry accelerated the speed, and even entered the tunnel, it maintained a speed of nearly 200 kilometers per hour. What Henry didn't know was that the design of the tunnel was very rare, and columns were built in the middle of the road.

What is even more terrifying than the terrible tunnel is that Henry drank that night. Driving while drunk would make people's vision narrower and their reaction speed slower. Henry couldn't dodge the pillars that suddenly appeared in the tunnel and directly hit him.

On-site traces showed that the vehicle speed at the time of the impact was 196 kilometers, and the impact force suffered by the passenger was equivalent to falling from the 18th floor to the ground. Diana suffered a severe blow and her life was hanging on the line.

Paparazzi once again showed his shamelessness. They took photos of the dying Diana in succession, and some of them quickly went to the newspaper to contribute —There is also competition between Paparazzi. Whoever can make the news first will be More benefits can be obtained.

The fire rescue team and the ambulance arrived at the scene in a few minutes to start rescue, and more than a dozen Paparazzi surrounded him and took photos.

Diana did not die on the spot, but because of her injuries, the doctor was unable to move her body immediately, so she had to rescue her on the spot. It was not until nearly 2 hours after the car accident that Diana was sent to the hospital.

At 4 a.m. on August 31, the doctor announced that Diana was killed. At this point, two serious incidents caused by Paparazzi within a few months finally triggered media reflection.

Several years later, when Paparazzi's photo of a doctor rescuing Diana at the scene of a car accident appeared on the Internet, mainstream British TV stations tacitly implemented the ban, but it was too late to correct the wrong behavior.

4. End of fate: The high funeral specifications are comparable to the royal family

After Diana's death, the media started another carnival. Some people said that she actually died of murder and the royal family must bear responsibility for this.

Even if he can withstand the attack of conspiracy theory, Charles cannot withstand moral condemnation. After all, he lost to Diana in his marriage.

After Charles learned of Diana's death, he murmured, "They will blame me, don't they?"

It is said that Charles has divorced and he has no responsibility for Diana, but no matter what, the two have been married. 16 years, even without love, there is kindness.

Charles took his two sons and two aunts to France to pick up Diana's body. Diana was put into a wooden coffin and returned to the UK. She was stopped at Kensington Palace for 6 days.

Queen Elizabeth II actually does not agree with Charles' behavior. After all, Diana is no longer a princess, and she is very worried that Charles will do something that will damage the royal face.

But Diana still retains her royal identity and is the mother of two princes , and the queen cannot ignore her funeral.

It is said that the then British Prime Minister also suggested that the queen be cautious, After all, Diana is too famous, and improper handling may cause people to be dissatisfied with the royal family.

As a mother, Elizabeth II finally obeyed Charles' rebellion. As the queen, Elizabeth II took the initiative to increase the specifications of Diana's funeral and even ordered the palace to lower the flag to mourn at half a flag - this is a treatment that only the king will have when he dies.

Due to the rush of time, Diana's coffin is not sealed well. In the hot weather, the body begins to emit a strange smell, which is unacceptable for Diana herself, who pays great attention to her image during her lifetime and those who come to pay their respects.

Because Diana believed in the Christian Wesleyan during her lifetime, she could only bury bury and not cremated according to the doctrine. After discussing with the royal family, Charles decided to create a lead coffin weighing 635 kilograms before the funeral.

On the day of the funeral, more than 2,000 celebrities attended the funeral. There were countless people who came to see the funeral and those who sat in front of the TV to watch the live broadcast. Many people shed tears for this beloved princess.

On such a serious occasion, as the representative of Diana's mother's family, Diana's younger brother couldn't help but feel angry. In his speech, he violently criticized the royal family for being injustice and his sister's life was not easy.

After the funeral, my brother buried Diana's coffin in Orsop Manor . The manor was built on a small island in a lake, surrounded by water on all sides, with beautiful scenery and very quiet.

Every year, people try to come to pay tribute to Diana, but my younger brother doesn’t want anyone to disturb my sister’s purity, so people can only mourn by the lake.

Now, Diana can finally get rid of the responsibilities of the royal family, Paparazzi's entanglement, and can enjoy peace.

After handling the funeral of his ex-wife, Charles began to resist his mother for love. Diana's death made many British people dissatisfied with the royal family, and the royal family intends to alienate Charles from his mistress Camilla.

But Charles's feelings for Camilla are real, neither the queen's mother nor the surging public opinion can stop him.

Private date will not be discussed for the time being, 999 Charles publicly invited Camilla to his birthday party.

As she grows older, the queen's control over Charles becomes weaker and weaker. Like most elderly people, she finally compromises with her son.

In 2000, Camilla attended King Constantine's birthday celebration, and Elizabeth II also attended, This means that the Queen finally accepted Camilla.

Since then, Camilla and Charles have more and more public activities, publicly kissing and attending royal weddings. In 2005, the lover finally got married and the two held a wedding.

The royal family did not give the title of Princess Camilla, but instead named her Duchess of Cornwall . But Camilla probably won’t mind these things. After all, for Charles, she has been a lover for so many years. How could she care about Xu Ming?
