Why do you like Diana?

[RoyallyRich]

Almost everybody likes Diana because of all the good things she had done and the very human face and qualities she had projected to the world.But as for me I like and yes love Diana because she was so beautiful,stlyish,and rich.She lived a life of luxury and walked in the corridors of power.Her residence was a beautiful Royal Palace.Her wedding was spetacular.She remains an icon of ultimate top drawer affluence for me.She was Royal and Aristocratic.She really fit in the 1980's,which was a decade of power,decadence,opulence and excess.Dynasty Di or Dallas Di.Being wealthy really suited her and she gave that fantasy escape to most of us.To me she represented all things upper crust.Things that greatly appeal to me.She was what Paris Hilton and Victoria Beckham strived hard to be today.To me Diana is the original really really post modern era Rich It girl.She was in the right place and in the right time.

i think becous her hasband didnt love her, people pityed her and she was pretty and rich and sad. and there many woman like her who are sad about hasbands.

Diana had a lot of emotional intelligence and a special approach to people, plus the appropriate looks, style & grace. I feel sad when I imagine what could have been if the marriage with Charles had worked out well. She would have been a priceless asset for the monarchy and one of the most appreciated and successful CP's / Queens ever around.

no i think she helped everybody becous she was unhappy. when her merriage worked she would be normal like other princeses and queens, kind but not so much emotionally. may be as the wife of her hasbands brother.

Why do I love Diana?
As a child I always loved princesses and fairy tales with princesses. And I was fascinated when my mother told me that there are real princesses in the world. She showed me pictures of Diana, Stephanie, Anne etc. And Diana looked so friendly and her smile was so nice that she became my favourit princess. I asked my mother everything about her and at the age of 10 or 11 I found out how to get more information about her. My friends couldn't understand me but I admired Diana. Two yoers later I was fallen in love with Prince William.

I am not quite sure about the reason why a lot of people admire Diana. Maybe it is because she so friendly, helpful and beautiful but on the other hand so pitiful.
And you may not forget the power of the press. You saw her face nearly every day in the papers and you could read everything about her life. And if you read a lot of somebody, you get interested.

but above all she was a great woman!

[LOSSEAN]

She had class. She was beautiful and had compassion for the people. She was a natural at what she does. And she didn't dazzle because of the jewels she wore but was dazzling herself. Come to think of it, I hardly noticed the jewels or other accessories she wore because Diana the person was what I loved.

I am grateful for the ray of sunshine she was to this world. Oh and she was a wonderful mom!! See how her sons have turned out!

She was the underdog and rebelled against the establishment.

But Diana was adored all over the world years before she began to be portrayed as an "underdog" or any kind of rebel. People took to her immediately because she seemed so warm, and so human and touchable. She was so accessible and charming compared to the stiff & formal family she was marrying into. She was seen as a breath of fresh air who rejuvenated & softened the face of the royals and people felt they could relate to her.
