Princess Diana

Profession: Royalty
Place/Date of Birth: Park House, Sandringham, 01 June 2020
Date of Death: 31 August 2020

The initial idea was thought of before Diana’s death in 1997, Costner had hoped that the princess herself might play a role in the film, though I doubt very much she would have done so. The idea was reworked following Diana’s death, but has finally been scrapped.

Costner said: "We were never going to sensationalise her life or make her look foolish. We wanted her to look good. "But it is hard to go back to the project without having her still in mind." So I think it will probably stay on the shelf, sad though that may be."

Earl Spencer Plans Diana Memorabilia Sale - 16/02/01
Earl Spencer, the brother of the late Diana, Princess of Wales, is planning a clear-out of Althorp. Among the many items to be sold off are toys that the Princess played with in her childhood.

Furniture, porcelain and an art collection acquired by 20 generations of the family will also be up for sale.

The auction, which is hoping to raise £2 million, will be held in a marquee in the grounds of the house where Diana is buried.
