Featured reviews
A legend, an icon and a star, who was chased to death by the press / paparazzi / media. Two little boys lost a lovable mother so far too soon, a world lost a model of justice and kindness and a royal house lost its luster and credibility from beginning to end.
How can the media and the press live with themselves or sleep well at night after chasing a beloved princess to death?
Luckily, Diana had a brother who stood up for her and who dared to put into words what almost the whole world thought, thank you so much sir Charles Spencer! Thank you for daring to say what everyone thought, your sister would be very proud of you to stand up for her as you did. Your speech at Diana's funeral will be remembered by a whole world, a whole world gave you aplaus this day .
The princess used her advantage for what it was worth in her position, but who would not do it when the opportunity lay before her?
She had no one, absolutely no one in the royal house who stood up for her, or who spoke her case. It was probably this that made her the strong personality she was.
I feel disgust for the media and the press, and disgust for Charles, Camilla and not least for Queen Elisabeth, for their abominable behavior towards Diana.
The royal house got what they wanted in the end, easiest way out of rumors and bad publicity of the royal house.
(Luckily we have freedom of speech and I can write exactly what I want)!
Princess Diana will be remembered for many many decades, she will never be forgotten.
Thank you for being strong enough to pave the way for future generations of women, for standing up for what you thought was right and and not least for standing up for the sick and weak in society!
You will always be a star and Princess of England in my eyes!
Rest in peace the star above all stars.

And I grew up with the story of Lady Diana. This before cable tv. I really think that she tried to use her position, her place in the world, to make lives of unfortuned people, better. I really think that papparazzis are a bunch of assholes and they should all be shot.
When she passed, I was a teenager, didn't know much about her except that she was a very famous and rebellious wife of Prince Charles. This series/documentary really opened up so many aspects of her life and threw light on her struggles in her marriage, and especially with the press. It's truly shocking to think she had to be put through so much pressure from the Palace and being watched every second by the media, made it even harder to not fail or make mistakes.
Her advantage was that, she knew how to manipulate the media and she did, until it got her killed. Such a sad ending to something that could have been a great human legacy. And to think that in modern times, the Palace and the media haven't learned from their mistakes and were doing the same thing to Meghan Markle is astonishing.
It makes perfect sense, now, why she would want to leave Britain and the "royal" (I hate calling them that) family. I didn't use to side with her and her decision to disrupt that family but watching this documentary made me understand her so much better. Smart girl...

The Story of Diana is so powerful that it will stay with you for a while after you watch it. It is a gripping tale of the rise and fall of Lady Di. The makers do an incredible work of putting together voices from the press, the photographers, her inner circle, high society privileged tribe and more.
It is powerful to see her emerge as a woman of strength after moving out of the royal family and carving an identity for herself. What touches you the most is how she picked up the ashes and was ready to move to a happier place in life when she met an unfortunate end.
The account put together in the film from the point she met with the accident to the last frame showing her final goodbye will leave a lump in your throat. Your heart will go out to the young William and little Harry as they follow their mother's body.
The Story of Diana has a roller coaster of emotions - you will feel rapturous, angry, heavy-hearted and still happy when you see Lady Di's infectious smile.
