They were grand admirers of Diana and having seen her in the flesh in one moment only to learn that moments later she'd perished, most definitely haunted them...in fact it gave chills to all of us.Jeffrey Sigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00718317707555064653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1990338437877873686.post-85206246809700271122017-08-29T10:45:21.800-04:002017-08-29T10:45:21.800-04:00Annamaria, yes, I've heard her sons are finall...Annamaria, yes, I've heard her sons are finally talking about how they felt, too.

Accidents aren't guaranteed to kill the people in the car. Right?<br /><br />Channel 13 in New York has been airing a very sympathetic biography of Diana in the past week. I found that story compelling since it includes video of her with the coach who was teaching her public speaking. It characterizes her as the victim, of a murderer, but as a character assassin. It shows her as a broken hearted young wife, whose husband married her despite the fact that he was in love with another woman--one who was totally inappropriate to be his wife. The documentary states quite directly that all the talk about how unstable she was was an attempt to discredit her, and blame her for the failure of her marriage, when the real trouble was Charles's relationship with Camilla. This part I really believe.Annamaria Alfierihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12311596277267789834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1990338437877873686.post-25727448088761488312017-08-29T05:30:16.478-04:002017-08-29T05:30:16.478-04:00What a fascinating, informative post! Thanks, Car...What a fascinating, informative post! Thanks, Cara. I can't believe it's been twenty years. The memories it brings back.<br /><br />I remember precisely where I was when I learned of the crash. I was where I am now, in the lobby of a hotel in Mykonos. Back then, I saw a group of Brits huddled around the TV. I asked what's up and they told me about the crash. I joined them in watching TV coverage and remember saying, "You're looking at what will become your JFK assassination story. It will never end."<br /><br />A couple months later I was back in NYC at a bar I owned with a few others, and a customer asked me where I was when I learned of their deaths. I told him, and then two of my partners told him where they were: <br />Sitting at the bar in the Ritz having just watched Dodi and Diana pass through the door leading outside the bar to their Mercedes. They were among the last to see the couple alive!Jeffrey Sigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00718317707555064653noreply@blogger.com
