Synopsis
Documentary that provides first-hand accounts of Diana Spencer as she was before, during and after her marriage to Prince Charles. Interviews with her nanny, cousin and teachers reveal that Diana was a happy young woman, who was thrilled to marry royalty. When her "fairy tale" marriage turned sour, Diana had an affair with Army officer James Hewitt, her riding instructor. The program features the most in-depth and extensive interview with Hewitt about his five-year affair with Diana and her unhappiness in the royal family. Also, Hewitt's mother, Shirley Hewitt, provides another perspective of the relationship and of Diana's role in her family. The program also explores Diana's charity work and features interviews with Diana's financial advisor, her royal biographer, her astrologer and her friends.
