She wasn’t murdered
On August 31, 1997, Diana Princess of Wales was killed in a high-speed car chase in a Paris tunnel. Her driver, who was drunk, was reportedly trying to elude the paparazzi, and it’s not a stretch to imagine that was exactly what happened. However, for all these reasons, conspiracy theorists refuse to believe the death of the People’s Princess could have been an accident. Since even Diana, herself, believed she was being targeted for murder, it’s easy to understand why people continue to doubt the accident was actually an accident.
Her children didn’t choose to walk behind her coffin
Another commonly held but completely incorrect “Princess Diana fact” is that her children chose to walk behind her coffin in the funeral processional. “It’s simply not true,” the Earl of Spencer revealed, according to the BBC. And Prince Harry confirms as much in an interview with Newsweek. “My mother had just died and I had to walk a long way behind her coffin surrounded by thousands of people watching me while millions more did on television,” Harry said. “I don’t think any child should be asked to do that under any circumstances. I don’t think it would happen today.”
