- On 3 September 1997, Dame Barbara Cartland spoke to ITN about the death of Diana, Princess of Wales. Known primarily as one of the best-selling authors of the 20th Century, Cartland was also Princess Diana's step grandmother. Dame Barbara told ITN how she believed that Diana had been "neglected" and "ignored" by the Royal Family, who didn't realise how "marvellous" and "wonderful" the late princess was. Interviewed two days before the Royal Family returned to London from Balmoral, Dame Barbara also criticised the absence of any statement on the matter by Buckingham Palace.

I met Dame Barbara Cartland and read all her books. I actually met her in Scotland in the highlands & she gave me her Autograph. She's a very down to earth & charming lady. Even today I still love reading her books.
Princess Diana's step mother Raine is the daughter of Dame Barbara Cartland. That made Cartland Diana’s step grandmother.
Even though Princess Diana was her step-granddaughter, she defended and loved her like her own granddaughter.
lovely
What a splendid lady Dame Barbara Cartland was! The Royal Family treated Princess Diana appallingly. I have never had the same level of respect for the family since.
Nor have I No respect for Charles and his mistress
@@joycemanning1254 😂
Diana treated the the Royals appalling. She also had a habit of cavorting with married men.
@@owenypony Well, well, well! Dis the then Prince Charles do any different? You are on thin ice with that ridiculous argument. In any case, what came first? The chicken or the egg?
@@xelakram they both behaved badly, but Charles only with Camilla, Diana destroyed several marriages. Ask Julia Carling….
She is on Point!
How wonderful to see how this writer speaks TRUTH!
Thank you, for your honesty! ❤️
She died almost 25 years ago.
@@psisky She died 27 years ago
@@Kathy-uj6sy She died May 2000, almost 25 years ago.
@@psisky Sorry, I was thinking about Diana... Yes, you are right.
@@Kathy-uj6sy No probs. I was just pointing out she'd died as I think the op might think this was a recent interview. Time flies so fast, it's scary.
She was 96 years old when she gave that interview!
Amazing.
Wow she had so much energy!
The reason half the world's population watched her funeral is because she showed love.
But was it real, or just an act to gain, and maintain her popularity.
@pattisonpattison3639 Many stories have been told since her death by people who were present when she made secret visits to people, when cameras weren't there.
Il faut être stupide pour cela c est quelqu un qui n a jamais suivi DIANA MIEUT CE TAIRE 🎉@@pattisonpattison3639
She was the mother of Diana's step mother, Raine.
Diana and her brother called her Acid Raine, they hated her for several years at least but may have grown out of it.
@@rebeccaanderson5191No, they did not grow out of it. Diana was Princess of Wales when she pushed the Countess down a flight of stairs and Diana was 31 years old when they threw her out of Althorp.
Those two were partners in crime. He is on his fourth divorce.
@@livingincaptivityIII This is incorrect.
@@jrd3523
What precisely?
@@livingincaptivityIII Everything you wrote (the same lies you write everywhere). Get a life.
The lack of love is the problem in today's sex obsessed world. ❤❤❤❤
Dame Barbara summed up Diana beautifully.
She DID NOT critisise the RF!!!
She really should have. They need to go. What a waste of tax payers money when they have £millions of their own
I agree with dame carland💯 Diana was a wonderful ❤ soul.
She criticized what the RF lacks of; love!!
Beautifully said!!❤I really admire Dame Barbara Cartland!
I love this lady. She speaks the truth and I know Diana was close to Barbra due to she was her step grandmother. When it comes to Barbra there was a joke on kath and Kim and Kim joked "Jackie havaritie left lord Stilton already and ran off with Bree" and the little Britain skits. She was well spoken and style. I'm glad her and Diana were good friends.
DIana and her siblings couldnt stand Cartland's daughter, Raine.
To us she's HRH PRINCESS DIANA, kindhearted, loving & down to earth beautiful Peoples Princess 🇺🇲🙏❤
I think Diana really loved Charles. She seemed very romantic and idealistic in the beginning. What a blow it must have been when your suspicions became real. I believe she was lonely and doing those charitable works made her happy and with purpose. She made some mistakes herself and in the end her judgment to not have royal protection may have made a difference.
Diana did love Charles, but Charles didn't love her.
@@MarieCassidy-zd8sc
Diana loved the title. She would have married anyone to get it.
@livingincaptivityIII No, she was a teenage girl, and teenagers do like the fairy tale romance. Their marriage never. stood a chance
@@livingincaptivityIII Absolutely absurd statement. She was born with a title and into a family who could trace their royal roots back to Richard the first
A much clearer line of succession than the 19 th century influx of the Saxe Coburg and Gothas, many of whom didn't even speak English
The Spencer family have a long established history of English Royalty.
.
Look, they were terribly mismatched. 50% of all marriages fail. Charles was willing to carry on with discrete separate lives, not unlike many prominent people. Diana not only was not willing to do that, she was spiteful and went public. I doubt she could have been happy with any man. Too needy. Too damaged from childhood.
Diana, as well as her siblings, hated their step-mother Raine, who was Cartland's daughter.
They ended up very close after that tho 😂
I like her understated makeup....
Interesting to know that a divorcee cannot ascend to the throne, but a widower can. All so convenient and an assumption that marrying a young Virgin bride will be good optics, and the Royal Prince can take lovers, like they traditionally did 16:04 16:04 16:04 16:04 16:04 p
What a absolutely gorgeous Lady 😍 ❤️ 💖 telling the truth about the Royals❤
She didn’t know Diana, she was her step grandmother, they called BarbaraCartland Widow Twankey. Diana was adult when her father married Raine and though Jane and Sarah were ok with it, Diana physically attacked her father and Raine, pushing her down the stairs , she was hurt quite badly when Johnny Spencer died, after being cared for by Raine for a long time, Diana and her brother turned up at Althorp before the funeral and told Raine to get out, Raine packed her clothing into trunks which Diana emptied and threw the contents out if the front door….very classy. Barbara Cartland is jumping on a band wagon here, she’s plugging her books.
😂🤡
Obviously did her own makeup. Cruel to let her appear on camera like that. I met her a few times. Mutual respect for health foods and vitamins
Actually I think Dame Barbara looked wonderful. Yes the makeup was alot but it was still passable. Obviously a very beautiful looking lady (still was good looking in her 90s). Eternal is her memory.
The makeup was her trademark. She always overdid the eyes and didn’t care- She did things her own way.
Could nobody on the production team help her with her make-up. Barbara was a super star, they don’t make them like that anymore!
😂😂😂 No one was going to approach Dame Barbara Cartland about her makeup!!! She was an eccentric English aristocrat - they would not have dared!!
She was known for her makeup being like this
Dame Barbara gave a lot of pleasure to many, many people and was a force for good in the world...
The Dame has a short memory. Diana was sent off to boarding school as soon as her dad remarried. They didn't even want to love her when she was a kid. That's messed up.
Wow she was amazing she put her good heath down to extra vitamins and honey. Loved her pearl necklace too
Wonderful interview! I also love Barbar💎 🌺🥀🌺
That was a remarkable interview, in fact, I would say one of the very best descriptions of Princess Diana. Dame Barbara has hit the nail on the head, the Princess was certainly undervalued. Dame Barbara herself is a remarkable woman and is quite correct in saying we all want love! Thank you Dame Barbara for your words and inspiration to the world. Eternal are the memories of both the Princess of Wales, Diana and Dame Barbara Cartland. I hope the boys have seen this touching remembrance.
Diana certainly gave love to a lot of people
Dame Carland is right in her opinion. Diana was a loving, compassionate woman. But even though the royal family made mistakes it's not their fault she died tragically. And I believe Charles did love her. May lady Diana Spencer R.I.P.
People forget she was just a teenager when Charles in his 30s proposed to Diana, knowing he was still going to sleep with a married woman. Then Diana was pregnant by 20 and Charles & Camilla were flaunting their affair to humiliate her, and the media are still cruel by making Diana look like the crazy one.
@@SuzLa1The worst thing is that they try to wash our minds by saying that C& C love is true This is something my mind cannot accept
Well Karma now Cancer For the Adulterer Charles. He exchanged a Gorgeous Princess Diana for an Ugly Cowmilla Rottweiler Hag. He's pure nonsense. The death of Charles Tampon and Adulteress Cowmilla will be forgotten and irrelevant in just a day. Queen Diana's Legacy Lives on for generations till this day and her Bloodline continues

Remember she is a very old lady.This is how old people speak.
A lot of younger people speak worse.
A darling abused badly by the rotten selfish RF 😡
Awful bbc reporter, martin bashir faked documents inc bank statements. To make Diana think all sorts was going on. In order to get her to do that interview that ended her marriage for good.
Bashir made her so untrusting of the royal family.
The royal family were not awful to Diana. Charles gave her the queen mothers funeral plan. Insisted on it. Flew straight out to pray with her sisters by her bedside Diana still un a hospital room.
She had great love inside that shined and touched all hearts. Hate is the absence of love. Haters spew hate that is inside them.
I love all Barbara’s books!! I read them all!!❤️❤️
All 723...:):)
Thank you so much Dame Barbara. What wise words you spoke. We need more people like you and Princess Diana. What a shame you are both gone. X.

Awesome. Dame Barbara Cartland she excellent novelist and live remarkable life England London. She miss greatly.Dame Barbara Cartland. She good in crisis. She super rich Thomas.
@@ThomasBoyd-d7j
Excellent novelist?
Surely you must be joking?
Her romantic, badly written novels were pure trash. She churned them out with similar plots for readers with no discernment or taste.
What a disgusting waste of trees!
oh dear she just wants to sell her books
Wonderful old lady keeping the flame of her late granddaughter alight.
She was not related to Diana, certainly not her grandmother. Your comment is ridiculous.
@bradpaul8576 she was her step grandmother. It's all ok.
@@gerrynyack3143 that does not make her Diana’s grandmother by any stretch of the imagination. Raine, Barbara’s daughter was not her birth mother and for most of her life Diana resented her and thought she was a horror!
Her Grandmother was Ruth,Lady Fermoy.
Boggles my mind that people still accept this sh*t😢😢😢😢
What a mean thing to say.
It is the ITV reviewer who is trying hard to make BC criticize the Royal Family which she doesn’t. But her eye makeup should have been taken better care of.
Yes, the interviewer tried so hard to put the blamed words into BC’s mouth.
@@PJ-wn4ge And she kept trying, very delicately, to push it away.
Some famous man once said of her makeup "the eyes looked like a pair of black crows had crashed into the white cliffs of Dover."
But I’m sure she thought she looked lovely. I adore the elderly.
That's how she loved her makeup. Don't bring today's toxic media tripe on Ms BC
I can't see footage of Dame Barbara Cartland without thinking of Clive James description of her eyes. He said they looked "like the corpses of two small crows that had crashed into a chalk cliff".
Clive James obviously hadn't stood in front of the mirror in a few decades....People in glass houses....
It's great invective, but Barbara Cartland was ok.
Beautiful
Barbara Cartland spoke with such authority and certainly about subjects whether she knew anything about them or not. Totally out of touch but such a character.
Raines mother ...her books were revolutionary for the time.❤️
Insipid fairytales.
Cartland’s books were turned out quickly, all with similar plots and romantic trash!
@@FritillaryNana
723. What a terrible waste of trees.
But even the devil believes in God. The only way to be forgiven of your sins, have a relationship God and go to heaven is through Jesus. I encourage you to read John 14:6 and John 3:16.
Diana was after Andrew when she spotted Charles sitting alone one day and sidled over fluttering her eyelashes. She pretended to like everything that Charles loved, outdoorsy stuff, until they were married then had mood swings and huffs whenever he wanted to do something he liked. She came from a dysfunctional home and was dysfunctional herself. He became petrified to be in her company as he had no idea how to deal with her behaviour. It's a shame for both of them, really.
This is year's old, digging up the past, Barbara Cartland has been dead since 2000, for goodness sake, let the past go and move on.
And this woman is the ultimate in good taste? As for her books, if you've managed to read one, you've read them all
How well did she actually know Diana in all honestly.
she was her stemother's mother, so they were actually family
She didn’t, Diana was an adult when her father married Raine and Diana was furious.They saw little of her.
@@jackieporter5323 Diana was not an adult, they were still children. And she was furious because Raine was not her mother and yet came into the family home uninvited. Nevertheless, she was a massive Barbara Cartland fan
@@SevillaStorytime they never lived in Althorp as children , Diana was about to leave school when the said attack took place .
Obviously not well at all.
The Royal Family were jealous of her popularity. They just couldn’t handle it or bear not to be number 1 in the public eye. Look at the mess they are in now & I still believe they are all jealous of one another. So sad the tragic way Diana passed away ❤😅 I have my theories but I shall keep those to myself x
Princess Diana changed the Monarchy & brought it into modern times.
Her Sacrifice was the price for change equally Titanic's foundering changed Marine law making ocean Travel safe for everyone.
Sometimes & as tragic as it is, change means sacrifice. If we want to evolve & move forward towards clarity & Enlightenment we do need to revise ourselves individually as in the case of the Monarchy, Queen Elizabeth knew this but unfortunately was too late for Diana but it did help QE2 make change because her death changed QE2.
The Monarchy more or less martyred Diana to maintain its old ways, The Queen knew this but it forced the queen to step up to modern times.
I just hope the Monarchy doesn't forget this sacrifice & continue to change with the times without changing the continuity of its institution & what it stands for.
Themonarchy still has a ways to go but its doing it & that's is Diana's legacy. LOVE should be the cornerstone & foundation of a Monarchy & unifies it with the people.
"whatever in love means" ---- CIII
Exactly...
Mature adults love.
Perpetual teenagers are "in love" and out of it just as quickly.
Charles is a mature adult. Diana read this woman's silly romance novels.
@@livingincaptivityIIIIf he was mature at the time he was seeing Diana he’d have told his mother they were not suited. He was/is spineless. He knew his affair with Camilla would carry on and Diana’s feelings were of no consequence to him.
@@nanabuster7285
Diana misrepresented herself and her father and grandmother helped her. She showed her true self on the honeymoon. By then, it was too late.
I remember that comment I knew that he didn’t love her The rf wanted a young woman to have babies and tolerate his affair
How can she say how wonderful Diana was when she pushed her daughter down the stairs?
She loved the Royal connection more than she loved her daughter. Diana's own father and grandmother lied to the Royal family to maintain it.
what a lovely lady
Bravissima!
Diana knew exactly what she was doing when dating one middle eastern millionaire after another. She knew this would cause great upset and embarrassment to the royal family. That's why she chose this particular demographic.
She also knew that getting herself filmed doing 'humanitarian' charitable events and deeds is great publicity, that's why she arranged for many news cameras to film her doing it.
She knew what the marriage to Charles would consist of, that he would most probably have at least one mistress, it's almost a given in these circles and she was aware of this.
She wasn't stupid and was very aware of the potential consequences. Yet she carried on manipulating the situation.
I'm not saying it's fair or right what happened to her but she certainly was not naïve to what was going on.
But just maybe Charles could have been a stand up guy. Looking at Diana and Camilla, she probably thought he would love her. They could have been a great couple.
oen after another? She only dated one, and that was for one month, nothing more
Only dated one billionaires son because Hassnat Khan was NOT a billionaire
Charles cheated on her from the get go
Neither Egypt nor Pakistan are in the Middle East.
This same.woman practicly said that diana was stupid.
Silly woman...fed Diana loads of nonsense with her books. That is one crazy family
The RF used and abused diana. They killed her so charles could marry the rottweiler
Team Diana fell in love with the media creation of the fairytale princess Diana, but the truth is that, Diana Spencer was very complex.
The real Princess of Wales Diana, had a very dark side, first seen in her childhood. The real Diana Spencer was brutal to her staff, even family, cutting people off in the turn of her head.
Leaving many hurt and bewildered.
Oh, shut your nostril hole.
3 years later after Dianas death she died too
A circus clown making fun of others😂
No sound
Good plug for her books!
I wonder if she has written a book
ended watching this video after her 3rd plug for her books!
Barbara Cartland snd the Queen Mother
Both were fake
Is that eye shadow or Preparation H?
She just wanted to promote her books 😂
😂😂 I think she meant what she said but I get what you mean…. she kept plugging her books.
I wonder if Ms Cartland was aware that Diana has pushed Ms Cartland's daughter, Raine, down a flight of stairs when Raine herself was quite elderly already?
Why are you dragging this up she has been dead for nearly 30 years?
💥💥♥️♥️💥💥
Charles, (then Prince of Wales) married, who he was TOLD to marry. Just as her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II married, who she was told to marry. I don’t believe for one second that she defied the then Queen Elizabeth (Queen consort) and married Prince Philip against the firm’s wishes. But I will say this one thing about the late princess Diana, who was also an aristocrat. She knew how families like that worked. Her grandmother, the Lady Fermoy was a Lady waiting to her Queen Elizabeth (the queen consort.)
They didn’t take away her stuff she turned it down in fact she said herself the rf offered her full protection at all times she turned it down!! And if anyone is to blame for her death it’s her drunk driver and her getting in the car no seatbelt with a drunk driver ! I am no royalist but I know and watched her interviews and things her own friends and family have said!
Selfish Charles!
Diana was not educated, to busy with expensive clothes, and had a narcist and unstable personality. Compare that with the mutch more intelligent down to earth Queen Camilla who is far better for the job.
Un cerveau pas plus grand qu' un pois
nonsense , i never met Diana, 99 .999999 never did, and cried over someone they never knew,
Diana is related to her.
Only by marriage.
I’m glad Barbra Cartland - is she a Duchess? Is not alive today ,what would she think of Harry wife.?
Is she having a stroke?
Are you??
Rubbish
Yeah ! The same thing should happen to Meghan Markle before everyone of you can standup for her and give interviews highlighting, how wonderful she is and how the royal family couldn't understand her genuine goodness 😢
Seven strands of lustrous pearls 😶. I'm devastated 😭.
Probably she felt more would be excessive.
