Agreed. Sad thing Martin Bashir convinced Diana to do the interview based on forgeries. Had she never met Bashir (who led her to believe the royals were spying on her) she might still be alive.
They treated her worse than they treated Margaret. She tried to tell them all how bad felt, but they blew her off. So why are they surprised and angry that she gave this interview? She had to tell her side of her story. What’s sad is that she was treated like trash for so many years. That’s a lot of pain to carry around and live with. I can now see why people think that the RF (the firm) had her killed.
thing is, it's not entirely true what she says. She might have felt that way, but regarding the bulimia - Charles was very worried for her when she started to become so thin, and he did try to get her help. But back then not many people understood the illness and she didn't really like the psychologists and doctors he got for her. But that he didn't care at all isn't true. I suppose he did give up on her after a while and that sin is on him. The queen was horrified when she threw herself down the stairs, but Diana perceived it as she was simply afraid for the baby - the future heir.

I think, out of all the storylines that have been covered on "The Crown", the infamous interview with Martin Bashir was the one that everyone involved behind the scenes were absolutely dreading having to do. But I applaud them for it. I suspect that Netflix's lawyers were probably watching those scenes very closely and I suspect the Palace lawyers were watching those scenes closely. Because now we know how Martin Bashir secured that interview and how he preyed on Diana's insecurities and vulnerabilities...
Very brave of her. She took on the royal family all by herself. What a rotten, joyless system! Diana was right to break free, and so was Harry. Bravo Harry. Diana was so loved, more than all the royals combined. RIP Princess Di.
@@MTknitter22 True, but I think the Queen ACTUALLY understood Diana though, woman to woman. Charles was/is a twit that didn't EVER deserve her. She was WAY too real and down to 🌎 for him and the Royal Family generally speaking.
@@benschaeffer8102Diana never deserved to marry a Prince. If she wasn’t Charles’ wife, no one would have paid attention on that uneducated, below average looking brat. Way too real and ground to earth? 😂😂😂😂
I think she told the truth as she saw it. That does not mean that her analysis of the situation was accurate or that she was in a good frame of mind when she did the interview.
He did an interview first and then she got the blame. He admitted to being a cheater and she was the one who was exiled and ruthlessly bashed by the public. He was the one who started it all. Played her and got her to marry him to piss of Camilla. When he couldn't go through with the arranged marriage he instantly sort company in Camilla. The harsh truth is he duped her from the beginning. The media took advantage of her vulnerability. He never felt guilty. He wanted to humiliate her. He got what he wanted and she passed awat in such a horrible way.
@@veronicalambertis7400 She certainly shot herself in the foot! Neither the Andrew Morton book or the BBC interview were well thought out. Diana was not smart enough, mentally strong enough or independently wealthy enough to go up against the BRF (the system -- "the Firm"). She should have listened to Prince Philip She should have compromised with the BRF. *But she did not want to do so!* Also, she liked the attention of the Paps; so she notified them of her activities to get more media attention for herself. (Then she turned around and complained about them! ... Can't have it both ways!) The very sad and very ironic thing is that both of her sons were almost grown up. (Harry would have been 18 in less than six years) After William had reached his majority (age 21) she could have done what she wanted to do. *So long as she did not* *attract undo attention to herself!* (But she liked to notify the Paps to get attention. Had she not died, it would have continued)
@@here_we_go_again2571 Well said but remember Diana was difficult and defiant and willful. Her tantrums and verbal insults were ugly and bitter 😡😡😡. And maybe this is why she was firing her staff members. Her mother tried to reason with Diana and advised her to not get into the royal family. Her father asked Charles before the wedding if Charles was impressed by Diana and Charles said yes to Johnny Spencer's question. The Earl Spencer supposedly replied "then you haven't seen the other side of Diana". Hmmm. I wonder if this detached father was trying to "warn" Prince Charles? It is documented a few times that Diana and her father weren't very close. Diana seemed to be closer to her sister Jane and somewhat to her brother Charles.
As much as I love Diana as a child, I stopped demonizing Charles as I got older. Great father to his sons, horrible husband to Diana. The failure of their marriage was both of their faults. His grandmother and uncle keeping him and Camilla apart. Diana finding out that Charles was in love with Camilla before they got married. She wanted to call it off but caved under pressure since the wedding seemed too big to cancel. He cheated. She cheated. Like Kim Kardashian, sometimes Diana did things to intently draw media attention to herself and used the media to take her revenge on Charles like with the revenge dress. If everyone would have let well alone, Charles would have married Camilla and Diana would be alive, happy, and married to someone else. Their forced marriage was a tragedy.
@@JoanMorrison-vq2jc any monarch must be respected by his subjects... He for sure is not... That's what I mean... And if he doesn't count on his people then he is not a true king... I don't see Camilla as an intellectual and charming lady...
This scene of "The crown" was well acted. The tension and angst was thick as pea soup! (How accurate compared to real events?) I rewatched it while silencing the dialogue. The facial expressions of the actors were amazing. (Well done!) In my opinion, from a strategic standpoint: Diana lit a bomb (knowingly or unknowingly) under the entire BRF system! In retrospect: *That BBC interview with Martin Bashir was the* *stupidest thing Diana could have done; closely * *followed, (secondly) by those taped interviews for* *the Andrew Morton's book!* Neither left her any plausible deniability against charges that she was at war with the whole system. *In my opinion:* (Yeah, I know -- "Monday morning quarterbacking"): That bit about her being able to connect and to love the British people and giving them love was rather self-aggrandizing of her. (I also think that there was a little bit of revenge regarding Charles and Camilla) The British people didn't ask for Diana's or the BRF's love. The British public resented being sold an expensive bill of goods with the love story between Charles and Diana. *The public sympathized with Diana.* (The reality is that the public was never that fond of Charles, even before the Bashir interview) *In addition Diana should not have used Willian as her* *personal confidant* (too much for a teen to bear; being his mother's emotional release valve) Hmm - *No mention of Harry in the Crown's version of the* *events of the Bashir interview* I suspect that there was probably a lot of acting out, by Harry, as the real events were transpiring -- As well as by William!
I’m glad that there aren’t weird monarchists in the comments defending the family for how they treated her. Many people in her life were witness to the abuse and have spoken out since her death. Her memoirs and the audio recordings she did (not under false pretenses) are still very much out there and are worth listening to if you have doubts. For some reason they always like to bring up how much she shopped as if that diminished reality or the role she played in funding philanthropic ventures and charities- or that she was a loving mother to her two sons.
@@Patrick3183 Well said! All her whining over nearly everything was irritating. Diana USED Charles for a title. Diana took all her married boyfriends back to Kensington Palace. Charles remained with his one true love Camilla. Not everything can be blamed on Camilla and Charles infidelity or Diana's youth! The Diana worship? Women should have better role models!!
@JoanMorrison-vq2jc I admittedly don't know a lot about Charles's and Diana's relationship before or after they got married, all I know was it was very rocky, to put it in simple terms. Though I do think Diana was wrong to air hers, and the royal family's dirty laundry to the press, and the public like she did. As a senior member of the Royal family it seems very unprofessional despite what her own feelings may be on the subject. Instead, she could've found a close friend or confidant. I'm not saying Charles had his own problems, it certainly seems like he did, but yeah.
@@canadiangoose9086 Thanks for the reply! I agree with you. I enjoyed the statement you made about Diana going to a friend or confident. She needed to release her hurts but decided to write a book about Charles and the royal family instead. Sad. I think it's time to move on. Diana has been gone for over two decades now and I hope she is resting in peace ✌️✌️. Be happy. Be safe.
@l.a.3479. Check out YOUR post! You also "knocked" Diana! You stated, "She wasn't 5 years old when she did the interview". Hmmm. However, you are right. I should consult The Holy Trinity. Disdain of a person never helps. I went too far. Diana passed away decades ago. I'll get off these videos! Unfortunately they are addictive for me after a while. LoL 😆🤣 🤣. Take care 🎉🎉.
People accuse of the late Princess Diana of many things but no matter how wrong you think she is, she shouldn't have to endure being married to a man who's never been faithful to her from day one and being forced to endure it alone. That is not just damaging but downright abusive. Any ordinary woman on this earth would've divorced the creep right at the instance of the first affair and yet not only she had to endure it, she even had to keep up the facade to pretend to the world that everything is fine and still at the same time dedicate herself so much to her charity work helping so many people. Sometimes we really don't realize how strong and courage Princess Diana is. She even confronted the homewrecker and told her to back off and they still continued on. And they blame HER for giving this interview?? Seriously?? For what? For telling the truth? What did she expect her to do? Just shut up and put up with it quietly, let the affairs continue and continue to do her duties while waiting to be rewarded with the Queen Consort title at last?
Today "washing one's clothes" in public seem to be more normalized and expected at some point from famous and noble people. But in 1995 that was sure daring, but it really harmed the rest, very much alike what we see in that clip... We still love you and miss you Lady Di

To see a woman go through such pain because of another woman transgressions is a horrific feeling. Everyone knows what it is to be hurt by someone you love and suppose to love you. No matter how long she has been gone this will always be a dagger for the Royal family. I see the so call Queen for whom she is. A home wrecker, husband theif , soul snatcher and that is every wife nightmare. Camilla is the real Freddy Kruger
The Royal family had nothing to do with Diana's death. The extensive French and British enquiries found the Fayed family to be responsible for their lack of adequate protection on the night. Also the paparazzi. The Royal family didn't know that Diana was still in Paris.
@@cg8397 Charles may have been comparing the two women in his life and obviously Camilla is the woman Charles will defend. She was his great love. Diana was just an air-headed, vile, SHREW! Charles knew that Camilla wouldn't write a book about him or give interviews or...
She didn't do any damage to the family whatsoever. What are you talking about? You're suggesting she was lying? The royal family believed they have the privilege of crushing her under their boots and she would have to take it, they were revealed to be quite stupid for believing so. Telling the truth when the people that truth harms want you to sacrifice yourself and lie for them is the right thing to do.
@@tanisabenulic2861 she shamed and ridiculed her children?! What are you talking about? How sis Diana do that? By not feeling the shame you think she deserved lolol? How are people this old on TH-cam?
How she never took vengeance by preventing Charles from marrying that wench, i will never know. Making him a spectacle and forcing him to march into society with his pants down. Reminds me of the queen of serpents. Sometimes...I think. People so loving like Diana...I dont think they were ever meant to be put in that position.
Will someone please tell me: how has interviewing Diana cost Martin Bashir in his career? It was DIANA who did all the talking. Or is it because Bashir is non-Caucasian?
An independent inquiry by Lord Dyson has found that journalist Martin Bashir used deceit to organise the interview with Panorama, in which she claimed Price Charles’s staff were waging a campaign against her, and opened up about adultery and her mental health. The report says Mr Bashir gained the trust of Diana’s brother, Earl Spencer, by showing him forged bank statements, which convinced the peer to introduce the reporter to the princess. (Copied from news article).
Diana became sentimental, emotional. If you really want revenge, you have to play it smart. Shut your heart and be one with the system. Never agree to a divorce. Make the husband and mistress suffer their whole life. Now that would be the real play.
@@fahimfaisalmahir567That would've worked, but then Charles was foolish enough to publicly out Camilla as his mistress during the Dimbleby interview. (He became the first British Royal male to acknowledge a mistress in the press.)
@@cg8397 Charles and Camilla probably looked like two angels compared to Diana taking all her married boyfriends back to Kensington Palace! And giving interviews and writing a book about Charles. Charles remained with his one true love Camilla 💞😊.

@VenosEvans. Very well said! Diana was treacherous and messed up since her childhood! I feel bad about that to some extent. Had they dated longer I think Charles would have seen Diana as emotionally unstable and devious and Charles would have been able to get himself out of the relationship.
2:57 “I’d like to be a queen of people’s hearts…in people’s hearts.” This is a saccharine line more suitable for a greeting card than an interviews. I think it demonstrates how she needed help getting a grip on reality and not living in some sort of fairy tail she had in her head. Unfortunately, Britain was at a crossroads where either no one could understand her struggles OR they endorsed them. She needed a third option.
@fortranwarrior8716. Very well said! I agree! Remember Diana was just putting words in "the people's" mouths!! A third option would be to grow up and get on with some worthy causes quietly and DISCREETLY without the royal family. STOP bothering them. Traitor 😮😮!! I enjoyed the statement of the saccharine line more suitable for a greeting card! LoL 🤣🤣🤣.
🎉😂🎉😂. Diana needed a very strict Tommy Lascelles in her life! Lascelles could put anyone in their place including this air head. He probably would have put her on a very strict schedule because I think Diana had too much time on her hands. Unfortunately, Lascelles retired before she married Charles. She was like a train off its track 😞😭😞.
Diana was a bully to her staff, she would literally bully them until they left if she didn't like someone, she was amazing actress though she put on quite the performance for that interview and for the world in general. Read The House keepers diary for the real Diana ;)
Well said. I agree. Behind the palace doors Diana was emotionally unstable and treacherous and too messed up. She even fired some of Charles's staff!! He was so embarrassed and rightfully so. Horrible woman!! 😢😢
The real interview was a prime example for manipulation and playing the victim. I can't believe anyone fell for these ridiculous puppy eyes soaked in Kajal.
@@bluehydrangea5506 Well said! Had Diana lived she would still be fighting over Charles and Camilla being crowned or rescuing Charles from his illness - she was such a victim AND a hero! LoL 😂😂. Maybe her young death made her this hero? Or she would be putting Harry and William back together? In reality what did Diana ever do for the people of Wales?
@@JoanMorrison-vq2jc i also cant with the victim narrative. She was young yes but she was part of the system herself and knew what she was getting into (had she been alive she wouldve been constantly trying to upstage kate and airing out her dirty laundry a la meghan and harry or hopping from one broken marriage to the next. Her dying turned her into a saint). The crown is also heavily biased and is not real life but ppl seem to think it is
Diana was whining/complaining all the time despite being an adult and having all the luxuries of life..if she had stopped worrying about the affairs her husband was having and focused on her role as princess of wales,it would have endured her to Charles automatically.. remember guys a man,no matter how many extra marital affairs he has, will always come back to a loyal, caring and respectful wife..
Wow, if you actually feel that you either have no clue or you think Chuckie and Camilla are just so wonderful...Chuckie is a pathetic idiot and Camilla is a homewrecker. Diana had every right to speak out, just as Harry has done. You can tell Harry took after his mother and William is just like his father, almost makes me wonder if William has a woman on the side and if he'll do Kate like Chuckie did his mother.

@@MTknitter22 true point...at the end of the day its her and she chose to do it.
Diana you will forever be remembered and you mattered ❤️
Whatever you think of her. Love her or hate her but that interview was the most badass thing ever happened on world stage.
Well acted.In real life Diana made a huge impact and was carving her own path until that tragic night in August 1997.The Peoples Princess.Never forgotten.
I think, out of all the storylines that have been covered on "The Crown", the infamous interview with Martin Bashir was the one that everyone involved behind the scenes were absolutely dreading having to do. But I applaud them for it. I suspect that Netflix's lawyers were probably watching those scenes very closely and I suspect the Palace lawyers were watching those scenes closely. Because now we know how Martin Bashir secured that interview and how he preyed on Diana's insecurities and vulnerabilities...
Very brave of her. She took on the royal family all by herself. What a rotten, joyless system! Diana was right to break free, and so was Harry. Bravo Harry. Diana was so loved, more than all the royals combined. RIP Princess Di.
I think she told the CANDID truth and Charles JUST couldn't take it.
@@benschaeffer8102 neither could the Queen.
@@MTknitter22 True, but I think the Queen ACTUALLY understood Diana though, woman to woman.
Charles was/is a twit that didn't EVER deserve her. She was WAY too real and down to 🌎 for him and the Royal Family generally speaking.
@@benschaeffer8102Diana never deserved to marry a Prince. If she wasn’t Charles’ wife, no one would have paid attention on that uneducated, below average looking brat. Way too real and ground to earth? 😂😂😂😂
I think she told the truth as
she saw it. That does not
mean that her analysis of
the situation was accurate
or that she was in a good
frame of mind when she
did the interview.
He did an interview first and then she got the blame. He admitted to being a cheater and she was the one who was exiled and ruthlessly bashed by the public. He was the one who started it all. Played her and got her to marry him to piss of Camilla. When he couldn't go through with the arranged marriage he instantly sort company in Camilla. The harsh truth is he duped her from the beginning. The media took advantage of her vulnerability. He never felt guilty. He wanted to humiliate her. He got what he wanted and she passed awat in such a horrible way.
2:22 What the hell is she doing?!!
Me: Being true to herself, that’s what she’s doing!
3:37 the relief she might have felt
There wasn't much she
could do after that interview.
She had crossed the proverbial
Rubicon.
@@here_we_go_again2571it was reported that Diana regretted the interview.
@@veronicalambertis7400
She certainly shot herself in the foot!
Neither the Andrew Morton book or the
BBC interview were well thought out.
Diana was not smart enough, mentally
strong enough or independently wealthy
enough to go up against the BRF (the
system -- "the Firm").
She should have listened to Prince Philip
She should have compromised with the
BRF. *But she did not want to do so!*
Also, she liked the attention of the Paps;
so she notified them of her activities to
get more media attention for herself.
(Then she turned around and complained
about them! ... Can't have it both ways!)
The very sad and very ironic thing is that both of her sons were almost grown up. (Harry would have been 18 in less than six years)
After William had reached his majority (age 21) she could have done what she wanted to do. *So long as she did not*
*attract undo attention to herself!*
(But she liked to notify the Paps to get attention. Had she not died, it would
have continued)
@@here_we_go_again2571 Well said but remember Diana was difficult and defiant and willful. Her tantrums and verbal insults were ugly and bitter 😡😡😡. And maybe this is why she was firing her staff members. Her mother tried to reason with Diana and advised her to not get into the royal family. Her father asked Charles before the wedding if Charles was impressed by Diana and Charles said yes to Johnny Spencer's question. The Earl Spencer supposedly replied "then you haven't seen the other side of Diana". Hmmm. I wonder if this detached father was trying to "warn" Prince Charles? It is documented a few times that Diana and her father weren't very close. Diana seemed to be closer to her sister Jane and somewhat to her brother Charles.
Well played ! I though it was the real late Lady Di for a moment! thank you
Goodness,such amazing acting from these women.
I can never forgive Charles
As much as I love Diana as a child, I stopped demonizing Charles as I got older. Great father to his sons, horrible husband to Diana. The failure of their marriage was both of their faults. His grandmother and uncle keeping him and Camilla apart. Diana finding out that Charles was in love with Camilla before they got married. She wanted to call it off but caved under pressure since the wedding seemed too big to cancel. He cheated. She cheated. Like Kim Kardashian, sometimes Diana did things to intently draw media attention to herself and used the media to take her revenge on Charles like with the revenge dress. If everyone would have let well alone, Charles would have married Camilla and Diana would be alive, happy, and married to someone else. Their forced marriage was a tragedy.
You never forgave, Charles? Oh darn. And he was counting on that so much.
@@JoanMorrison-vq2jc not only me... Everyone I know... Everyone... More than thousands of people... They all hate him...
@@anuradhashukla1771 Oops. I meant to say "Oh darn and Charles was counting on ALL of you so much".

This scene of "The crown" was well acted. The tension
and angst was thick as pea soup! (How accurate
compared to real events?) I rewatched it while silencing
the dialogue. The facial expressions of the actors were amazing. (Well done!)
In my opinion, from a strategic standpoint: Diana lit a
bomb (knowingly or unknowingly) under the entire
BRF system! In retrospect:
*That BBC interview with Martin Bashir was the*
*stupidest thing Diana could have done; closely *
*followed, (secondly) by those taped interviews for*
*the Andrew Morton's book!*
Neither left her any plausible deniability against
charges that she was at war with the whole system.
*In my opinion:*
(Yeah, I know -- "Monday morning quarterbacking"):
That bit about her being able to connect and to love
the British people and giving them love was rather
self-aggrandizing of her. (I also think that there was
a little bit of revenge regarding Charles and Camilla)
The British people didn't ask for Diana's or the BRF's love.
The British public resented being sold an expensive
bill of goods with the love story between Charles and
Diana. *The public sympathized with Diana.* (The reality
is that the public was never that fond of Charles, even
before the Bashir interview)
*In addition Diana should not have used Willian as her* *personal confidant* (too much for a teen to bear;
being his mother's emotional release valve) Hmm -
*No mention of Harry in the Crown's version of the*
*events of the Bashir interview* I suspect that there
was probably a lot of acting out, by Harry, as the real
events were transpiring -- As well as by William!

True, but some parents do it 😒
I’m glad that there aren’t weird monarchists in the comments defending the family for how they treated her. Many people in her life were witness to the abuse and have spoken out since her death. Her memoirs and the audio recordings she did (not under false pretenses) are still very much out there and are worth listening to if you have doubts. For some reason they always like to bring up how much she shopped as if that diminished reality or the role she played in funding philanthropic ventures and charities- or that she was a loving mother to her two sons.
Trust me, we’re here. And we’re sick of Diana worship.
@@Patrick3183 Well said! All her whining over nearly everything was irritating. Diana USED Charles for a title. Diana took all her married boyfriends back to Kensington Palace. Charles remained with his one true love Camilla. Not everything can be blamed on Camilla and Charles infidelity or Diana's youth! The Diana worship? Women should have better role models!!
@JoanMorrison-vq2jc I admittedly don't know a lot about Charles's and Diana's relationship before or after they got married, all I know was it was very rocky, to put it in simple terms. Though I do think Diana was wrong to air hers, and the royal family's dirty laundry to the press, and the public like she did. As a senior member of the Royal family it seems very unprofessional despite what her own feelings may be on the subject. Instead, she could've found a close friend or confidant. I'm not saying Charles had his own problems, it certainly seems like he did, but yeah.
@@canadiangoose9086 Thanks for the reply! I agree with you. I enjoyed the statement you made about Diana going to a friend or confident. She needed to release her hurts but decided to write a book about Charles and the royal family instead. Sad. I think it's time to move on. Diana has been gone for over two decades now and I hope she is resting in peace ✌️✌️. Be happy. Be safe.
@@Patrick3183Lmao you finally admitted that you are weirdos! Congratulations!
She must not have cared about anything anymore. I would not have done this- given THIS interview. I would fear repercussions from this.
So sad . She was all by her self at the most difficult times in her life just like me 😢
Camilla is the mother, Charles never had, and a lover in one

People accuse of the late Princess Diana of many things but no matter how wrong you think she is, she shouldn't have to endure being married to a man who's never been faithful to her from day one and being forced to endure it alone. That is not just damaging but downright abusive. Any ordinary woman on this earth would've divorced the creep right at the instance of the first affair and yet not only she had to endure it, she even had to keep up the facade to pretend to the world that everything is fine and still at the same time dedicate herself so much to her charity work helping so many people. Sometimes we really don't realize how strong and courage Princess Diana is. She even confronted the homewrecker and told her to back off and they still continued on. And they blame HER for giving this interview?? Seriously?? For what? For telling the truth?
What did she expect her to do? Just shut up and put up with it quietly, let the affairs continue and continue to do her duties while waiting to be rewarded with the Queen Consort title at last?
Today "washing one's clothes" in public seem to be more normalized and expected at some point from famous and noble people. But in 1995 that was sure daring, but it really harmed the rest, very much alike what we see in that clip... We still love you and miss you Lady Di
They saw Diana with me
Bravo to our Sweet Queen of Hearts - always remember!

Ok I get an idea what the britain thinks about her through the comments , but it's the opposite for us not in the britain
anyone has spotify link to the song?
To see a woman go through such pain because of another woman transgressions is a horrific feeling. Everyone knows what it is to be hurt by someone you love and suppose to love you. No matter how long she has been gone this will always be a dagger for the Royal family. I see the so call Queen for whom she is. A home wrecker, husband theif , soul snatcher and that is every wife nightmare. Camilla is the real Freddy Kruger
I wonder what the real reaction was .. perhaps similar but i would love to know
They treated her abominably and worse yet, they killed her.
Good riddance
The Royal family had nothing to do with Diana's death. The extensive French and British enquiries found the Fayed family to be responsible for their lack of adequate protection on the night. Also the paparazzi. The Royal family didn't know that Diana was still in Paris.
1000% believe they took her out.
What is Charles mad for?
She's made Camilla look bad again. That's all he cares about.
@@cg8397 Charles may have been comparing the two women in his life and obviously Camilla is the woman Charles will defend. She was his great love. Diana was just an air-headed, vile, SHREW! Charles knew that Camilla wouldn't write a book about him or give interviews or...

Such such good acting. She did a lot of damage to the family.
She didn't do any damage to the family whatsoever. What are you talking about? You're suggesting she was lying?
The royal family believed they have the privilege of crushing her under their boots and she would have to take it, they were revealed to be quite stupid for believing so. Telling the truth when the people that truth harms want you to sacrifice yourself and lie for them is the right thing to do.

Will someone please tell me: how has interviewing Diana cost Martin Bashir in his career? It was DIANA who did all the talking. Or is it because Bashir is non-Caucasian?
He convinced Diana to give the interview by showing her fake documents about royal family that made her paranoid..
An independent inquiry by Lord Dyson has found that journalist Martin Bashir used deceit to organise the interview with Panorama, in which she claimed Price Charles’s staff were waging a campaign against her, and opened up about adultery and her mental health. The report says Mr Bashir gained the trust of Diana’s brother, Earl Spencer, by showing him forged bank statements, which convinced the peer to introduce the reporter to the princess. (Copied from news article).
He showed her fake documents that showed people are spying or her for money. So he got the interview by basically committing fraud.
The way that he secured the interview and how he preyed on Diana's insecurities was what cost Martin Bashir his career.
Diana did what she wanted. Only when the interview turned out to make her look bad did we all jump on the bandwagon blaming everyone but Diana.

This is a saccharine line more suitable for a greeting card than an interviews. I think it demonstrates how she needed help getting a grip on reality and not living in some sort of fairy tail she had in her head. Unfortunately, Britain was at a crossroads where either no one could understand her struggles OR they endorsed them. She needed a third option.

The real interview was a prime example for manipulation and playing the victim. I can't believe anyone fell for these ridiculous puppy eyes soaked in Kajal.
Tbf, her husband had done the same during his Dimbleby interview.
My thoughts exactly. Also Diana was no angel herself but ppl are quick to forget that bc she died.
She was a victim sadly. Victim of the system. And a victim of being married to someone who was secretly in love with somebody else.
@@bluehydrangea5506 Well said! Had Diana lived she would still be fighting over Charles and Camilla being crowned or rescuing Charles from his illness - she was such a victim AND a hero! LoL 😂😂.

@@JoanMorrison-vq2jc i also cant with the victim narrative.

Her dying turned her into a saint). The crown is also heavily biased and is not real life but ppl seem to think it is
What a narcissistic, needy actress Diana was.
she signed her death warrant with that interview.
Diana was whining/complaining all the time despite being an adult and having all the luxuries of life..if she had stopped worrying about the affairs her husband was having and focused on her role as princess of wales,it would have endured her to Charles automatically.. remember guys a man,no matter how many extra marital affairs he has, will always come back to a loyal, caring and respectful wife..
