The life of the late Princess Diana might have all the drama fit for a TV series, and because of that, her personal life and her son's as well were greatly affected. Same is true for a celebrity couple whose relationship was sensationalized, the fairy tale from when it started were all documented until every bit of the nightmare when they've divorced.
The marriage of Prince Charles and Princess Diana was already a bomb ready to explode ever since the affair of the Prince of Wales and then Camilla Parker Bowles before the wedding. Despite the early warning signs of an impending problem, the former royal couple continued with the wedding to avoid a scandal.
Given that the now Duchess of Cornwall was already married to her first husband, Andrew Parker Bowles, more personalities are involved, in addition to the rumors that the latter also had extramarital affairs. With that situation, there the affair of Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles deepened as it became entangled with his marriage with Princess Diana.
This is where tabloid news and reporters come, with a hidden camera stalking on their every move, hoping to get the drama and share it to the public. From there, the public became hungry for more information, and the paparazzi were uncontrollable, which has brought the end to Princess Diana's life.
But before that fateful night of August 31, 1997, Prince William, her eldest son was already exasperated with the public eyes on them, as they try to enjoy an outdoor trip with their mom but with cameras all over the area. And with that, the third in line to the throne told his mother to leave London for good.
Royal photographer Arthur Edward narrates in a 2007 documentary Diana: Last Days Of A Princess, how the Princess of Wales was almost in tears as she tells to him not to take pictures. Princess Diana had a quick chat with Edwards and asked him why there are cameras everywhere.
"Because you are here ma'am" Arthur Edwards replied, but the next statement made the photographer felt guilty when Princess Diana said, "William told me to leave England and go live somewhere else." From there, Edwards wanted to abort his mission, as he doesn't want to be "the reason why she's going to live in exile."
Since living an ordinary life after leaving her royal duties following her divorce, Princess Diana already had plans of relocating. According to a friend of the late Princess of Wales, Jemima Khan, Diana wanted to marry her previous boyfriend Pakistani actor Hasnat Khan and move away with him.
But the relationship ended abruptly and after she met the eldest son of former Harrods owner and billionaire Mohamed Al Fayed, Dodi Al Fayed. Princess Diana and her lover died in a car crash when their driver tried to ruin the paparazzi in Paris out.
