The popularity of the Princess of Wales has been phenomenal. She has grown before our very eyes from a world of babies and bubble-gum into a world of princes and palaces: matured from a shy, unqualified teenager who blushed and giggled into a gracious Princess, who has just the right comment for everyone she meets. She has become a 'royal,' she has been manicured by fashion experts, made up by beauticians and dressed by couturiers. But none of this explains why thousands of people will crush together on the roadside to catch a fleeting glimpse of her.
What is it that makes the Princess of Wales so special? Who is the person behind the blushes, the smiles, and the occasional flashes of will? And how is she going to fit into the mould that goes with the title?
In this detailed study of Diana - her background, childhood, education, transition to princess, and her life as a member of the Royal Family and mother of the future heir to the Throne - through the eyes of those that have known her best, Penny Junor reaches the conclusion that the Palace might as well throw away the old mould. Diana will do it her way. Vissza
