As I have said before the official Inquiry into the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, is a total farce and now it is descending into the depths of mediocrity. I certainly hope that the bill for this piece of Al Fayed indulgence is being sent to Harrod’s and not the British taxpayer. Because it is Mr Al Fayed Snr who demanded this disgusting public airing of Diana’s most intimate details and the most private moments of her personal life. Are we hearing about Dodi’s private life prior to meeting Diana? No! It appears that all this inquest is doing is filling in the gaps that the newspapers failed to fill during those last years, months and weeks of her tragically short life.

Now the inquest is preparing to hear a statement from the man that Diana herself claimed to be ‘the love of her life’, Dr Hasnat Khan. I cannot see this man telling us what we already knew; that Diana was madly in love with him but it just was not to be. He was from one culture, Diana was from another. Dodi was from the same culture that Dr Khan is from…if it could not work with the man she claimed to have loved more than anyone else, how on earth could it have worked with the fly-by-night Dodi Al Fayed? A man Diana never ever claimed to have loved at all. She was very careful with her words this woman. She loved Hasnat Khan, we all know that…she never claimed to love Dodi, to anyone.

When this is all said and done we will all know just what happened that night; Diana placed her safety in the hand so the inexperienced Al Fayed firm. Diana and Dodi rode in a car driven at dangerously high speeds without wearing their seatbelts. Bad decisions, bad judgement, bad associations caused her death. Nothing else.

Diana chose the wrong people to look after her safety in August 1997. Simple as that.
