Answer 2

Princess Diana was admired because she wasn't completely stuck up like the other royals. She wanted to remain down-to-earth sort of thing. She did a lot of charity work, in africa, asia, all over the world.
She worked with Mother teresa
She was respected because of her nice and charitable work

Answer 3

Many royals have done charity work for a long time, Diana was not the first. However she was less aloof and more approachable than the rest and earned an affection which no other royal has had.

Answer 4

She worked with a lot of charities. She traveled to countries to visit with landmine victims and also went to hospitals in England to visit people with AIDS. She did a bunch of great things, but I think the reason she is remembered most is because of her huge heart and willingness to do things no other Royal had done before.

Answer 5

I think it was all the little things she did rather than any one large action. People just liked her, and felt that the world was a better place for her being there.

Answer 8

she was really nice and did alot of charity stuff.she visited the sick and she was the first famous person to touch someone with HIV.That was really sad when she died, it was like the death was all planed out over jealousy.

Answer 9

When Diana became engaged to Charles, she was only 19, and no one knew who she was - she was not a socialite. She worked as a kindergarten teacher, and she was very shy in front of a camera. She was much younger than Charles, and seemed very naive.

Her marriage to Charles, we now know, was a nightmare almost from the beginning. Diana was desperately unhappy and lonely for many years, and it's probably accurate to say that Charles was fairly mentally abusive to her. We all watched as she just crumbled under the pressure of media invasion and constant public criticism.

She had two children, and things changed. She got a little stronger. I remember that she refused to let nannys raise her kids all the time - she wasn't afraid to get her own hands dirty, and she wasn't afraid to change 'tradition' in the way she wanted her kids brought up, for instance enrolling them in schools rather than hiring tutors, etc. She wanted them to be as ordinary as possible.

Diana was the first royal to actually take people's hands and touch them and hug them. Before that it was tradition that a 'commoner' didn't touch a royal. She was very concerned for the plight of various groups of people, and didn't only use her position to talk about it and raise money, but she went out herself and visited. For example she visited AIDS patients who were dying in hospitals, when it wasn't acceptable at all. She visited places in Africa where people were at war and starving. She visited places where land mines were always blowing up and maiming people - and she was deeply involved in changing that when she died.

Diana was someone who was unknown and afraid of the public eye, and she grew up before our eyes, took control of her life, tried to bring some good to the world through her position, and changed many people's lives. She was a true humanitarian and grew into a strong woman.

When she died, she was newly divorced from Charles, and finally free of the nightmare her married life had been. She was beginning to blossom, getting stronger as a person, using her fame to bring help to people and good to the world. It was devastating to many when she was killed because there was so much potential in her life, that was lost. She would have gone on to do great things and help the world, and she never got the chance. (She was 36 when she died.)

At her funeral, her sons carried on her teaching of touching people, by shaking hands with the thousands who came to Buckingham Palace to bring flowers and cards. They were polite and dignified, and amazing. People knew it was because of what their mother had taught them.

The funeral was so . . . . sad and so huge. I never saw such crowds, so many many flowers laid at the gates of the palace. People lined the streets for miles, crying. People in the U.S. dropped everything and spent all their savings, and got on a plane for England, by the hundreds, just to stand on the street and say they were there when her coffin passed by. As the hearse and the following cars, carried her body the miles between London and her burial place, people lined the roads and threw flowers on the hearse - so many that the driver could hardly see to drive.

If you can get hold of a video tape of the funeral - watch it. You'll understand. I am willing to bet that I will never in my lifetime see a public outpouring of grief as great as that one.

Diana was a very very humble person, who thought of herself as stupid and awkward and ugly. She never thought herself better than the people of England, just because she was royal. That's why she is known as "The People's Princess". She belonged to the common people.

Diana was a very good mother, in a very difficult situation. When the circumstances of her life and marriage would have driven many people to madness, or seclusion, or bitterness, she chose to hold her head up and find ways to make her life happy and meaningful, in spite of everything. And that was in doing all she could for other people.

People loved, and remember and miss Diana, because she represented for many of us, what someone can do when their life is unhappy, if they just keep going - they can make something great of their life. She also set an example in her charm and conduct, and the way she treated the least important people around her.

I was born the same year as Diana. She would have always been the same age I am. I still remember how physically sick I felt the day she died. So many of us felt that the world had lost something huge. A lot of goodness and hope died with her. Even now, 9 years later, I can't help crying as I write this and remember her.

She was one of the humble people in the world, who never knew how great she was, and she had one of the biggest hearts the world has known in a person of royalty. Because of the common people's love for her, and her attitude toward them - breaking with tradition in which royals kept apart from commoners - she by the example she set changed forever the way the royal family behaves.

Answer 10

I've been trying to figure that one out, myself.

The best answer I can give is that she was attractive, she produced an heir and a spare, and, best of all, she was squarely average in every way.

This made her easy for average people to admire.

Just my opinion.
