Diana, Princess of Wales (Diana Frances Mountbatten-Windsor; née Spencer; 1 July 1961 – 31 August 1997) was the first wife of Charles, Prince of Wales, eldest son and heir apparent of Elizabeth II. Her two sons, Princes William and Harry, are second and third, respectively, in line to the thrones of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and 12 other Commonwealth Realms.

-Her ancestry backgroud is Scottish, Irish, and American. She is also related to the famous Royal Stuart Family.

-She married Prince Charles on July 29, 1981 in St. Paul's Cathedral.

-On her father's side, Diana was a direct descendant of Charles II through four illegitimate sons:

* Henry Fitzroy, 1st Duke of Grafton, son by Barbara Villiers
* Charles Beauclerk, son by Nell Gwyn
* James Crofts- Scott, 1st Duke of Monmouth, leader of a famous rebellion, son by Lucy Walter
* Charles Lennox, son by Louise de Kérouaille, 1st Duchess of Portsmouth

She was also a descendant of James II and VII through an illegitimate daughter, Arabella FitzJames. Arabella's mother was Arabella Churchill, the sister of John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough, and so she is a distant relative of Winston Churchill

Diana's other notable ancestors included Robert I (the Bruce) and Mary, Queen of Scots (an aspect of family history in which Diana expressed great interest); Mary Boleyn; Lady Catherine Grey; John Egerton, 2nd Earl of Bridgewater; and James Stanley, 7th Earl of Derby.

-Additionally, Diana's great-great-great-grandmother Eliza Kevorkian was a native of Mumbai, India and of Indian descent, though family lore identifies Kevorkian as of Armenian ancestry. ("Kevork" and "Kevorkian" are Armenian surnames, which translate into English as "George" and "Son of George.")

-In the mid-1980s, the marriage of Diana and Charles fell apart, an event at first suppressed but then sensationalised by the world media, drawing in Camilla Parker Bowles, who was confronted by Diana at a society party and was also, allegedly, on the receiving end of late-night telephone death threats orchestrated by the princess.

-Prince Charles and Princess Diana were seperated on December 9, 1992. The divorce was finalized on Augiust 28, 1996.

-In April 1987, the Princess of Wales was one of the first high-profile celebrities to be photographed touching a person infected with HIV. Her contribution to changing the public opinion of AIDS sufferers was summarised in December 2001 by Bill Clinton at the 'Diana, Princess of Wales Lecture on AIDS': In 1987, when so many still believed that AIDS could be contracted through casual contact, Princess Diana sat on the sickbed of a man with AIDS and held his hand. She showed the world that people with AIDS deserve no isolation, but compassion and kindness. It helped change world's opinion, and gave hope to people with AIDS.

-On 31 August 1997 Diana was killed in a high speed car accident in the Pont de l'Alma road tunnel in Paris along with Dodi Al-Fayed and their driver Henri Paul. Despite lengthy resuscitation attempts, including internal cardiac massage, she died at 4 a.m. local time. Her funeral on September 1997 was broadcast and watched by an estimated two and a half billion people worldwide.

You can find this out on your own. Google "Princess Diana" or "Diana, Princess of Wales" you will get lots and lots of hits.
Be careful to use reliable sites-not something like "Debbie's Princess Diana Tribute Site"

Also- try your local public library. There have been many, many books (biographies) written about Princess Diana in recent years. You should have more than enough information.

Did you ask this question yesterday as well?
