What a Woman. She’s sad when speaking about her relationship, but she also seems to still be basking in the love and life they shared. There’s so much happiness/contentment in her story.

I believe in The Resurrection. Jiji will get to meet her Prince William at The Lord's 2nd coming. Choose agape love. Human love is a yo-yo & temporary. Agape is everlasting. Amen.
This was such a beautiful love story. I think we all had that one .
How sad for Him, His family And for her as well
This was truly a beautiful but tragic love story.
This was excellent very well done, very tragic story indeed.🇨🇦
His mother was the most sad Princess Alice duchess of Gloucester
What an elegant woman. Such a sad story.
I always found this story so sad. True love story
I think its a beautiful love story! Lived it fulley! Short lived! But she speaks of there story with such fondness!! And love!! Practical, loving,unselfish woman! Just beautiful!!
Diana's ex lover Hewitt never married either. He now has health conditions.
The original Prince William, who died in 1972.
Why did he intentionally crash his plane? The disease was already taking hold? He didn't want to face a life without the woman he loved? He couldn't face leaving the family for love because of his uncle? Such a beautiful young couple and such a tragic end to the fairytale.
I saw her real story told by her,very sad.
Not enuff commercials.
Playboy Prince William looks like the current Prince William if you saw the two of them in a picture not together but side by side you would say are they brothers or father and son cuz they look so much alike

I don't think they look alike because Prince William, since losing his hair, looks more like Prince Philip.

IMO, William favors his mom more, now Harry could be Phillip's twin! William favors his dad a little as he ages as well. Zusu died in 2022 I believe. .

Inbreeding. They all look alike.
Hiw very sad
After watching this episode of The Royal Family my interpretation of the accident it was suicide if he couldn't have the woman he loved on his side he didn't want to be alive he looked down and looked depressed you didn't want to do what the royal family wanted him to do and that leads to my interpretation he killed himself

@@shielasmart1141 I don't understand why the Royals are any Royals would use the word divorce she's a divorcee every time you say the word he's a divorce a in this day and age who cares Love Is Love no matter who it's between a man or a woman or man and a man or a lady and Lady it doesn't matter love is love and the royal family should be just like that I know duties come first but how can you do the best of your duties if you ain't got the love of your life by your side I mean come on Queen Elizabeth allowed her son to marry that other woman that ruined the marriage between Princess Diana and Charles I have no respect for him whatsoever none when William comes King I will pay more attention to the royal family until then no way I love watching the royal family but I don't like Charles at all

That's bs
No two Princes William are the same. Even their finger prints. One was " forbidden" love, as she was a divorcee & this is currently The Promise One, with Fear of God in them. Keep praying, keep trusting. Amen

He was taken out....My opinion....Charles was jealous of him also
He was so handsome. I think he chose the royal life and not to lose his title and had to let her go slowly. He sent her back two years before he died. She seems so sad and never moved on. She does look a lot older than him.
It must still be difficult for her to watch that video of the plane crash. 😢 Don’t both the Williams look alike?
He was a handsome lad-such a sad end.
Very sad yet amazingly beautiful and classy love story.
