I am sitting here at 10.23pm remembering where I was 10 years ago. In the UK.
I had just woken at 03.15am for no reason - or so I thought. I slept with the radio on and heard some one say Princess Diana had been in an accident. I was immediately awake. My husband fast asleep beside me. I listened to the radio intently, desperately wanting to turn it up but not wanting to wake him. As the minutes ticked by I had all sorts of images in my mind. The radio said she had broken her leg. I remember thinking ' her long legs. Hope it's not a fractured femur. It will leave her with a limp. I also remember laying in bed thinking there is something more. The truth is not being told. She is dead.' I remember turning the bedroom tv on and seeing a news broadcast announcing that the Diana Princess of Wales was dead. This woke my husband . I never went back to sleep that day.
I still mourn her lose. People can say what they like but for me she is an icon. A woman who allowed her emotions to show. Who loved her children desperately and who I believe would have been totally faithful to her husband if he had not been the adulterer he was.
