Camilla TomineyHOST
Uh, the two men have never really got on.
Camilla TomineyHOST
Quite a few people have been citing the whole, "Well, uh, didn't Diana fall out with her brother towards the end, and did he or didn't he give her accommodation at Althorp, and wasn't that why she ended up in the arms of Dodi Al-Fayed in Paris," and all the rest of it.
Camilla TomineyHOST
Actually, Earl Spencer addresses that in the book.
Camilla TomineyHOST
Uh, she wasn't on good terms with her brother at that time, but she wasn't on good terms with lots of people-
LoriHOST
I really...
LoriHOST
I don't think that Diana was in love with that Dodi Al-Fayed guy.
LoriHOST
I think that he was just...
LoriHOST
Because
LoriHOST
No closed captions needed for you, Missy.
JuliaHOST
No.
JuliaHOST
And the other thing, though, about this book is how Princess Diana even met Dodi Al-Fayed.
JuliaHOST
And this was interesting.
Charles SpencerGUEST
And it got worse, you know.
Charles SpencerGUEST
Then I- the, the news came that Henri Paul, the driver, and Dodi Fayed, her boyfriend, had been killed instantly, and so that wasn't a minor prang.
Charles SpencerGUEST
And then I heard that she'd had a blow to the head, and it was getting worse and worse.
Charles SpencerGUEST
And then there was a sort of escalation through the night, and then suddenly, um, I heard Robert, my brother-in-law, in the background go, "Oh, no." And then Jane said, "She's died." And it was sort of awful.
Harriet RoseHOST
He's got more than one son.
Harriet RoseHOST
So Dodi Al-Fayed, who actually...
Harriet RoseHOST
I don't know loads about him, except for him being the father of Dodi Al-Fayed and honestly got bad vibes from him.
Harriet RoseHOST
Even in the fake crown show, I got bad vibes from that.
Harriet RoseHOST
He was a bit of a, what
Katie Schuele ScanlanHOST
Oh.
Carol Grief SchueleHOST
Dodi Fayed.
Katie Schuele ScanlanHOST
Yeah, Dodi.
Katie Schuele ScanlanHOST
Yeah, no, he wasn't
Mike SmithGUEST
But we used to get all kinds of interesting people to come in.
Mike SmithGUEST
You'd get the Pythons or Dodi Fayed had come in with Marie Halvin and...
Mike SmithGUEST
Terry Hall, David Bowie came in one night.
Mike SmithGUEST
You got all interesting people coming in for screenings.
Adam McQueenPANELIST
This might have been at the back of Charles Spencer's mind when he was thinking about it.
Adam McQueenPANELIST
An incident just a few weeks before Princess Diana was tragically killed, when Piers Morgan faked a front-page photo of her with then-boyfriend Dodi Fayed, in which he, and he's happily admitted to this and wrote about it in his own book, flipped Dodi's head so it looked as if the two were going in for a kiss, when in fact Dodi was looking in completely the opposite direction.
Adam McQueenPANELIST
He did this specifically to spite his colleague on the Sunday Mirror, Bridget Rowe, who had outbid him for the actual photos of the two of them kissing, which obviously were quite a sensation at that point.
Adam McQueenPANELIST
And he wanted to get a spoiler out, as they're known in the tabloid trade, on the Saturday so as to annoy the Sunday Mirror and reduce their sales.
Maureen CallahanHOST
But the other thing about that, aside from Henri Paul being drunk, and you're so right about her tipping off the paparazzi, The other part of this story that has been lost to history, underreported, is that Diana also tipped off the paparazzi for those photos of her kissing Dodi Al-Fayed on that boat because she was trying to make Hasnat Khan, the Pakistani heart surgeon who she had fallen deeply in love with and who had broken up with her because he could not deal—this was the official reason— with her insane level of fame.
Maureen CallahanHOST
She was trying to make him jealous with Dodi Fayed.
Maureen CallahanHOST
So she was architecting all of this.
Maureen CallahanHOST
I'm not blaming her for her own death.
Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
1997.
Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
Just before a warm August midnight, Princess Diana left the Ritz Hotel in Paris with Dodi Al-Fayed.
Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
They headed across the city in a Mercedes, paparazzi following close behind.
Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
Then, Diana's car disappeared inside a tunnel, and it did not come out.
Sloane BellaGUEST
Okay, back, back in the day, I don't know if you heard this, but I don't know where I heard it from, but back, back when Princess Diana was gonna marry Charles, they had the queen mom, the, uh, Queen Elizabeth, whoever Queen Elizabeth's husband was, and her, and Diana's father.
Sloane BellaGUEST
They also had Dodi Al, Al Fayed's father.
Sloane BellaGUEST
This is 19-year-old Diana getting ready to marry Prince Charl- Charles.
Sloane BellaGUEST
Dodi Al Fayed, so Mohamed Al Fayed, his father is get- is in this circle when they are testing Diana's virginity at the time.
Sloane BellaGUEST
So there was a deal bartered at that time, and it was bartered for her to actually have an heir to the Muslim world, okay? So as soon as she got pregnant, they reneged on their deal, 'cause she was pregnant with his kid, Dodi.
