overwhelmed at just the intense interest in her. at sydney opera house, the drive through the city brought the people out in the tens of thousands to catch a glimpse of this woman the world had made so much fuss about. they went through the crowds. i took the frafrks and someone threw a small posey of flowers. it flicked on to diana s face, and she got afraid initially, but then she started to weep. i thought it was so appalling. i hadn t actually done anything, like climb everest or done something wonderful like that. there was a kind of a sense of an imposter syndrome that she really didn t deserve this. in such a short time she went from being a nursery teacher to marrying the heir to the throne to stepping into this global spotlight with everybody watching her every move. i can t fathom the pressure that she felt. we all know how it ends, but
visited by any american president and few major political leaders. at the time even our own government hadn t dealt with the aids crisis. they couldn t get a grip on it. she really gave it the attention it merited. she chose to come to a small community hospital in the middle of a minority area during a crack epidemic. i can t say enough about the courage that takes. i thought it was amazing that she would come to my neighborhood and actually say let me see your struggle and let me lend some assistance to it. diana had proved her range she cob the up town princess but then also dive really deep into the social topics of the time and accomplish real good in the world. the press turned on a dime. suddenly she was as one headline said, divine.

joy of welcome seen in the eyes of a child. she knew what to say to people. when the princess stopped to ask mr. walter mills if he was cold, he was so overcome he burst into tears. she kissed children. this was not what we d seen on a royal tour before. when you think the royal family, they re looking down on you, diana didn t do that. she broke that mold and did something extraordinary. she got down on the same level as the rest of us. she met us eye to eye. she opened up her arms and took us in. never been done before. she got the recognition within that environment of being good at things. she thrived on that. problem so lve together, and find the answer that was right under their nose.
diana was clearly going downhill. it was a worry. carolyn, one of her flatmates, rang up and said that she was concerned about how diana was. and so we thought it might be a good thing for a group of us to sort of team up and, as it were, support her again. we had a couple of lunches, and she seemed to enjoy those, and that was the start, really, of a rebuild. hundreds of people greeted the prince and lady diana as they walked through the town. what diana had going for her was charisma and presence, people skills and soft power. could she handle this? it didn t take long to find out. and it made the picture of the day. she was an absolute natural.
