Diana was born July first 1961. Princess Diana got married to Prince Charles, the son of Queen Elizabeth, they were married for 18 years. While married, Diana bore the titles Princess of Wales, Duchess of Cornwall, Duchess of Rothesay and Countess of Chester. Diana remained the object of worldwide media study during and after her marriage, which ended in divorce on 28 August 1996. Media attention and public grief was very large after her death in a car crash in Paris on 31 August 1997, her funeral was televised. Princess Diana loved to help others around the world she did a lot of charity work. Diana grew up in Park House which is on the Queen's Sandringham Estate,n 1968, Diana was sent to Riddlesworth Hall School, an all-girls boarding school. While she was young, she attended a local public school. She did not shine academically, and was moved to West Heath Girls School she was later reorganised to The New School at West Heath in Sevenoaks, Kent, where she was regarded as a poor student, having attempted and failed all of her O-levels twice. However, she showed a particular talent for music as an accomplished pianist. Her outstanding community spirit was recognised with an award from West Heath In 1977, she left West Heath and briefly attended Institut Alpin Videmanette, a finishing school in Rougemont, Switzerland. At about that time, she was united with her future husband, who was in a romantic relationship with her older sister, Sarah. Diana also excelled in swimming and diving, and longed to be a professional ballerina with the Royal Ballet. She studied ballet and tap dance throughout her childhood and teenage years, but felt she grew too tall for the profession. After leaving Institut Alpin Videmanette she moved to London. She began working with children, eventually becoming a nursery assistant at the Young England School. In 1975 she became Lady Diana Spencer after her father inherited the title of Earl Spencer. Her wedding to the Prince of Wales was on 29 of July 1981. It was held at St Pauls Cathedral and it reached a world wide viewing that was more than 750 million people. Throughout Diana's life she was classified as a rebel.  Her work with victims of AIDS could in some ways be seen in this regard. She was one of the first very high profile people to be pictured touching those afflicted with AIDS this had a significant impact in changing people’s opinions and attitudes to the disease it was certainly a charity not following the protocol and tradition of the Royal family. As Princess of Wales, Diana undertook royal duties on behalf of the Queen and represented her at functions overseas. She was celebrated for her charity work and for her support of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines. From 1989, she was president of London's Great Ormond Street Hospital for children, in addition to dozens of other charities. In my opinion Diana was a life saver with all the charity work that she did, to me I really like it how she put others before her and never gave up.
