CHAPTER 12: Princess Alone

                Diana was now alone and she wanted a normal, private life, because she was the Princess of Wales. Diana’s sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, were the centre of her life. Diana was a very good mother. She wanted William and Harry to have a normal life and to have fun like other children. She did not want them to see only rich people like the Royal Family. She wanted them to meet people in the normal world too people with sad and difficult lives. She took William to The Passage Day Centre in London. The centre was a place for people who live on the streets. Later, Diana took Harry to the centre for homeless people too. Diana became interested in women’s problems and the newspapers were still very interested in Diana. At a dinner on the 3^rd of December 1993, at the Dorchester Hotel in London, she made a speech. She said the newspaper and television reporters made her life very difficult. She had no private life and needed more time alone.

           In March, James Hewitt gave an interview to a reporter from the Daily Express.  Hewitt published a book about his time with Diana. The book was called Princess in Love. The interview was on television on the 29^th of June 1994. He also talked about a relationship with another woman. People thought this woman was Camilla Parker Bowles. They were very shocked. Seven months later, Andrew and Camilla Parker Bowles divorced.
