Women who change the world.
00:30
Safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.
00:36
Princess Diana
00:37
Born to an aristocratic British family with royal ancestry,
00:42
Princess Diana was the fourth of five children of Edward John Spencer, Viscount Althor,
00:48
and Frances Ruth Burke Roche, Viscountess Althor.
00:52
Diana was shy and introvert, but shared a fondness for music and dancing,
00:57
had a profound interest in community service.
01:00
After being homeschooled by her governess, Gertrude Allen,
01:03
she began her formal education at Salfield Private School in Gaten Norfolk,
01:08
before moving to an all-girls boarding school when she was nine.
01:12
In 1973, she joined her sisters at West Heath Girls School.
01:16
Soon after their July 1981 wedding,
01:19
Charles realized the shy 20-year-old's popularity was increasingly growing,
01:24
whether he liked it or not.
01:26
Diana quickly became one of the most photographed people in the world,
01:30
and her husband couldn't help but feel overshadowed.
01:34
She changed the face of the British monarchy.
01:37
Through her charity work, Diana highlighted how royalty,
01:41
which had previously been known for its stuffiness,
01:44
could be in touch with the public.
01:46
Like her AIDS efforts,
01:48
Diana traveled to countries with a high leprosy rate
01:51
in order to remove the stigma surrounding the disease.
01:55
She made regular personal visits to London's homeless centers.
01:59
Diana displayed a great affinity for young people
02:02
and became a champion for some of the most vulnerable.
02:06
As patron of the Royal Marsden Hospital,
02:09
known for treating childhood cancers,
02:11
and Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children,
02:14
she was often pictured comforting children
02:16
and made a personal connection with many.
02:20
Diana loved dance,
02:22
and after her divorce,
02:23
the English National Ballet
02:25
was the only non-humanitarian charity
02:28
she chose to dedicate her time to.
02:30
Her support and presence at fundraising galas
02:33
helped to raise thousands of pounds for the company.
02:36
In 1981,
02:38
people of the United Kingdom
02:39
rejoiced at the news that a royal wedding was on the horizon.
02:43
Their engagement became official on the 24th of February, 1981.
02:49
Prince Charles was 32,
02:51
and Princess Diana was 19 at the time of the engagement.
02:55
But Princess of Wales was enduring a lonely, miserable life
02:59
inside the palace,
03:01
despite being adored by the public.
03:03
The cracks began to appear very early in their marriage.
03:07
Diana just wanted to fit in with the royal family,
03:10
and she continued to hope things would get better with time.
03:14
However,
03:15
Diana found a sense of happiness in her marriage
03:17
with the birth of her two sons.
03:20
The couple welcomed Prince William in 1982,
03:24
followed by Prince Harry in 1984.
03:27
But after Harry was born,
03:29
the relationship soured
03:30
until they finally divorced in 1996.
03:34
Princess Diana was never short of male attention.
03:37
Her tumultuous relationship with Prince Charles
03:41
will go down in the history books.
03:43
But despite their divorce,
03:45
Diana had a lot of love for her husband.
03:47
It is not every other day that a people's princess is born.
03:51
Princess Diana was so much more than a style icon.
03:54
Princess Diana captured the world's attention
03:56
as a royal trendsetter.
03:58
But during her time in the public eye,
04:00
she also became a prominent philanthropic force.
04:03
Diana worked tirelessly
04:04
on behalf of charities around the world,
04:06
using her fame to raise awareness
04:08
of a number of important humanitarian issues.
04:10
Twenty years after her death,
04:12
here's why Diana will always be remembered
04:14
as the people's princess.
04:16
Princess Diana was passionate about helping others.
04:19
But royal commentators said motherhood
04:21
was clearly the job she loved the most.
04:23
She led by example,
04:25
and often took William and Harry
04:26
along with her on hospital visits.
04:28
Today,
04:29
the princes continue to support their mother's legacy
04:31
as patrons of some of the charities
04:33
she so prominently supported.
04:35
She may have left for the heavenly abode
04:37
earlier than anticipated,
04:39
but she continues to reign in the minds
04:41
and hearts of millions across the globe.
04:56
Women who change the world
04:58
were their own microphone.
05:01
For.

Marvel M troubles if you have grown friends
