Why do people think that diana was so great?

Question

This woman was a big tart, shows with the differing looks of children she had, two fathers or more? in the end she slept with any one who would have her. Why do people think she was so great?

Answer 1

Because she was s**y, ran rings around the royal family and the press and was in the press virtually every day.  She became someone a lot of people thought they knew.

I think your comments have a certain validity but they are a bit harsh!

Answer 2

I assume you are anti-royalist, did you know her personally, or through the media like everyone else with the exception of her immediate family and friends, your diatribe is offensive in the extreme, i would have loved to have known her, she was a breath of fresh air in a very staid and outdated monarchy. She had lots of faults but tell me the man or woman who doesn't, i suggest you sit back and evaluate your life and see what you have accomplished in it, if it comes close to her achievements then maybe you have something to be smug and vitriolic about.

Answer 3

I don't people think of her as being great but more as a person whom they cared for, like a daughter or sister?

Answer 4

I don't think she was as bad as all that, but you have to consider the British obsession with celebrity. Imagine America's obession with celebrity and then multiply it by about 100, and Diana was the ultimate celebrity, that's why she was so great, she was beautiful and famous, and royal.

Answer 5

She is thought of as great because of her caring nature and willingness to champion the poor and needy.

Answer 6

She wasn't fake like the rest of the royal family. She was a REAL person, who treated her kids like they were just normal children. What other princess would bring their sons to McDonalds?

I think she was a great person and did a lot of great things. You say she was a tart and her children looked different. Who cares? She was a great mother to those children.

Answer 7

Excellent question! She visited aids sufferers, so did the people who volunteered to stay there. She visited the poor, why? To rub it in that she wasn't? She had so so much money and nothing to do she chased married men in her spare time when she was not having her picture taken or somewhere on holidays. She did nothing more then anyone else, who actually stayed there and did not leave when the photographers did

Answer 8

I just gave you a star  !

Answer 9

i would like to know her myself, i remember she was constantly one tv all the time when she was alive, i use to get tired of seeing her face, and i never know why they are such a big deal, i guess its becuase of all the money they have

Answer 10

I liked her!!! 'cos she was different from the rest of the royal family....she wanted to break the rules....

she was great!!!!

Answer 11

Diana did this

1) shook up the monarchy and speeded up its modernization

2) tore down prejudices about AIDS

3) raised awareness about eating disorders

4) campaigned for the abolition of land mines in Angola

5) Destroyed the image of the "stiff upper lip"

6) embraced multicultralism by having a muslim boyfriend

7) Became a beacon of hope to those suffering

Thats why people admire her

Answer 12

I'm sure this question would be frowned upon, but I must be honest, I also can't see te big hype.

Well she wasn't that bad, but then again, she also wasn't that great...

Someone, please explain, give us some insight.
