The late Princess Diana was hugely beloved among her royal followers and the general public because of her kind soul. The Princess ultimately becomes the People’s princess because of her charisma and empathy towards anyone. In commemoration of Princess Diana’s 27th death anniversary, these are the top 5 most memorable moments of her life.
- The Princess breaks down the stigma around AIDS: In April 1987, Princess Diana broke down the stigma around AIDS taking an important step at a time when so many patients with the illness were mistreated and were treated with prejudice rather than help. Diana shook hands with AIDS patients, making a radical move and opening the first purpose-built HIV/Aids unit in the UK.
-  She walked across a minefield: In 1997, as part of her promotional work for the charity Halo which was fighting against the legal use of landmines, Diana was photographed walking through an active landmine field wearing protective body armor. Princess Diana’s work was indispensable to start a global clearance of mines, particularly in Huambo where the photo was taken.
- Prince Harry’s Sports Day: Probably one of the most known photos of the British Monarchy, Princess Diana never shied away from opportunities to create a strong bond with her sons, Prince William and Prince Harry. Running against five other mums in a parent’s race at a sports day event proved how much he loved her children.                                                                                                      Â
- Auction for charity: Princess Diana auctioned off 79 of her most iconic dresses in the summer of 1997. The money raised was spread between several charities, this is one of the most beautiful actions from a royal member to help those in need.
- Being the first royal member to work a paid job: Princess Diana broke all the boundaries after she became the first woman to marry into the Royal Family while she was working a paid job. She became a nursery teacher’s assistant when she got engaged to the now-King Charles III.
