Princess diana or kate middleton who is a better princess?
Simply Diana. She was a strong minded woman, eager to break outdated rules for the things she believes is right and just. She was the very first royal to touch base and relate personally with the neglected people outside the royal world. Even before she married Charles at a very young age of 20, she was already working and caring for other kids. If not for her character, her sons would have never turned out into beautiful persons. Too bad she died early, leaving one of her sons very heartbroken, still searching for his mother's unconditional love. Despite her personal struggles, she was THE Real Princess. She was beyond beauty, fashion and decorum, and even by blood alone. She was exceptionally compassionate and used her privileged position to initiate her own causes to speak for the underprivileged who needed their own sense of justice. She simply helped the world wake up and be a much better place.

So Princess Diana and Prince Charles are related?
So I read up on their ancestory, they have a single relative. William Cavendish-Bentinck, 3rd Duke of Portland Even though it's a distant relative, it's not right!!
Was Princess Diana considered upper class before she married Prince Charles?

Diana was a member of the aristocracy,the titled gentry.She was LADY Diana Spencer,daughter of the 8th Earl Spencer.Her family is even considered to be more grand than the Windsors,the Spencers being one of the most aristocratic in England.The Spencer bloodline includes two kings,a Duke and a saint.Her ancestry even linked her as an eleventh cousin to Charles.
Do you believe Princess Diana brought the British monarchy to the brink of collapse?
I don't think she came anywhere near bringing the monarachy to the "brink of collapse". I do think that she was a cause of embarrassment to the monarchy. I think the teeny-bopper 'worship' of her was ridiculous. I think that people have given the Palace no credit whatsoever for the role they played in Diana's 'charities'. It doesn't take much brilliance to know that all her appearances were organized, paid for, and backed by the Palace, not her personally. I think she acted like a spoiled brat. Sulking like a spoiled 14 year old when she was well into her 20s with two children to rear. Bestowing this arrogant clothes horse with saintlike qualities, indicates some real stupidity to me. AND to repeat for the record: her death would have been avoided had she or her idiot playboy lover told the driver to slow down; so what if the newsmen looked in the windows? Mercedes can have curtain, you know?? Or if either of those arrogant, spoiled rich people had obeyed the law and common sense and put on their seat beats, they'd probably be swilling champagne and lounging on a yatch somewhere as we read this. I do not think the monarchy is near the brink of collapse now, either. William is liked. The UK is a democracy of sorts, and the monarchy COULD be voted out if the people wished it, and it would have been a long time ago. The fact is, the people of the UK seem to want the Royals, and there are just a loud, whiny minority talking it down. Just an opinion from an American. Long Live the Queen.
