After the death of Queen Elizabeth ll, people are remembering how Princess Diana of Wales died. Now, images of her tragic accident as well as conspiracy theories and questions about how she died are being shared, according to CNN en Español.

Twenty-five years have passed since the tragic death that shocked the entire world. It was in the early hours of August 31, 1997 that Diana died in a terrible car accident. She had serious internal injuries and died shortly after in the hospital.

WHAT HAPPENED THE MORNING DIANA PASSED AWAY?

Diana was with her boyfriend, the Egyptian film producer Dodi al Fayed, a bodyguard and their driver. They were traveling along the Seine river at a high rate of speed while photographers on motorcycles were chasing them. The car apparently lost control in a tunnel.

The paparazzi were trying to get photos of Lady Di with her boyfriend, so the driver sped up to escape them — at least that is the most widely accepted theory. However, there are several hypotheses that surround the death of the charismatic Lady Di, and they’ve resurfaced after the death of Queen Elizabeth.

HOW DID PRINCESS DIANA DIE?

The official version of the doctors states that Lady Di died for the following reasons: “An emergency surgery showed a serious injury to the left pulmonary vein. Despite closure of this wound and two-hour external and internal cardiac massage, no official respiratory circulation could be established and she died at 4 a.m. Paris time.

This explanation was given at the time by the doctor, Bruno Riou, an anesthesiologist at the Hospital de la Petie Salpetriere in Paris, who treated her as soon as she arrived. The police arrested seven photographers — six of French nationality and one of Macedonian nationality — and seized two motorcycles and a scooter from them, holding them in custody while the investigation was carried out.

WAS THERE A CONSPIRACY?

But the death of Lady Di and her boyfriend was soon questioned and the businessman’s family directly accused the royal family of a «conspiracy of the British secret services». Dodi’s family claimed that she was pregnant by the tycoon, while the royal family pointed out that the owner of Harrod’s department store was behind the accident.

However, the official version unanimously determined by both the French and British police was that there was no conspiracy. They found that Henri Paul, the driver of the Mercedes in which they were traveling, was driving drunk and lost control of the car. Filed Under: Queen Elizabeth Princess Diana

WAS DIANA PREGNANT?

The Metropolitan Police confirmed the final report of the French and British police, which that it was an accident due to the fact that the driver was drunk and they stressed that Lady Di was not pregnant. However, unlike the French results, the British did consider that the paparazzi were at fault in the accident.

Thus, Lord Stevens, who investigated the accident for the Metropolitan Police, after learning the results of the British coroner, said the following: “There have been a series of accusations that have been unfortunate. I just hope that this can bring closure to what has been a traumatic event for many people.» Filed Under: Queen Elizabeth Princess Diana
