- London, Thursday 23 June. It was finally happening. National Railway strikes were holding the country in its grasp. But the atmosphere in the city felt calm and serene. I chose to take the last part of my journey to the O2 arena by boat. I had done this 15 years ago with my mom, when we went to see Barbra Streisand perform at the former Millenium Dome.
On my way into London, I had passed Wembley Arena, Diana’s traditional London venue of many years. I saw her there once, in 2007.
Memories of previous shows came flooding back. The Ahoy in Rotterdam in 2004, the very first time I saw Diana in concert. Hamburg 2005, Wembley & Ahoy 2007, the two Symphonica in Rosso shows in The Netherlands in 2009.
Favourite songs and the excitement of hearing them on the radio, or playing them over and over again on my cassette player during my high school years back in the early 80s.
I love the reflective mood you get in when you know it’s about to happen again. Being in touch with friends who cannot be present, but who share the same love for Diana. Reuniting with fans at the venue, and recalling special moments during shows you saw together. Hearing the latest inside news ‘Her children and grandchildren are here, they’ll be sitting at that special row at the front.’
Getting to know your neighbours in the front row, who had never seen Diana perform before. But who grew up with her music. I loved every moment of this evening. Diana connects people, and she connects with her fans in the most heartwarming way.
This is a montage of moments I filmed on my way to, and during the show. I never did this before, knowing there would always be fans capturing moments I could enjoy later on. I wanted to be as present with Diana as I could. An evening to cherish forever. - Zábava

Love you Diana 💞
SHE DOESN'T NEED THESE MODERN EARPIECES.. THEY'RE SCREWING UP HER VOICE. TAKE IT EASY DIANA💯 LOVE YOU❤🌹SLOW DOWN A BIT.. TOO MANY SHOWS STRAIN YOUR VOICE BABY GIRL 🥰
She's screwing up her own voice by not getting ear training that will help her remain on-pitch.
She's openly stated that she doesn't warm up before shows or use any vocal techniques, which is why she usually sounds better towards the end of her shows.SMH...
Oh!! I was wondering what she was adjusting on her hip all the time. Tks!
Te amo Diana siempre tan hermosa!! ❤️ Dios te bendiga ❤️🙏
Diana, a fabulous entertainer ! Best in the business. I hope the Ross family will keep this going like the Presley family with Elvis Presley. Ms. Ross net worth is up there similar to Dolly Pardon at 1/2 billion. I bet the IRS is on her every year to get their share. However, these entertainers are very generous to nonprofits. I saw Ms. Ross in South Lake Tahoe in her Rolls Royce. I was amazed at her natural beauty. She is extremely attractive. She was not in costume just regular folks clothing. She was very charming and waived. She is very aware of her fans. Had a beautiful home on the lake in South Lake Tahoe.
BOOKED TOO MANY SHOWS ALL IN A ROW.. UK EVERY NIGHT. SLOW HER DOWN ROSS FAMILY! 💯

Why is she still using the same opening that she used during her 20210 tour?
Perhaps that's a question that fans in the US may be having, Stephan. But it didn't even enter my mind. To have Diana in our midst since her last visit 13 years ago to the Netherlands, and 15 years since she performed in the UK, was just pure joy and a blessing. Every moment, and I really mean every moment of that whole day in London, was just pure, pure joy and feeling grateful. We had the time of our lives! Diana looked fabulous. And to see her family with her. She was super-happy :-)
Is it true Diana suffered an injury? What's the story with that?
Six years ago, when she was traveling to a performance in Pennsylvania, her car was hit by another car who had ignored a stop sign. She had only mild head and neck pain, but recovered quickly.
