The heir to the British throne, Prince Charles came to Paris on Sunday to collect the body of his former wife, Diana, Princess of Wales.
Together with Diana's two sisters, a sombre-looking Prince Charles arrived at the hospital where Princess Diana died in the early hours of Sunday morning.
They were greeted by French President Jacques Chirac and his wife, Bernadette.
The grim-faced prince then escorted the flag-draped coffin back to a Royal Air Force base outside London, just 16 hours after Princess Diana was tragically killed in a Paris car crash. The Prince later travelled to Balmoral to be with his children.
Prince Charles flew to Paris on Sunday to collect the body of his former wife Princess Diana who was killed in a car crash in the early hours of Sunday morning. He was greeted warmly by the French President Jacques Chirac and his wife, Bernadette.
The funeral cortege passed along the streets of Paris, lined with well wishers. Prince Charles and Diana's two sisters, Lady Jane Fellowes and Lady Sarah McCorquodale, escorted the coffin back to England.
Prominent public figures, including Prime Minister Tony Blair, were at the Royal Air Force air base at Northolt for a sombre ceremony marking the nation's tragic loss.
Diana died from injuries suffered when her Mercedes limousine, pursued by paparazzi photographers, crashed in a Paris traffic tunnel.
The accident also claimed the lives of the 36-year-old princess's boyfriend, millionaire film producer Dodi Fayed, and their chauffeur.
The couple's bodyguard survived the crash. He is in hospital and doctors say his injuries are serious, but not life-threatening.
Seven photographers were detained immediately after the crash, which occurred in a tunnel at the Pont de l'Alma, just north of the Eiffel Tower.
They were placed in formal custody on Sunday afternoon.
The accident investigation will be handled by a special unit more used to dealing with high priority terrorism cases.
After the jet bearing Princess Diana's body landed under grey skies at the Northolt air base, a Royal Air Force honor guard carried the coffin, draped in the multicoloured Royal Standard, to a waiting hearse.
Following the ceremony by members of the Queen's Colour Squadron at the airforce base, Princess Diana's grieving sisters accompanied her coffin back to London and to a private mortuary. Her body was subsequently moved to the chapel in St James's Palace.
Prince Charles reboarded the plane following the ceremony and flew on to Aberdeen. He then drove to the family home at Balmoral, to comfort his two grieving sons, Prince William and Prince Harry.

No one ever acknowledges the raw grief and the bravery of Diana’s two sisters. I imagine the hardest task of their lives to go and view their younger sister’s body and bring her back home.
Despite their stressed relationship , I'm vary glad the " Prince of Wales " went to Paris France to bring his former wife home . It was the right thing to do !
He formally identified her together with her sisters ! A very hard thing for the three of them to do !
Absolutely! As The Prince of Wales and future King of England, it was very much the right thing to do on this stressful, sad day. Diana, Princess of Wales was the mother of a future King, and should be taken home in this manner. What else could he have done? This situation was absolutely unprecedented, and he had to act quickly, knowing he would be damned if he did and damned if he didn’t.
At first, Queen Elizabeth II didn't want anybody from the Royal Family to pick up Diana's body, because technically, she was no longer a Royal. Prince Charles argued with his mother with such conviction she finally allowed him to go. Apparently the Queen forgot that Diana was the mother of the princes William and Harry, and the mother of a future king.
@@rabyhook If you watch the Queen with Helen Mirren, they portray it as him wanting to do all the right things by the Princess but needing his mother the queen, to okay things like use of the royal jet, the coat of arms flag for the coffin, etc.
Diana's sisters are adorable, never seeking the limelight and never behaving as though they want to be celebrities. I love them and also King Charles IIi with his lovely Queen Camilla. @@shanjones4869
Even After so many years from her death, humanity still misses her so much ! RIP our beloved princess ! No one can replace the kindness and love that you had in your life. You were a real star ⭐️ , a princess who belonged to ppl through out the world!

I still go to her for guidance in many ways. I still love her. I feel the ' accident' was planned. The Queen had a bright lite from Fiat , motorcycle, blinding Henri Paul.
AMEN
Elle manque à l humanité?? Dans quels domaines je ne vois pas
@@tiawandagolden769, Diana herself predicted, "my husband is planning to have me killed in a car accident".
She knew him only too well. She also predicted he won't be King.
25 years ago... Rest in peace, Diana. 💐
I'm crying. What an incredible woman we will never forget her.
The Princess Diana will always remain in my heart My princess And Princess of the World
If there's ONE thing I can't ABIDE, it's
Hypocrisy.
Charles who never loved Diana ONE little bit during her life, there in Paris looking as if he was overcome with grief and would never be happy again.
I can understand Diana's two sisters grieving and shocked, but Charles? NEVER in a month of Sundays. Now he's all dear darling Diana, now she's gone. I cannot feel an ounce of sympathy for him. I really can't.
♥️🌹
@@lizb853 it was his guilt for treating her so badly for that Rottweiler
@@shellymahabir3623
Most likely that WAS it. But THEN it's not called crocodile tears for nothing.
You know it’s a serious loss when the guards bearing your casket get emotional.
Everyone says bad things about the way charles treated diana but here i just see a father doing the right thing by the mother of his children no matter what 😢
Very sad to see her sisters in so much pain outside the hospital, but it was Prince Charles the one who was receiving the condoleances while they were fighting back tears. So unfair, everything in Diana’s life was so unfair.
Bet they were pissed off that Charles was there at all. He wasn’t Diana’s husband anymore. If he was she’d still be alive.
Just when she was over Jug head, Charles, and a , happy at last in life, and it was taken away. I feel certain the Queen gave the command to, let her die in the tunnel. 2 hrs.... inside the tunnel medical van. Repaired Diana's torn aorta, but, too late, of course. Queen Elizabeth hated the Fayeds. who are as rich as her...
Almost as wealthy as the Queen.
He went for the boys, she was still their mother. Heartbreaking moments of a life taken far to soon xx
It makes me sick too. He's absolutely despicable. I won't watch his coronation.
One of the most shattering days of my life. I will never forget where I was when I heard the news. Love you forever my Princess
The utmost respect for Prince Charles here. That must have been an awful, awful day. As a father you'd only want to hide away with your sons. Yet he did the right thing with dignity.
Diana has always, and will always be, so very much loved by the world. She was a bright light, extinguished way too soon, and we will always miss her.
exactly.She stole millions of hearts...
The only way I can keep from crying , is this just pisses me off so bad! Ppl offering condolences too Charles ! That is just not right !

I bet they weren't too happy either they just kept face
I'm sure their hearts felt different. ⚘

its now 2020 but still princess diane never lost in my mind.
Factssaas
Werr you even born and aware of her when she was alive 🤣
@@trishabidesi8604 🤣🤣
Just same ... 🙏
From Uganda but still mourns a beautiful soul that I know in the story...I mourn her like my very own😭😭😭
My sister was having her engagement party the day after she died. It was cancelled as a form of respect. What a horrible day.
It’s 2022 and every time I watch this, I cry. So very sad.
She was meant to go in the end she was a scandal for the royal family special for her two sons and William future king
She was forget to maintain bit of decor , to make Charlie jealous she appear in every magazine and news paper kiss with her man friend not good she wasn’t a private person she was belong to the public had no privacy after all she was the mother of the future king
Me too... I was balling the night the news broke..i will never forget her! So wish she was still alive
What a shocking day this was..I still remember what I was doing.. Rest In Peace beautiful Diana...
Diana was and always will be the peoples queen..no one will ever take her place
Mummy remembers every minute of this and she had just turned 18. What a horrible way for Mummy to celebrate her 18th birthday like this. She’s nearly 43 now
Same here.
Hope wherever she is,she happy and peaceful
@@davewaters9203 Camilla took her place many years ago.
It’s devastating to see her casket being carried knowing Princess Diana isn’t on this earth anymore. The amazing energy she emulated is gone. You can just feel the shift. How life can be taken just like that. One minute she’s standing, walking, talking, smiling. & the next she isn’t. My heart is broken for those closest who lost her. She changed the world.🤎
Well, she never changed my world. Time for you to get a life.
She is at rest now,she was such a beautiful soul and I know that she's in a better place 💕💕💕
Quel jour horrible pour les deux enfants de Diana, William et Harry, des moments douloureux, triste 🌹❤⭐👍repose en paix Diana
You'll be remembered forever a queen in our hearts..🙏🏽 rest in peace🕊💐💞
Losing a mother in a younger age is very painful..I lost my mother at the age of 6years. My dad married again and I lost my step mom in 2019.. It's so painful to lose a mother..May the soul of the princess continue to rest in eternal peace of Jesus Christ..her spirit may watch her kids all the way..🙏🙏🇿🇦🇿🇦
Sending love to you. Rest in peace to your Mon and Step Mom xxx
Wow, that brought up a few tears from me. I don't know you deal with losing a mother and stepmother. I pray your heart is holding up...
Princess Diana was a darling to all people regardless of the religion. Till today I feel emotional by looking at her picks. She was a pleasant personality. As a Muslim I for pray her that May Allah swt grant her jannahtul FERDOUS. Ameen.
I lost both of my parents at age of 4 and 5 respectively
😢❤🙏🏼
PC...you did an honourable and loving thing bringing her home
Yeah he did the honourable thing for once.and that was only to make himself look decent to the public after the way he treated her.
He never loved her from the start. He married out of duty.
Yes but doesn’t absolve him from his mistakes and that horse Cam
Oh please.
This was A ROYAL FACADE!
It was certainly out of duty and tradition, but very unlikely that there was any love involved in it anywhere.
he could have honored his marriage vows to her first
Diano,nikt Ciebie nie zastąpi,spoczywaj w spokoju!!!
I was 9 years ago at the time of Diana's death and I can remember on the day of her funeral how quit my household and community was. Time stood still as we watched her funeral procession.
The whole world cried on this day. That was the first time ever. She was the people's princess.
And you know this how?
JFK also was a huge shock, but nothing compared to Diana.
He just want the epitome on him!
The murder of JFK was much more heartbreaking than diana's accident @@caroltapia1343
NOBODY CAN REPLACE DIANA❤🌹🌹🌹
Umm looks like camilla already did.
Cowmila
Horse face is trying but Diana is always in the people's minds.
@@erixonsaruksuk6649 THAT STATEMENT SHOWS WHAT KIND OF PERSON YOU ARE A DISGRACE
Camilla replaced her already before her death... Unfortunately
I was actually on holiday in Paris the day it happened, listening to, " La Princesse est morte!!". Still unbelievable to this day.
Button for
Vous resterez toujours dans nos cœurs 💕 Lady Diana
Every time I see an article about this beautiful lady I have to click on it…he destroyed her..I could never understand why..many times I wish she had called it off but she had prince William to carry on her legacy..and he is doing a wonderful job..and I’m not even British I’m an American…God bless william and the beautiful family he has made with the amazing Kate..
The fact that you're American makes your comment and opinion irrelevant.
Encore aujourd'hui vendredi 3 novembre 2023 jai des larmes a revoir la vidéo du retour du corps de la princesse Diana ca reste un souvenir douloureux ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I can never get enough of watching the princess come home for the last time...🙏
wouldn't you rather watch videos of her in happier times?
@@chocoholic832 well you’re watching this as well! Lol
@@startracker5895 Nope. I went straight to the comments!
As a Ghanaian Observer I say this May Diana rest in Wonderful Peace.
25 years later in 2022
After 25 years these images still reduce me to tears!!!
Poor poor girl. Really she never stood a chance.
And now we have a Queen Camilla. Somehow it just doesn't seem right.
Time is a wonderful thing they say. Dear Diana God Rest your soul 💖
She's not Queen. She's Queen consort. There is a difference. She's not heir to the throne. Wills is next in line.
I understand this....and Diana would have been this person sitting in chairs alongside her partner and being.supportive just as we see Camilla doing. Had Diana been loved and supported she would more than likely still be here and stepping into her role with Charles just as it should be.
@@raflaughter3474 Oh and it must make you Brits so proud. Your king's queen consort is his former mistress of 30 plus years.
@@ellap364 Brits can be so condescending, can't they? As though Americans are too stupid to realize she is not a reigning queen like Elizabeth II. Yes, we get that. We realize Camilla's position is on par with 2 other great ladies in recent Windsor history. Elizabeth, the late queen mother, and Queen Mary. Those 2 must be rolling in their graves to see a 30 plus year mistress carrying the title of Queen consort.
@@peachygal4153 Actually, if Charles and Camilla are happy then nothing else matters. My opinion, and yours for that matter, is irrelevant.
Even watching now I feel the heart rending grief of all who loved Diana. May she rest in eternal peace xxxxxxxxx❤❤❤❤😢😢
Num mundo perfeito, DIANA hoje seria
RAINHA DO REINO UNIDO....😢😢😢
I don't see any sadness in charles's eyes
He already cried in Paris if you've seen some of the pics, Royals cant show emotions, thats their protocol back then
There never was, I bet there was relief so he could marry that pos.
It was very convenient for him she was gone, he could freely marry Camilla then-
Saddest day Diana passing away ..Diana was beautiful & enjoyed helping people
Yes exactly
she will always be.missed and loved !
Really a very hard moment....love you Princess Diana... you are a Great person..... Always living in our Heart...miss you.,...May your soul rest in Peace 💐💐💐💐
I can still cry over Diana...oh gosh what a heartbreak for the world.Oh Diana oh Diana i wish it was only a bad dream..but....
Me too😭😭🌈
How do you know the whole world was heartbroken?
@@davidsonofyisrael4469 WHAT RUBBISH
@@davidsonofyisrael4469Because every newspaper, news channels were fixated about her death . The whole world mourned. She was special. I dont get notifaction if I get a reply. Ive set my CZcams that way
Time to take your medication t
I really appreciated to the whole Royal family members they have respect her as a Princess till the last of her journey God bless her children and whole the Royal family members especially her ex Husband 💐🙏😍

Charles didn't even love Diana and still recieved condolences. What a heartless monster beast
as a saying goes "as you sow ,sow shall you reap"i believe he will reap double time for what he did#heartless man...
@@lamngaikimdoungel9653 how though?
Absolutely my thoughts
He will never be my King...or that horse my Queen HELL NO.....Diana was the Jewel in the royal family....😔😔😔
Do you know Charles personally? And by the way, slutty Diana was not innocent either. Just ask Will Carling's wife.
That was really a kind and noble thing he did.
Lady Diana was a beautiful human being. None of us know what goes through anyone's mind. I am sure he Charles felt great pain that day. She was and still is the mother of his two sons. I am one person who wishes he and his now wife well.
A saddest home coming… and a saddest event of that decade, I was a freshman college in Canada 🇨🇦 and the whole country were so bereft of the Princess of Wales 🏴 untimely demised.
May her soul Queen Diana Rest in peace and may God bless all her families
She is not a queen.
She was a lovely lady
Still overwhelmed!!!! RIP🌹🌹🌹❤
Forever be remembered Lady Diana❤️
Geleceğin İngiltere kralının annesi. gönüllerin prensesi yerini hiç kimse asla dolduramaz
He gave her respect as the mother of his children.
He should of done that years ago. She would of made a wonderful Queen.
He. Sould have give her respect when she was his wife. Her death. Is partly his fault.
What a joke, "Respect" he betrayed her and you calling it respect

@@luzesquivel6010 How was her death his fault?
Diana was such a beautiful woman inside and out. She is dearly missed in this world.
Maybe you miss her, even though you never knew her. As for me, i do not miss her, and i am sure billions don't either.

Everybody knows how she died yet nobody can say it.
She was a goddess to all humanity.

Sad to say that you're gone already but for me you're still alive i can't accept it missing you princess Diana
Chissà quei poveri bambini ( ora uomini) cosa avranno passato.Quanto dolore per la loro mamma...😢
Always wondered if her boys were able to see her in her casket and felt like they should have (maybe they did) to help them with some sort of closure. I dislike the word "closure" but my nephew was brutally murdered however, the mortuary was able to put him together so that we could view his body and that helped a little bit.
RIP Princess Diana! ❤️
God save you from such an ordeal.
Innocent and beautiful angel
Long live the QUEEN 👑💜😊🌹
Can't see a single tear in Charles eyes.
His evil!!

You have to be human to cry.

Princess Diana was a gentle soul I do hope her soul found peace I do still miss her
ダイアナはチャールズを心から愛してたダイアナを裏切って悲しめて苦しませたのはチャールズです！
From day one Princess Diana was treated like a second hand person. Charles kept on having his affair with Camilla. The Queen insisting on Diana to have her babies at Buckingham Palace, insisting on Diana not to fly with William in a plane, on and on. Diana became a very strong women and broke all the rules. She showed them and did exactly what she wanted to do. You go girl, you went. I am still in disbelief she is dead and in such a horrible way. I will miss her for the rest of my life. I read every single book, I can get my hands on! If only Charles would have been faithful, things may have turned out differently, don't know. May God bless her and Queen Elizabeth! I truly believe Queen Elizabeth, died of a broken heart, losing the Duke so soon. I really believe there is such a thing as that. My Granmother died shortly after my Grandfather, and she was in good health . I took off work, with 3 days pay, to see Diana marry Charles, and the same thing with her funeral. Over a billion other people watched too. Diana got in over her head but came back fighting. I read, if you could get a picture of her and Dodi Fayed kissing, it was worth a $1,000,000.The paparazzi just went too far this time and I belive they had alot to do with it, even though, the driver was legally drunk. I will always wonder if it was a conspiracy or not! God bless to all!
not sure so much conspiracy ,not so sure anymore that I believe the royal family’s version of a “accident” think this was sadly planned. Too many holes to be a “accident”
Why Diana was given a state funeral ewhen she was divorced and no more member of the royal family.still she was given all the protocols.was it because she was mother to the heir who was second in line to the throne at that time??.just asking it for information .
Wdym by losing the duke "so soon", that wrinkly mf was almost 100
The Princess of Wales gave birth to both of her sons at St. Mary's Hospital, not in Buckingham Palace. Many of the events surrounding her life and death were truly sad and shocking, there is no need to add misinformation.
what is so terrible about havhing her children in hospital@@d14551
She was a wonderful person, world lost her soo early
This women will never be forgotten
Diana gained her wings. So Beautiful Princess. RIP 🙏
Must have been the happiest day of his life other than the day he married camilla
He finally got rid of her.
@@IRINE7 The day they got divorced is more than enough… why be happier if she’s dead? Her death will always haunt him and Camilla forever.
@@GeorgiaAndrea Why would it haunt them if they had no part in it? Diana chose to enter that car, and not put on her seatbelt.
@@davidsonofyisrael4469 oh honey if it were only that simple…
his kids mother had died! That's soo rude to say, Diana and Charles had mended their relationship before her death, if not romantically or anything else but he did grieve her death his kids lost their mother.
Жаль, очень жаль, чудесная женщина была!
I love princess Diana rest in peace.
Our dear Queen Diana.
Sehr, sehr, traurig man kann nur weinen, weinen immer wieder. 🙏😭😓
RIP PRINCESS DIANA
So sad she didn't have to die.i love you Princess Diana you are a angel in heaven.
The truth of that statement you made might hurt you.
