STORYLINE:
Former South African President Nelson Mandela visited the grave of the late Diana, Princess of Wales at her ancestral home in Althorp on Friday.
Mandela planted a tree in the grounds of the Northamptonshire estate and laid a wreath at the island burial site of the Princess of Wales.
A temporary bridge was erected so the elderly statesman could have access to the island. Her grave is normally off-limits to visitors who can visit a memorial statue on a bank opposite the island.
The 84 year old is visiting Britain to discuss a new charity project with Diana's brother Earl Spencer. He will outline proposals to combine the Diana, Princess of Wales, Memorial Fund with his own charity, which helps young people suffering from Aids in South Africa.
Diana met the statesman for initial discussions about the idea five months before her death in August 1997.
Mandela said that Diana had made a great impression on him and that the news of her death had been devastating.
Spencer said that the visit of the former South African leader was a great honour for his family and the Princess. He declined to comment on the collapse of the Paul Burrell trial.
Burrell, Diana's former Butler, had been facing a possible prison sentence for allegedly stealing personal items from the Princess of Wales.
Prosecutors dropped the theft charges on Friday, explaining that Queen Elizabeth II had said he told her
shortly after the princess's death that he had taken some of Diana's papers for safekeeping.
Diana was killed in a car crash in Paris August 31 1997.

The poor old chap couldn't walk very well but there he was out in the rain to pay his respects. One of the most touching things I've seen
Hello, how’re you doing.?
Exactly!

Mereka berdua adalah orang hebat ,❤Diana dan Mr Nelson Mandela
So touched by this. Nelson Mandela going to pay his respect for Diana...what an honor to her. Love that man
Love 💕 Diana
Ist time I’ve seen her gravesite!😦RIP Diana Princess of All 💕🌺HI
Just such a shame that he didn't visit her real resting place!
@@timothybrown7792 what do you mean Timothy? Are you being a silly Timothy again?
For a gigantic statesman like Mandela, to esp come to honour and say farewell to Diana is an enormous honour.
This was a beautiful thing for Mandela to do. What an honor to Diana and her family. Words profoundly spoken by Mandela.
Is it!
There have been very few people as fine as Mandela.
@Rosida Andriyana there are different spellings for honor / honour. Both are correct, thank you Miss Teacher.
But as far as many news reporters states, she's not there. I don't think her brother could play like that with mr. Mandela's good faith, taking him to that place. Even though she wanted to be buried next to her father, that's a peaceful place for her remains to rest.
Hi Merritt
Wow. a remarkable man saying goodbye to a remarkable lady. I am sure her smile and beautiful eyes lit up the heavens when he visited her.
He died to?
@@tribal5470 yes, Nelson Mandela died in early December, 2013.
Dianna was a remarkable young woman, may she Rest In Peace. 🙏🏼💗
Hi Mary
It's touching to see Earl Spenser holding Mandela's hand, to protect and steady him, as they walked in the rain.
Hi Dianne
President Nelson Mandela really understood the late Princess Diana's dedication to her charities and humanitarian causes.Thank you for sharing this precious video clip Earl Charles Spencer and family.
A great privilege for Mr Mandala to be invited, Diana had an enormous affection for him and he for her.
What a legendary man he was! No one can ever replace Mr. Nelson Mandela.
So very true a awesome man
ONE OF A KIND!!! A VERY SPECIAL MAN INDEED!!!!🥰🙏 RIP
Ongerehabiliteerde bomplanter en terroris.
If ONLY this world had leaders like him these days.....
He is a traitor only worship outside South Africa
The holding of hands just melted my heart...God bless the good people of this world 💯❤️
Indeed! So beautiful and so deeply touching.
God bless their beautiful souls,Princess Diana and President Manfela
Old please

Two of the people I’ve loved the most in my entire life, Mandela and Diana.
I remember being a little girl living in a very small place in the middle of nowhere on this planet, and on that time, only one neighbor had a TV at home.
The entire village stopped just to watch Diana’s wedding, that’s how powerful she was.
I went to live on the other side of the world and I never saw my people again but I’m sure they all cried when she died. Diana and Mandela were loved by millions. RIP ❤️❤️❤️
Yes Jenny 2 of the best human beings, I don't understand the hyper around queen Elizabeth and her family it's ridiculous, what did they do?
@@Asprey11 why
That's so touching, "In the middle of nowhere on this planet" i can relate, may God continue to bless you wherever you are today ❤
@@ichoosegodfromnowon847 They have been the Royal Family for centuries. That is what the hype is all about. Didn't you do British and European history in school. To understand a lot of what is happening today, it may be beneficial to you to learn a bit about the history of the world. There is a lot of information on the Internet if you can't get information in your library.
🙏🙏💜💜
My god, that was the first time ever, I saw anyone walk on that 'bridge' to the Oval Island where Diana, Princess of Wales is buried !
When I went to the UK for my holidays the friend I was staying with was going to take me there and when I said “ on a boat?” They all laughed at me. I’d had never seen the walkway and I thought I had heard once that u had to row to the middle. I know a few years ago they fixed it up for her 20th anniversary of her death and her boys were more involved, was a ramp put in then? I had a great holiday but I misunderstood our trip to Scotland for the military tattoo. I thought they meant 3 days that that I didn’t know they meant 3 days to get there. So I really only had one day in London....I jumped in a London cab and said “ talk to me” he was like “ talk to u about what? U gonna get in or not?” I said “ yay I wanted a real Londoner to take me around. And wow he took me everywhere for over two hrs ( I told him I only had £60 pounds on me. He said, that’ll do mam” ) I got the right cabbie for sure. Even had time to stop at Harrods to get my gfs their bags. I had two boxes loaded and they said “ write down ur name and addy and it’s free postage” I said “ free postage?” Yep! Then get another box ready. They knew the cabbie was waiting for me lol I got some damn great photos. I’ll be back. This time we’ll make sure we have time to visit Diana. She’s the same age as me and they announced their engagement on my birthday. I’ll never forget when the words came across the screen. Then the news. I cried and hope u would all wake up early. We watched a lady walk up to the gates and put the first flower down.. I cried saying it must be true.
@@SpookyElectric319 Thanks so much for explaining things to me. I loved Scotland and the castles. I cried seeing my first ever real castle. I had dreamed about it for years..
I know lockdown still isn’t over for a lot of countries. Here in Aussie you can’t even go from state to state. Qld has opened its borders to country NSW but not for Sydney dwellers. Once Victoria opens its borders again, I’ll be flying down there to have time with my best mate.
When the world opens up again I’ll be one of the first to get my holidays back in order. There are still places a want to see.
Thanks again for the info. My friend made it sound like there was a place we could go to, to lay some flowers. It’s amazing how one person made the whole world to fall in love with her.
@@SpookyElectric319 Great link. I’ve saved it. 👍🏼🙂🇦🇺😷
Diana has always been in the church next to the only man she devoted on that being her DAD
@123see 456 yes it’s all been fixed up. And if the two boys can be civil to each other a bust of their mother is going to be put where people can come and leave flowers,talk to her or just pray. That’s happening in June this year. We’ll all meet here again no doubt lol 🙂🙏🏻🇦🇺🪃
So sad the way she died, the world still loves her. Gone but not forgotten. Thank you Mr. Mandela for taking the time to pay respect to Princess Diana. May the both of you rest in peace.🙏
@George Dave Her love and sincerity to humankind, regardless to race or color. That's what I love most about her.
very touching. it is good to see that Princess Diana is buried in nature, and not like so many celebs in marble stone constructions.I feel that nature is the best place for her. I still miss her.
I love her always because the kind of HUMAN SHE WAS...GBH AND BE WITH GOD ALWAYS...AMEN.

Hahaha... you’re joking. She’s in a lead coffin. That’s not very close to nature.

@MICHELLE Griffin Ashes to Ashes
Nelson Mandela visiting Diana shows how loved and respected she was by everyone except Charles, the ungrateful.
May Nelson Mandela and Diana always rest in peace in heaven.
Charles the Jealous. He could never be with Diana because he could not handle that the public loved her and not him.
She was so young n Charles was 10 yrs older, he could have had new start with her.
Chuckles was 33 years old and getting pressure from mummy and daddy to marry, produce an heir.
That required an aristocratic virgin.
At the time, the rottweiler was neither, diana was both.
And it isn’t as though chuckles gave up the rottweiler.
So Charles is ungrateful because he loved someone else? Diana loved and was with more men - Charles was with one. All the people that are so judgemental and think they know the inside of someone else’s relationship are not in the real world. I would like to see them be told who they can and can’t be with and then judge them for life. Intolerant and void of humanity, it’s a sad life they lead, transferring their miserable existences onto people they don’t even know.
@@robertandhollyscorpiofan2697 Why should he? His life, not yours.
I'm sure Diana would have paid her respects to him as well.
what she was a lady !
Yes she would ❤️ I wish she was still here with us 😔
What a loss to the world, I loved them both.
All will have to die one day except God who lives forever in all his Majesty & glory.
She should have a grave where the people who loved her can visit. Maybe St. Paul's.

PaislHi
Some people forgot her what she mean to for disadvantaged people,Nelson Mandela because he is a true man even in death he recognized her job. Rip two greats
I will not forget!
Watching from New Zealand how lovely too Nelson Mandela, President of Africa visiting Our Princess Diana 👑
You calling madela president of Africa is like me saying Queen Elizabeth is the president of Europe...
Kindly educate yourself before dishing out comments online
That was very touching seeing him in his old age and the effort it took for him to walk all the way out there and then coming out holding Earl Spencer’s hand. Moved me to tears. Rest In Peace to the People’s Princess. Diana. You and your kindness are not forgotten.
Hello Sharon
Beautiful
Can you imagine the conversation those two are having right now. HEAVENLY just HEAVENLY. 👼👼👼❤❤❤
who are you?
It's pleasant to think in this way, but it's not what the Bible says. Unless a person believes on the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior from their sin, they will never see Heaven or God.
Jesus tells Us The Dead are Dead!! No One is in Heaven at this time. Until The "Ressurection" the Dead Shall Rest in Their Graves. The Dead Cannot Commuicate with the Living and the Living Cannot Speak to the Dead. The Dead Know Nothing which happens under the Sun. This is the Teachings of "JESUS"!! Read Your Bible. Diana is Asleep in Her Grave waiting to Hear the Voice of the Lord Calling Her Up.
@@gailcurl8663
Exactly Robert n Gail n
John 5:28-29 Says there will
be a resurrection, the dead are sleeping conscious of nothing, in God's memory, awaiting to hear the voice of the now reigning king in the heavens Jesus Christ. The holy scriptures God's word is so simple to understand but imperfect humans just love to twist things up.
The world missing two beautiful angels that walked our planet...RIP!
Rest in peace princess Diana. It's been how many years and I'm still sitting here crying. What a beautiful and honorable woman she was on this Earth. What a beautiful thing for Mandela to do. And her burial spot is peaceful.. Thank you
Diana the queen is dead
Wonderful friendship they had....So respectful man that he didn't forgotten Diana's humanitarian 😥😍
Oh really that's nice to hear
How are you doing Teresa
God bless Diana and Mandela. Two angels.
She was admired when she was alive. She is appreciated when deceased. We will always remember you dear Princess Diana. You are forever close to our hearts. We feel the pain without you and we miss you dearly. R.I.P. Our beloved Princess. No one will ever replace you !! 😭😰
Absolutely
Hoping Charles and Camilla feel their betrayals in hell !
This brings tears to my eyes. Thanks for sharing this video. I did not know that our late president visited Princess Diana's resting place.
Even the sky was crying that day I believe
He didn't she isn't buried at Althorp
@@timothybrown7792 What on EARTH are you talking about
I did not know that either. So heartwarming. As a South African I miss them both. Our country needs another Mandela now
@@forpetessake3532 he's saying she's not really dead
Very moving. A moment frozen in time. Thank you for sharing this with the world. In this time (July 22, 2021), rewatching this is just what the world needs. 👍🏻🌹❤️💔💕
What a lovely final resting spot for the world's precious Princess, Diana
Hi
I do not belive she is there!...🤔
Hello Gwen
One amazing person paying respects to another amazing person Diane and Nelson Mandela God bless them both
Mendella makes everything so calm and positive. Wonderful man .
With or because of all he went through in his life he was the most gracious man in politics. The world needs more of this caliber men . R I P Nelson Mandela.
Well said Sir. Thank you.
No one ever thinks about Diana’s brother. What about his grief, he lost his baby sister. He and his wife seem such a lovely couple who watch over Diana still. Peace and ❤️ love...
Yes but he also told Diana not to come home when she was having all the trouble with the royals
Yes but he was worried about his family's security if Diana came to his home. Diana was stalked by photographers and the security necessary to keep them out would be too much. He made a choice.
@@adelgado75 that cost her, her life in the end
@@adelgado75 As her brother it was his moral responsibility to protect her. He is as guilty as the Windsors. But he is playing up the grief for profit now isn't he.
Harry and Will visits them and the grave often. Harry took Meghan there before the wedding.
Princess Diana and Nelson Mandela have always been my favourite personality. They both were kind and great fighters, they never band down, but rather fought until to their vary last breathe. Many respects and love to them and their families
How respectful can it get. What a wonderful man to travel to pay his respects, when Diana was not able to make it to him.
Thank you so much for posting this. Kudos to Madiba for paying his respects to Diana.
We miss her terribly...such a waste...
So young...such a good person...
So touching. R.I.P. President Mandela, as with Princess Diana.
How touching!
I concur

Princess Diana to this day is the Queen of people’s hearts 💞.
Hello Tonya
He knew what he was doing, he knew where he had to go, and he went from the heart, not pretending. Exciting. What no one ever did of the "Royal Family".The rain makes it more moving.
Mandela was one of the pivotal figures of the 20th Century. Ending apartheid and oppression in South Africa was the lasting legacy of this incredible and gracious man. RIP both Mandela and Princess Diana.
RIP Lady Diana. You are still loved and remembered.
I absolutely loved both Madiba and Princess Diana. What an amazing gesture to visit her at her final resting place. May they both continue to rest in love ❤
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. . . . .Amen.
And may the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace.
And rest in total and absolute power. In Lady Diana's case I hope there's a massive concert and some kick arse dancing with all her pals. 🙏♥️💛💙🎶💃🕺
Amen 🙏
🙏🙏💖💖🌸🌹
An amazing man Nelson. Thank you so much for acknowledgement of the late Diana. Rest in love to you Nelson & Diana. Beautiful human beings.
DOES DIANA have any family members buried near her grave sight?That's always bothered me the thought of her resting place being so isolated land leaving her all alone the one thing she disliked the most she hated being the most, I hope she is buried near her father at least?
Charles Spencer is very intelligent and knows how to answer questions from the evil press!
In his elderly state, President Mandela still had the courage to do this, something not many people get to do. He must've known Diana well. It was also a huge privilege to hear him speaking. I don't think I've heard him speak before.
Two people that really cared and dedicated their lives to making the world better. No strings attached not for personal enrichment.
It's lovely that a great man like President Mandela visited the tomb of a great woman like Princess Diana.
What a beautiful.man. And how could anyone think it's not a beautiful tribute to a beautiful woman . From a beautiful man.
Hello Michelle 👋 how are you doing
I felt so humbled seeing this wonderful man visit our beautiful princess grave monument. I never knew he did that. He commented, how devastated he was of the late Princess passing. I pray these beautiful souls are reunited to have as many wonderful conversations as they wish. ❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hi Jo how are you doing today
It meant so much to this person. If only her son's could've been there to meet him.
God Bless you Sir
She was an Angel..or Saint now she s dead ..no one can replace her .......she will be missed and remberbered over a thiusand years.. !! Irrepleacable..
And this Temple where she is buried and lay to rest is perfect a special place she deserves..💜💙💫🙏🙏🙏

That was really a marvelous and touching moment ! Thanks to the great leader !
Mr. Mandela and Diana were both angels I am sure they did understand each other very well
Yeah, the same angel who as a former terrorist committed mass murder.. That angel? Your stupidity and gullibility are incomprehensible

Two greatest world icons. We will always miss and love them. A beautiful and kind gesture from the old man, what a selfless deed! He was a rare gem... ❤❤
Beautiful heartfelt gesture from a good man. The Spencer Family are a deep Rooted respectable, widely Cultured Ancient Aristocracy. 🙏💙
A wonderful man that many could have learnt so much.

Very touching and emotional to Mr Mandela paying his last respect after five years since her death may they rest in enternal peace
From one humanitarian to another humanitarian. Kindred spirit.
Thank you for sharing, what a beautiful place to see!
Diana was so beautiful and classy. I hope Harry if he has a girl will name her Diana.
Hope not. Poor kid will have to live with that shadow hanging over her.
William did great with Charlotte's name
Agreed!
Can’t see it happening because Megan will have to agree and it’ll depend on the mood she’s in Probably want to name her after a Hollywood star
@@onlygirl1635 did they named her after Princess Charlotte the daughter of George IV who if not dies young becoming Queen? .. I love the name charlotte very beautiful and fit any all eras.
Both angels went at Paradise..We still love you two!
So much respect for both. ❤️😥
Not many left in this world who can measure up to the stature and stamina Nelson Mandela. He was a giant amongst men and women of all kinds.
Hello Linda how are you doing today
Dear Madiba, we miss your wisdom, your humanity, your love and kindness. You were a special person. No wonder you loved the beautiful Diana when you met with her in our beautiful country. I'm crying as I write this message. Such a beautiful woman who still had so much to give to her boys and this world. The People's Princess. RIP dearest Diana and our beloved Madiba. Your legacies will remain. This World is poorer without you.🙏🙏⚘⚘
Hello Annelize how are you doing?
Just so sad that she is out in the woods. ( that's what it looks like)
How honorable for the President to visit! Diana was so loved by all, all over the world!! 😍😍😍
RIP , Princess Diana and President Mandela. 🙏🙇♀️
young nurse yes seems like she's isolated. I can only wonder if she would actually enjoy the privacy, peace? We can honor her, keep her memory front and center , by caring forward on her love and charity. I'd like to think that she is seen everyday in the faces and lives of her two beloved sons and grandchildren. 💘 to all from the United States.
I believe she is actually burried in the Spencer crypt inside the church. I think the island burial was to keep people away from the church. If it was known that she was burried with her Dad in the church, the mass crowds visiting would have been unmanageable. I day say there is a memorial stone on the island but I doubt Diana is there. Probably only very close family know the truth.
What a beautiful gravesite and temple! So very fitting and tasteful. Moves me to tears! Rest in Peace, Diana ❤️
Salute n honor for Mr. Nelson Mandela for his doing to our loved Princess Diana..🙏❤❤❤😢😢💕💦
