Diana, Princess of Wales News & Questions 9: 2021 -

why not get rid of them if they dont have space to keep them?

It is possible that the family ise selling them, but I think it is unlikely. It is possoble that when they sold their London home, they disposed off some personal effects, and these cards are part of that collection.

That's what I thought too and are probably clearing through the late kings personal effects.

Princess Diana banned from It’s a Royal Knockout

Apparently Princess Diana wanted to do “It’s a royal knockout” tv show but Charles banned her.

Why do you think she was prevented from taking part in the show?

Charles didnt want to take part, nor for his wife to take part, it was a rather silly undignified show, and not really sutiable for royals to be in.

Thank goodness Charles and Diana avoided that mess! I cringe to simply remember it

It was silly but compared with today's scandals, pretty mild. But I would imagine Charles would not wnat to be in it.

I don't know if this is the right place to post. Mohamed Al Fayed died at age 94. What I think is touchy is that je died a September 1st. 26 years and one day after his son Dodi last his life with Princess Diana In Paris.

 

[Moonmaiden23]

Oh my...I am just hearing of this! Al Fayed's life was very long of course, but he was very marked by the loss of his oldest son. I felt heartbroken for him; no one deserves the kind of torment he suffered from the events of August 1997..

I hope he had a joyful reunion with Dodi.

"In a statement released by Fulham FC, his family said: 'Mrs Mohamed Al Fayed, her children and grandchildren wish to confirm that her beloved husband, their father and their grandfather, Mohamed, has passed away peacefully of old age on Wednesday August 30, 2023."

I could not correct my post talking about September 1st.
So he died almost the same day- only some hours before 26 years after
.

It was silly and undignified, but it was actually quite funny. It's a Knockout was a popular programme in its day. It attracted a big TV audience and raised a lot of money for charity. A lot of big name celebs were involved, and the royals just acted as team captains and weren't actually involved in the "games". It was pretty mild compared to some of what's happened since.
