Now we know where Harry got his talent for self-pity. Both his parents were whiners, but this latest, boring episode consisted almost entirely of Diana explaining her sadness, describing herself as a celestial creature doomed to a life of desperate loneliness and ready to try a frog after her prince "broke her heart."
Dr. Khan is the haplessly described frog, bewildered by this famous woman's pursuit of him. Was she even his type? Was she anywhere close to an intellectual equal? We'll never know.
Other things we may never know is just why Diana had no friends or close family, but had to pay for confidants by way of acupuncturists and astrologers. Even people like Al Fayed sometimes make dear friends from their servants, but we do know that Diana fired 40 of her maids for very little reason. In this episode we see her kindness to the sick but that other side of her is safely tucked behind the curtain as it is to this day.
Here we also see how easily the Spencers, never noted for their brains, were fooled by the dishonest journalist and it is a disgraceful moment in the BBC's history. But as con-men are fond of saying, you can't con someone who isn't greedy and Diana was always greedy for the public's adoration so she's more than eager for her TV debut.
Those of the population who were also divorced, had the in-laws turn against us, and felt strongly that our own side was the right side, might envy Diana her chance to tell the world about her husband's infidelity while leaving out her own, and garner loads of sympathy about all she'd been through. However I think most of us would have stopped ourselves before airing our dirty laundry in public and hurting our children in the process.
