Theirs was a meeting that was spontaneous and unplanned. When Princess Diana first met the Prince of Wales, he was dating her elder sister, Sarah Spencer. But the chance meeting between the two lead to their royal engagement, where Princess Diana hand-picks her own wedding ring. As depicted in a recent screen adaptation, when an interviewer says to the pair that they looked 'very much in love', Prince Charles did actually say, "Whatever in love means."

From the much-awaited wedding ceremony to the iconic wedding gown of Princess Diana, each and every aspect of the wedding broke headlines and made for a historic moment up until today. The royal couple were married at the St. Paul's Cathedral in London on July 29, 1981. Princess Diana's wedding dress was designed by David and Elizabeth Emanuel and consisted of a train that was 25 feet long, also adapted beautifully on screen.

Besides being a generous being, Princess Diana was also a wonderful mother to her two boys, Prince William and Harry. Her incessant need to be near her children and to give them all the love and affection, even amidst all the chaos that buzzed around her royal identity, was not just inspiring but is what got to the majority of the public.

From the time she was associated with the British royal family, she became the face of the royal household. Everywhere she went, everything she did, became the talk of the town. Her relationship with the paparazzi was that which could not be overlooked and while she may have enjoyed the attention initially, it is what may have changed the course of her life.

Some of the greatest moments in Princess Diana's life are linked to her fashion sense and the statements she made through her fashion choices. From her red polka dot gown to the Royal Opera House in 1982 to the white gown she wore on her solo trip to New York, everything was beautifully depicted in a recent over the top series.

As Princess Diana stepped into the realm of royalty, she was unaware of the world that was going to change the course of her life. Taking her time in adjusting to the new household, she slowly and steadily realised the change she could bring into the world and also understood the impact she could have on the people. During her visit to the Harlem hospital in America, she bents down and hugs a child with AIDS. This caused a stir amongst the public and is what defines her life as the People's Princess.
