Yes. Possibly because she was about to announce her engagement to Dodi Al Fayed, a muslim man. I think the Royal Family couldnt get their heads around the fact the future King of England and head of the Church of England would have a Muslim stepfather. I love a conspiracy theory and there are loads around the driver working that night when he shouldn't have been and whether he was actually a plant so the "accident" would happen. They never found the other car either.
They weren't getting engaged. That's a story Dodi's father put out! There was no engagement and her best friend said it was just a summer fling as Diana was still in love with her ex. It was Dodi's father that also put out the rumour Diana was pregnant when she died but her best friend said she had stayed with her a week before going on holiday with Dodi and that she had her period at the time.
I so agree with you, although she could be very manipulative I think it was unfair and even cruel for her as a 19 year old virgin ( I think she probably was) to be picked as a wife to a Prince in his 30's who was having an affair with a married woman. You could see that she was totally besotted with Charles and how naïve she was, "what ever love is" was a very telling comment from him. I think the whole thing caused her to have mental health issues, she was the RF's brood mare while Charles bonked Camilla on the side, and they all knew it.
She already had mental health issues from childhood caused by her mother abandoning her. I don't think she was in love with Charles. She read romance books and was probably in love with the idea. Plus who dates someone their elder sister previously dated? I certainly wouldn't. They only saw each other 11 times from when they met to the wedding. It seems ridiculous but he had to marry a virgin so he wasn't going to find many of those around his own age bracket.
I don't believe the Queen had anything to do with it, i do believe however Prince Philip had something to do with the death of Diana.
Prince Charles wanted to marry Camilla and felt he couldn't do it while Diana was alive as Diana was hugely popular and Queen of everyones hearts and it would make it look bad for her and Royal family by Charles remarrying. Unfortunately Diana did die so there wouldn't be as much uproar Charles marrying again.
I would like to know why it took the Queen a long time to make a tribute about her ex daughter in law.

Conspiracy theories[edit]
From February 1998, Al-Fayed maintained that the crash was a result of a conspiracy,
[52] and later contended that the crash was orchestrated by
MI6 on the instructions of
Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
[53] His claims that the crash was a result of a conspiracy were dismissed by a French judicial investigation, but Fayed appealed against this verdict. A libel action was brought against Al-Fayed by Neil Hamilton (see above).
The British
Operation Paget, a
Metropolitan police inquiry that concluded in 2006, also found no evidence of a conspiracy.
[54] To Operation Paget, Al-Fayed made 175 "conspiracy claims".
[55]
An inquest headed by
Lord Justice Scott Baker into the deaths of Diana and Dodi began at the
Royal Courts of Justice, London, on 2 October 2007 and lasted for six months. It was a continuation of the original inquest that had begun in 2004.
[56]
At the Scott Baker inquest Fayed accused the
Duke of Edinburgh, the
Prince of Wales,
Lady Sarah McCorquodale, her sister, and numerous others, of plotting to kill the Princess of Wales.
[57] Their motive, he claimed, was that they could not tolerate the idea of the Princess marrying a Muslim.
[58]
Al-Fayed first claimed that the Princess was pregnant to the
Daily Express in May 2001,
[58] and that he was the only person who had been told of this news. Witnesses at the inquest who said the Princess was not pregnant, and could not have been, were part of the conspiracy according to Al-Fayed.
[59] Fayed's testimony at the inquest was roundly condemned in the press as being farcical. Members of the British Government's
Intelligence and Security Committee accused Fayed of turning the inquest into a 'circus' and called for it to be ended maturely.
[60] Lawyers representing Al-Fayed later accepted at the inquest that there was no direct evidence that either the Duke of Edinburgh or MI6 had been involved in any murder conspiracy involving Diana or Dodi.
[61] A few days before Al-Fayed's appearance, John Macnamara, a former senior detective at Scotland Yard and Al-Fayed's investigator for five years from 1997, was forced to admit on 14 February 2008 that he had no evidence to suggest foul play, except for the assertions Al-Fayed had made to him.
[62] His admissions also related to the lack of evidence for Al-Fayed's claims about the alleged pregnancy of the Princess and the couple's supposed engagement.
[62]
The jury verdict, given on 7 April 2008, was that Diana and Dodi had been "
unlawfully killed" through the
grossly negligent driving of chauffeur
Henri Paul,
[63] who was
intoxicated, and the pursuing vehicles.
[64]
Lawyers for Al-Fayed also accepted that there was no evidence to support the assertion that Diana was illegally embalmed in order to cover up a pregnancy, a "pregnancy" that they accepted could not be established by any medical evidence.
[61] They also accepted that there was no evidence to support the assertion the French emergency and medical services had played any role in a conspiracy to harm Diana.
[61] Following the Baker inquest, Al-Fayed said that he was abandoning his campaign to prove that Diana and Dodi were murdered in a conspiracy, and said that he would accept the verdict of the jury.
[65]
Al-Fayed financially supported
Unlawful Killing (2011), a documentary film accused of presenting his version of events.
[66] The film was not formally released as a result of legal problems.
