Never-before-seen pictures of Princess Diana

People all across the world fell in love with Princess Diana, the adored woman of her era.

We invite you to take a look down memory lane as we examine some uncommon and intriguing images that provide a deeper look into her remarkable life.

These are the kinds of moments that will make you smile and feel good.

Diana is pictured here on a skiing trip to Austria with her kids, Harry and William. This photograph was shot shortly after Harry turned nine years old. He’s adorable, and the whole family is stunning!

Diana and her children visited Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands in 1990, together with her sister’s children. The island was owned by Richard Branson of Virgin.

Diana knows how to have a good time. Look at this lovely photo of her and Harry visiting the amusement park Thorpe Park in 1992.

Diana was dubbed “The People’s Princess” by many. She was involved in numerous humanitarian endeavors, offering a good example of how a kind and loving person should act.

Princess Diana is shown here visiting an Orthopedic workshop in Luanda, Angola, and sitting with land mine victims.

We could go on and on about Diana’s wonderful photographs. This one was taken in 1971, while she was on vacation in Itchenor, West Sussex.

Meanwhile, this one was taken outside Diana’s flat in Coleherne Court, London, before to her engagement to Charles.

Harry is pictured here sticking out his tongue to the crowd gathering around Buckingham Palace. Diana seemed to be taken aback.

Barbour is still a popular royal apparel brand, although Princess Diana may have worn it best.

Diana adored Barbour, and her journey to the Outer Hebrides in Scotland in 985 was the ideal occasion to wear her Barbour-style waxed cotton jacket.

Jayne Fincher, a royal photographer who captured some of Princess Diana’s most memorable images, trailed the royal couple everywhere they went. She’d rented a jet to travel to the Outer Hebrides, where Charles and Diana were on official business.

“When I caught up,” says Fincher, “Charles said, ‘Where have you been?’”

The Outer Hebrides are subject to extremes of wind and rain, which Princess Diana experienced during her visit there in 1985.But she looks great in the images from the trip, and photographer Jayne noticed something after going over the negatives.

“You don’t see Diana dressed like that very often. She looked so happy. It was pouring rain, but her makeup was perfect and un-smudged. I looked a mess, as usual,” she said.

The photo below was taken during Diana’s last summer alive. She is seen with her boyfriend Dodi Al Fayed on a boat in St. Tropez, France, jumping into the water.

Diana will be remembered as a truly great and loving human being.

I Taught My Dad a Real Lesson after He Humiliated My Mom

When an 18-year-old college student, Brittany, feels the pangs of homesickness, a simple call to her little brother, Ian, reveals a family in turmoil. Overwhelmed by her mother’s silent struggle under her father’s constant criticism, Brittany decides it’s time for a lesson in gratitude and teamwork.

Feeling homesick is a funny thing; it sneaks up on you when you least expect it, wrapping its cold fingers around your heart and squeezing tight until you’re gasping for the warmth of home.

That’s exactly how I, Brittany, felt, being away at college for over three months. It was the longest I’d ever been away from home, and each day stretched on endlessly without the familiar chaos of my family’s presence.

One day, overcome by a wave of nostalgia, I picked up my phone and dialed Ian, my ten-year-old younger brother. He had always been the beacon of innocence and joy in our family, and just hearing his voice could make any bad day better.

“Hey, bug,” I greeted, using my childhood nickname for him. “I miss you a ton. How’s my favorite little man doing?”

Ian’s voice, a mix of excitement and surprise, came through the phone. “Britt! I miss you too! College is so far away. When are you coming back?”

We talked for what felt like hours. Ian’s endless questions about college life and my attempts to describe my mundane routine in the most exciting way possible filled the gap between us. Yet, despite the laughter and shared stories, a nagging feeling tugged at my heart when I finally steered the conversation toward home.

“So, how’s everything back there? Mom and Dad doing okay?” I asked, trying to sound casual.

There was a slight pause, a hesitation in Ian’s voice that I hadn’t expected. “It’s okay, I guess. I really wish you could come visit, though.”

His words, innocent as they were, sent alarm bells ringing in my head. Ian was never one to mince words, but something in his tone suggested there was more he wasn’t saying. That night, I lay awake, the conversation replaying in my mind, my homesickness now mixed with concern.

Determined to shake off the uneasy feeling, I managed to wrap up all my pending college projects ahead of time, packing my bags for an impromptu trip home. The thought of seeing my family again, of hugging my little brother and sharing a meal with my parents, filled me with a rush of excitement I hadn’t felt in weeks.

The trip back was a blur of anticipation and anxiety. What was Ian not telling me? Why did his voice carry a weight it never had before?

Stepping into the familiar chaos of my childhood home was both a relief and a shock. The house, with its walls echoing laughter and arguments, welcomed me back with open arms. Yet, it was during one of these typical family evenings that I overheard Dad’s sharp voice cutting through the usual din.

“…And why is dinner cold again, Megan? Can’t you do anything right?”

The words stopped me in my tracks, my heart sinking. I peeked into the kitchen to find Mom, her back to me, shoulders slumped as if carrying the weight of the world.

Ian caught my eye from where he sat at the kitchen table, his expression a mix of discomfort and resignation. It was a look I had never seen on his face before, and it chilled me to the bone.

Later, when I found Ian alone in his room, I closed the door behind me and sat beside him on the bed. “Hey, bug,” I began, my voice soft but firm. “What’s been going on with Dad and Mom? I heard him earlier…”

Ian shifted uncomfortably, his gaze dropping before meeting mine again. “Britt, it’s been… tough. Dad’s always on Mom about something. Like, if dinner’s a bit cold or if he finds a single speck of dust on the carpet. It’s like, no matter how much Mom does — cooking, cleaning, laundry — Dad finds something to complain about.”

Hearing Ian articulate it, the reality of the situation hit me hard. The idea of my vibrant, tireless mother being reduced to the target of such constant criticism was unbearable. Something clicked in me right then — a resolve to make things right, to show Dad the enormity of his actions.

So fueled by indignation, I hatched a plan. A plan that, I hoped, would make Dad see the error of his ways and bring some much-needed appreciation and balance back into our family dynamics.

The first part of my plan involved a dramatic, though deceitful, act. I waited until I knew Dad would be at home, took a deep breath to steady my nerves, and dialed his number.

“Hello?” Dad’s voice came through, a note of surprise in his tone.

“Dad, it’s me,” I began, my voice shaking to feign distress. “I’m at the ER. It’s… it’s bad. I need Mom here with me.”

The panic in his voice was immediate. “What? What happened? I’ll get your mom and we’ll be right there —”

“No, Dad, just send Mom. Please. I… I need her,” I cut in, hoping my act was convincing enough.

After a moment of hurried assurances and panicked questions, Dad agreed, and I hung up, my heart pounding not just from the lie but from what I had to do next.

I quickly composed a message to Mom, explaining my ruse. “Mom, don’t worry, I’m not in the ER. But Dad thinks I am, and he’s going to tell you to come. Don’t. I’ve booked you a ticket for a little vacation. You deserve a break. Let’s show Dad what you juggle every day.”

My fingers hovered over the send button before I pressed it, sealing our pact of deception and hope.

Mom’s response was a mix of concern and incredulity, but ultimately, she understood the desperation behind my actions. “Are you sure about this, Britt? What about you and Ian?”

“Trust me, Mom. It’s time Dad learned. Ian and I will be fine. Enjoy your break, you deserve it.”

The next day was a whirlwind. Dad’s calls came in, each more frantic than the last, begging Mom to return. Playing her part, Mom promised to come back “in the evening,” stoking Dad’s hope and desperation further.

But when evening came, it wasn’t Mom who walked through the door; it was me. Dad’s face went pale, a mix of confusion and relief battling within him as he took in my healthy appearance.

“Where’s your mother?” he asked, the strain evident in his voice.

“She’s taking a well-deserved break,” I stated firmly, stepping over a toy car in my path. “It’s just you and me for the next few days. And we need to talk, Dad.”

As I surveyed the chaos of the house — clothes stained with today’s adventures, toys scattered like landmines — I saw something I never thought I would: defeat. Dad sank into a chair, the image of a man overwhelmed by the world he had taken for granted.

“I didn’t realize how much work this was,” he admitted, his eyes taking in the disorder around him. “I can’t keep up with everything.”

“That’s the point, Dad,” I said, sitting down across from him. “Mom does this every day, without a single complaint. She’s the glue that holds us together, and she deserves far more than being criticized over a cold dinner or an unclean carpet.”

The days that followed were a revelation for Dad. Under my guidance, he began to see the intricacy and the effort behind the seamless running of our household. From laundry to cooking to managing Ian’s never-ending energy, Dad got a firsthand experience of Mom’s daily life.

When Mom finally returned, she found a home that, while not perfect, brimmed with appreciation and newfound respect. As she stepped through the door, her eyes taking in the slightly disordered but peaceful scene, Dad approached her, his demeanor one of humility and newfound understanding.

“Megan,” he began, his voice softer than I’d heard in a long time, “I can’t begin to express how much I’ve missed you, but more importantly, how much I’ve realized the weight of what you do for us every day.”

Mom paused, her expression guarded but curious. “Paul, what’s this all about?”

“These past few days have been… enlightening,” Dad admitted, taking her hands in his. “I never fully appreciated the endless tasks and challenges you face daily. You manage them with such grace and efficiency. I’m sorry for not seeing it before, for not helping more, and for every unwarranted criticism I ever made.”

Mom’s eyes softened, a hint of moisture gleaming as she squeezed his hands back. “Thank you, Paul. That means more to me than you know.”

Meanwhile, Ian and I shared a glance, a silent celebration of the success of our plan. Later, as the evening settled down, Ian and I found a moment alone.

“Britt,” Ian said, a grin spreading across his face, “we did it, didn’t we?”

“We sure did, bug,” I replied, ruffling his hair affectionately. “Thanks for being brave and honest. We make a pretty good team, you know.”

Ian’s smile widened, pride evident in his eyes. “Yeah, we do.”

Later, Dad pulled me aside, a seriousness in his gaze. “Britt, I owe you an apology — and a thank you. What you did… it was a tough lesson, but one I needed to learn. You’ve shown me the true meaning of family and teamwork.”

I hugged him, feeling the barriers of misunderstanding melt away. “It was a team effort, Dad. We all learned something valuable.”

As our family gathered that night, the atmosphere was different — lighter, warmer, more connected. We talked, we laughed, and for the first time in a long time, we truly listened to each other. The episode that had started as a desperate attempt to bring about change had blossomed into a beautiful lesson in respect, teamwork, and love.

Reflecting on everything, I realized that our family, like so many others, had its flaws and challenges. Yet, it was our willingness to confront those issues, to learn and grow from them, that truly defined us.

Meredith’s typical weekend turned extraordinary when an unexpected discovery by her mother, Camilla, brought her world to a standstill.

With her life seemingly as snug and predictable as a well-worn sweater, Meredith, a 32-year-old mother and wife, believed she had a firm grip on her reality. Her husband, Dave, had always been her rock, their bond strengthening through each of life’s trials. However, life’s penchant for unpredictability was about to be laid bare.

As Meredith prepared for a rare moment of relaxation, an urgent call from her workplace shattered the calm, dragging her away on a weekend. Dave, caught in the throes of sleep after his night shift, remained unaware of the unfolding drama.

Meredith’s call to her mother, seeking help with the children, seemed innocuous enough — a simple request from a daughter to her ever-reliable mother. Little did she know, this act set in motion a series of events that would challenge the very essence of her marriage.

“Hello?” Meredith answered her phone, only to be met with her mother’s frantic urging, “You have to divorce him immediately!” The shock, palpable through the line, was compounded by Dave’s background protests and her mother’s adamant accusation.

“I found women’s underwear in his pocket — women’s underwear! He’s been lying to you all this time!” Camilla’s discovery and subsequent demand for immediate action left Meredith reeling, a torrent of emotions clashing within her.

As Meredith’s world teetered on the edge, the drive back home was fraught with turmoil. Her mind raced, grappling with the implications of her mother’s discovery and the fear of what awaited her. The tension that greeted her upon arrival was palpable, a silent testament to the upheaval that had taken root in her absence.

What followed was a confrontation laden with emotions, accusations, and desperate explanations. Yet, the specifics of this exchange, the revelations shared, and the decisions made in its aftermath remain shrouded in mystery.
