Full Name: Diana Frances Spencer (Diana, Princess of Wales); Profession: British royal, humanitarian, philanthropist; Nationality: British; Born: 1 July 1961; Birthplace: Park House, Sandringham, Norfolk, England; Generation: Baby Boomer; Chinese Zodiac: Metal Ox; Zodiac Sign: Cancer; Age in 2026: 65 (born 1961, she would have been 65 years old in 2026 if still alive); Marital Status: Divorced (formerly married to Charles, Prince of Wales; the couple separated in 1992, and their divorce was finalized on 28 August 1996 after about 15 years of marriage); Children: Prince William Arthur Philip Louis (born 21 June 1982) and Prince Henry Charles Albert David “Harry” (born 15 September 1984), both sons of Diana and Charles and central figures in the modern British royal family; Description: Diana, Princess of Wales, was a member of the British royal family whose 1981 wedding to Charles, Prince of Wales, transformed her into one of the most famous and photographed women in the world. She was admired for her charisma, compassion, and ability to connect emotionally with ordinary people across cultures and social classes. Diana used that intense global media attention to champion humanitarian causes, including AIDS awareness at a time of widespread stigma; support for cancer and children’s hospitals such as the Royal Marsden and Great Ormond Street; advocacy for people affected by leprosy through The Leprosy Mission; work with homeless youth via Centrepoint; and high-profile campaigns against anti-personnel landmines that helped shift international opinion and contributed to the momentum behind the Ottawa Treaty, thereby humanizing the British monarchy and redefining the public role of a royal consort in the late 20th century. Cause of Death: Died aged 36 from internal injuries sustained in a high-speed car crash in the Pont de l’Alma road tunnel in Paris, France, on 31 August 1997, when the Mercedes in which she was traveling with Dodi Fayed struck a concrete pillar while being pursued by paparazzi, with subsequent official investigations concluding that the crash was caused by excessive speed, the driver’s intoxication, and the pursuit by photographers rather than foul play.
