Why Princess Diana Was Afraid of Donald Trump

In the last year of her life, the most photographed woman on earth sat at a dinner table with a friend and asked a question about the flowers that kept arriving at Kensington Palace. Roses and orchids, hundreds of pounds a bouquet, each with a handwritten note suggesting they get together. What am I going to do, she asked. He gives me the creeps.

The flowers were not the beginning. For fifteen years before they arrived, Donald Trump had been attaching her name to his buildings: stories about Charles and Diana buying an apartment in Trump Tower, a 1994 report Buckingham Palace called highly speculative rubbish, and a claim that the couple had joined his club in Palm Beach that the palace called complete and utter rubbish.

This is the documented story of what Diana feared, told through her own words, a thank you note she wrote him in July 1997, and what he said and did with her name after she was gone.
