The fairy tale romance of Lady Diana Spencer and Prince Charles raised worldwide interest in Britain's Royal Family.  On 29th July 1981 millions crowded the London streets to catch a glimpse of the couple before they exchanged vows at St Paul’s Cathedral.  In the early years of her marriage Diana appeared a shy, private member of the British aristocracy, however, her grace and nobility won the hearts of the nation and she soon blossomed into the people’s princess.  Throwing herself into her royal duties exhibiting a warmth and concern for all those causes she supported, Diana became the most photographed member of the Royal Family.
