Who killed Princess Diana?

On August 30, 1997, a group of paparazzi huddled outside the Ritz hotel in Paris, hoping to get pictures of Diana and her boyfriend, Dodi al-Fayed. They then chased her car and her driver lost control in the Pont de l’Alma tunnel and crashed. Diana passed away on August 31, 1997, according to AP.

The most famous theories about Princess Diana’s death

However, many of her fans and sympathizers with her altruistic work were not happy when they learned that Princess Diana’s death was ruled an accident because they were convinced that something, or someone, was behind it.
Conspiracy theories take many forms, but they all claim to point to the same fundamental belief: that someone wanted to kill Diana and helped orchestrate that night’s fatal accident. Those conspiracies were so convincing and so pervasive that, with the help of the Daily Expresss and Egyptian businessman Mohamed al-Fayed, the Metropolitan Police was forced to launch Operation Paget.
25 years later Diana’s death is still unclear

This is research to establish if there was any truth to the theories. The operation lasted years, cost millions of pounds and ultimately concluded that the theories were completely unfounded, that everything that happened that night was an incredibly unfortunate accident, according to El Independiente.
The report examined 175 theories about what happened that night, some of them small and some of them profound. They found that none of them were true. However, we are sharing some that give you something to think about.
Was Princess Diana pregnant?

According to Mohamed al-Fayed, Diana’s alleged pregnancy was the motive for the murder. Diana was pregnant with al-Fayed’s son and that idea was distasteful to the British state. Fayed said the royal family, «could not accept that an Egyptian Muslim could one day be the stepfather of the future king of England.» It was then that hey planned to kill her.
Another revelation points out that Diana herself supposedly thought that they were going to kill her. And that, it seems, is true. The main evidence of this is a letter that was revealed by Paul Burrell, Diana’s butler, who said that she had given it to him for safekeeping, according to El Independiente.
Was it planned?

Likewise, it is alleged that the group of paparazzi chased and pushed Diana’s Mercedes to make the accident happen. Similarly, conspiracy theorists claim that her route was blocked and that she was driving at an unusual speed or that something had been tampered with the car.
Finally, according to El Independiente, investigators believe that doctors deliberately allowed Diana to die by not treating her properly. Or that it was all «a plan» orchestrated by Queen Elizabeth II, because it is said that she did not like Princess Diana and that she wanted to get her out of her way. Which theory do you believe?
