Princess Diana knew Queen Elizabeth long before she got engaged to Prince Charles, as she had grown up in royal circles. Her father was an equerry to the Queen, according to The Independent.

They had a polite but formal relationship, according to Diana’s biographer Andrew Morton. This is evident in an image of Diana and the Queen before the wedding, where they shared a kiss on the cheek.

Diana and the Queen were cordial, even when the princess’ marriage broke down. Here, they are pictured at Trooping the Colour in 1992, the same year of the Wales’ separation.

Diana died in a car accident in Paris on August 31, 1997. The monarch paid tribute to the princess with a speech, saying she “was an exceptional and gifted human being.”

“She was an exceptional and gifted human being. In good times and bad, she never lost her capacity to smile and laugh, nor to inspire others with her warmth and kindness,” the Queen said in a televised speech at Buckingham Palace on September 5, 1997.

“I admired and respected her — for her energy and commitment to others, and especially for her devotion to her two boys. This week at Balmoral, we have all been trying to help William and Harry come to terms with the devastating loss that they and the rest of us have suffered,” she added.
