Princess Diana’s forensic pathologist, Dr. Richard Shepherd, recently revealed some of the most bizarre questions he has received about the royal’s death.
After conducting a second autopsy on the Princess of Wales’ body, he was asked if Princess Diana was pregnant at the time of her death. Some people also wondered if the mom of two really looked beautiful in person and peaceful at the time of her death.
“I always made sure I never said anything – in all the case of public interest I was involved with – that hadn’t already appeared in the press. Pathologically, there was no evidence that Princess Diana was pregnant, but some women say they know they’re pregnant from the moment of conception. Was she one of those?” he told Daily Mail.
Dr. Shepherd also claimed that Princess Diana would’ve survived the car crash in Paris if only she had her seatbelt on. And if she wore it, she would’ve only suffered from a black eye and or a broken arm.
“Instead she was hurling forward with the weight of one and a half elephants, and the human body is not designed to suffer those forces. I wish I could say she would have died whatever happened but the fact is, if she had worn her seatbelt she would have been here for Prince William and Harry’s weddings,” he said.
Princess Diana’s driver, Henri Paul, was said to have alcohol in his system and it was twice the British drink-drive limit. He also died following the accident. The Princess of Wales’ boyfriend, Dodi Al Fayed, all passed away. It was only Princess Diana’s bodyguard, Trevor Rees, that survived.
Following her death, Prince William and Prince Harry blamed their mom’s demise on the paparazzi. Princess Diana was being hounded by the press in the tunnel just minutes before the crash. But Ken Wharfe, Princess Diana’s former bodyguard, said that the paparazzi didn’t cause the death of the People’s Princess.
“It’s in their interest to keep Diana alive and any other member of the royal family. It’s their bread and butter,” he told “The Royal Box.”
