I hope they finally spill the tea that #ThatFamily offed her.

Do you really believe that? I never really followed her case. All I know is that paparazzi chasing here caused the car crash.

Before I would've said, hell no. Who has the time

It was a combo of the paparazzi, DUI on her driver's part, and nobody wearing seatbelts. He was trying to outrun the paps who were in chase so was going double the speed limit for the tunnel (which was an accident black spot at the time, though I think after her death they put various other safety measures in) and he was drunk mixed on top of anti-depressants. He clipped another car switching lanes, lost control and had a head on collision with a pillar. At that speed the car didn't just stop, it ricocheted around in a way that caused other impacts.

While it can't be guaranteed seatbelts would have saved everyone, it would certainly have made the injuries much less severe and more survivable. I'm pretty sure that if anybody wanted to assassinate her they had more reliable methods of doing it.

I think it can be traced back to when the Queen approved the divorce, Charles worked hard at gaslighting Diana, making her paranoid, so she refused the royal security team because she thought they were spying on her and reporting back to him. If she had royal security, I don't think she would have been in the car in a high speed chase.

If you go down that route, I think the various folks involved in convincing Diana to do that Panorama interview would have to cop some blame. They very purposely fed her paranoia, to the point of falsifying various documents etc, in order to convince her of their own 'ally' status. If she didn't already totally distrust the Royal set up before, they certainly ensured she did after.
