A Diana-themed Broadway musical and film opened in November.
It’s been 24 years since Princess Diana died tragically in a car crash. But if you’ve been to the theater or movies lately, it might seem as if the famed figure in British royalty, known as Lady Diana Spencer before she married Prince Charles, has hardly left us.
All this follows the global success of “The Crown” series on Netflix about the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, the last season of which paid close attention to the story of Diana. And there continues to be a steady stream of Diana books as well, with more to come. Due in 2022: “The Lady Di Look Book: What Diana Was Trying to Tell Us Through Her Clothes” , written by Eloise Moran, creator of the @ladydirevengelooks Instagram FB, -2.33% account.Ultimately, hers is just a great story.
Indeed, many have seen parallels between Diana and Harry’s wife, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, a former actress, particularly in terms of their struggles as royals and the way they both went public with those troubles.Robert Thompson, a pop-culture expert who’s director of Syracuse University’s Bleier Center for Television and Popular Culture, says the current boom in all things Diana speaks more to the fact humans are almost hard-wired to love fairy tales.
Thompson also says that Diana very much came to usher in the modern era of celebrity — and in being chased by paparazzi during that ill-fated car ride in Paris, she “met her death on the altar of celebrity,” he says. But the real point, he says, is that in a culture that so fragmented, our fascination with celebrities becomes the one thing that often unites us.
