Diana trends as the world reacts to the Queen’s death

The passing of Queen Elizabeth II’s death is all that anyone can talk about, on and off social media and this has led to a number of related topics trending along with the hashtag “Queen Elizabeth”. One of the related topics that trended was “Diana” as people joked about how the late princess would react to seeing the Queen in the afterlife. 

Diana was the first wife of Charles, Prince of Wales and, therefore, held the title of the Princess of Wales. She remains one of the most popular members of the British Royal Family, even after her death and was Princes William and Harry’s mother.

She died on 31 August 1997, and her death has been the subject of many conspiracy theories. 

One of the most popular conspiracy theories surrounding her death was that the Queen ordered it to happen and that it was only made to look like a car accident to cover up what happened.

The theory was also linked to the widely held belief that Queen Elizabeth II did not like Diana and, therefore, did not approve of her marriage to Prince Charles.

It is for this reason that she has often been compared to Meghan Markle, who is said to have had a much worse experience of joining the royal family than Diana did.

Queen Elizabeth II died on Thursday evening, and her passing was confirmed by Buckingham Palace.

She died on Thursday afternoon following a long battle with ill-health since spending a night in hospital last October.

This after the 96-year-old’s doctors on Thursday expressed their concern for Her Majesty’s health and recommended she remain under medical supervision, following evaluation this morning,

Queen Elizabeth II’s closest family travelled to join the 96-year-old monarch on Thursday, after doctors placed her under medical supervision, prompting concern from British political and religious leaders.
