Her father inherited the title Earl Spencer in 1975, thus making her Lady Diana. She was very fond of children and ultimately became a kindergarten teacher at the Young England School in London. Her marriage to Prince Charles, in 1981, was televised with people around the world tuning in to what was the 'wedding of the century'. In 1982 Prince William Arthur Phillip Louis was born, and three years later Prince Henry Charles Albert David was born. After that Diana became heavily involved in many charities, working with homeless people and those living with HIV and AIDS, as well as needy children. Over the years she became estranged from her husband and they were offically divorced in 1996. She died tragically in a car crash with her Egyptian boyfriend Dodi Al-Fayed after trying to escape the paparazzi on August 30, 1997.
