LONDON – A photo of Princess Diana published in the Italian magazine Chi drew an irate response from the media in Britain yesterday. In the black-and-white photo Princess Di is being administered oxygen in the wreckage of the car crash that killed her August 31, 1997. Ironically, Britain’s normally shameless tabloid newspapers, the bane of Diana’s existence when she was alive, waxed most indignant over the photo.
”Shame on you,” scolded London’s tabloid conscience, The Sun.
Meanwhile The Daily Mirror accused Chi magazine’s editor, Umberto Brindani, of acting ”shamelessly.”
Not to be outdone, the Daily Express called the photo ”grotesque” and swore not to reprint it unless the other tabloids did.
What the Daily Express was willing to reprint was a story about Princess Di’s alleged affairs with John F. Kennedy Jr. and George W. Bush. That story, which was news about a year ago, first appeared in a book by Simone Simmons entitled Diana: The Last Word. Ms. Simmons was Diana’s personal energy healer, feng shui consultant, and tarot card reader.
According to Ms. Simmons, Princess Di had a rug-burn-producing, headboard-rattling, one-off with John F. Kennedy Jr. eleven years ago in a $3,200-a-night suite in Manhattan’s Carlyle Hotel. Mr. Kennedy, a bachelor at the time, had just founded George, an ill-starred, ill-named gossip magazine for which he wrote a celebrity-
interview column. He had hired the suite, later described by Diana as “rather inexpensive-looking,” in order to impress her into consenting to an interview. Diana consented to much more during a nine-hour-session that set the standard for in-depth interviews.
“It was lust at first site,” the princess later told Ms. Simmons. “As soon as he took out his Bic, I could feel the stirrings of long-denied passion rising in my bosoms. One thing led to another, and before I realized it, modesty was rather thin on the floor.”
Diana described Mr. Kennedy as “a real prince in bed, one of the best ever, right up there with Sting, Henry Kissinger, and that rugger from Wales.” In fact, she was so taken with America’s prince that she had Ms. Simmons prepare an astrological chart. Unfortunately, it indicated that while Diana and Mr. Kennedy were compatible, they were not compatible enough to sustain a relationship.
“Actually, that’s the same message she got when I prepared a chart for she and Charles,” wrote Ms. Simmons, who purports to be in possession of the infamous diary in which Diana rated her lovers.
Although Ms. Simmons turns coy whenever mention of that diary is made, she did write that the princess had nothing kind to say about George W. Bush, who was governor of Texas when he forced himself on Diana during a private barbeque in her honor at his Crawford, Texas, ranch in 1997.
“The princess didn’t fancy sex with men whose idea of romance meant doing it standing up behind the barn with their cowboy hats and boots on,” wrote Simmons. “Di had all she could do to keep from laughing when Mr. Bush told her that she had just ‘done the nasty’ with the next president of the United States. Charles had said the same thing—substituting “the next king of England” for “the next president”—the first time he and Diana had sex, in his mother’s bedroom.”
In other news, Michelle Wie quit the field in the John Deere Classic yesterday after her performance, eight over par for twenty-seven holes, had made her sick. Dozens of spectators were also struck ill by Ms. Wie’s performance.
