[post_page_title]From rags to riches[/post_page_title]
The Princess of Wales was by no means normal when she married into the monarchy. She was born into a noble family and grew up playing with some of her future brothers-in-law. However, although her upbringing might have been more upper class, there was still something incredibly normal about Diana.
She never gave off the impression that she was elitist, instead coming across as an average woman who was living the royal dream. American fans loved that, and they enjoyed imagining that she’d gone from rags to riches.
